🌟 Hello lovely! Welcome back to Monday Magic, a bitesized reflective prompt to help you start your week with intention.🌟
I hope you’re coming into this week refreshed and looking forward to what the coming days bring. Did you have a fun weekend and recharge a bit?
I went down a rabbit hole updating my website the last few days (https://zestfulzen.co.uk/), so mine wasn’t restful, but it sure was satisfying! I’m pleased with where I got to and I’ll dive back in again after I get my dreaded tax return done…

Your Monday Magic prompt
This week’s prompt:
What silver linings can I notice?
Actually, silver linings are my thing! I’m not sure if it’s innate or a product of my upbringing, but I can virtually always find the bright side to things not going as planned.
Couldn’t get a space in Zumba class? More time to get my tax return done. Gloomy grey skies on my walk? All the better for noticing the bright red berries around me.
Those jobs I didn’t get over the years? They led to better-fit opportunities and colleagues who became lasting friends. Taking this positive perspective serves me well.
I’d love to hear any reflections you have on this prompt. 💬
Wishing you a wonderful week ahead,

I’ll be watching for opportunities to see the silver linings. The first one…
We are pet sitting our granddog. She’s going on the dog bus for a play date-something she usually does in the afternoons. She’s scheduled for morning now which has changed my plan for today. The silver lining - I have uninterrupted time this morning to work on a workbook about Finding Your North Star. Morning is my best time, so this really is a silver lining. 💕
