Motivation Monday - Be A Happy Tree

It's a new week, I've already had a productive, kick butt Monday over here.  I hope you kick butt on your Monday, and your week, too - however you define "kicking butt".  ;)

Those last two are ones that I really need to try to remember.  

Setbacks are very hard on me, even crippling.  Also, I spend a lot of time thinking I'm bad at everything (including riding and most artistic things).  However, I'm certainly not satisfied being "bad at everything", I'm constantly trying to learn more, so I suppose there's hope!
