Handwritten Poems by Your Desk
Every home I've gone into has the written word hanging somewhere. Many people end up handwriting their favorite poems or even printing them with a nice font from you computer. But it's so much nicer to have a beautiful poem that you love written in calligraphy and combine it with an image that makes you get double the impact. When you see a beautiful image that you can choose for yourself (or even a personal photo or selfie) along with the words it's now artwork as well! And you don't have to go rummaging through your computer or phone to find that picture! So, get rid of those post-it notes with your motivational quote and gift yourself!

Inspirational and Motivational Quotes
Nowadays, with all that's going on in the world I do need an inspirational quote to help me deal with this strange world. Right above my desk I have the "Serenity Prayer" on the wall. Believe me, I read this quote many times while I'm reading the news, or battling with technology on my computer that doesn't want to cooperate. It's my stress relief mantra that keeps me going!
Motivational quotes also help me get into gear when I'm not feeling particularly inspired. I love funny quotes as well- and somehow, I never get tired of laughing when I read them!
