Oh Happy Day! Happy Monday everyone! I don’t know why but I am really feelin’ good these days. Scratch that, I know why. There’s a lot happening in the GEMpire (more on that later) so it’s just nice to see the vision and hard work of the last seven years start to pay off.

So I was working out this morning (more on that in a bit too) and came home to walk the dog. I popped in my ear buds and the song cued up was Jennifer Hudson singing, “And I am Telling You I’m Not Going”.  Now I’ve heard that song a thousand times but for some reason it took me back. Way, way back to a difficult time. So why am I smiling then? For that answer, you need to listen to today’s Monday Morning Motivation!
