Freakin’ (Great Links) Friday: Installment 15

Alright, so I have to admit I couldn’t keep the sausage pictures going. There’s just not that many free stock photos of sausage links! We’re moving on to chain links, people. Just go with it.

Happy Friday! The sun is shining here in NY, it’s been a short work week, and I have a super-fun weekend ahead of me full of funniness, family time, and culture. What could be bad? Answer: nothing!

Here are your links (or my links, but I’m not too territorial with ‘em):

  • Gotta start with a shout-out to Carolyn of A Beautiful Ripple Effect for mentioning moi in her Monday Inspiration post! I also loved the other links she listed, so this isn’t total self-promotion here – only partial.
  • 10 Tips for the Creative Entrepreneur made me realize that I was a musepreneur. Are you?
  • Pecannoot might be my new favorite blog, focusing solely on art that represents “abundance.” I almost wanted to keep this secret since I have a feeling that a lot of future Motivation Mondays will come from this site – but I’m both a sharer and a carer, so enjoy it!
  • Jamie of Starshyne Productions strikes gold again with Secret #6: Conquering Saboteurs. Click on it to see what you need to do beyond “just showing up” so you can really set yourself up for success.
  • Kelly Rae Roberts is also here again, this time with taking time. I’d love to be able to both be more in tune to what my body is telling me as well as really pushing myself throuh the uncomfortable feelings. It’s just so nice and cozy staying in The Comfort Zone, it’s tough to force your way out of it.
  • Awake at the Wheel ’s Recession Proof Jobs, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny is a great article to read again and again when you’re just too scared to make the leap to be an entrepreneur – but you know that you should.
  • Achieve Your Dreams Despite Pressures of Work and Family by Zen Habits is a great time management article as well as a great kick in the pants.
  • The funniest link of the week has to go to www.thefuckingweather.com. Just trust me. And yes, it’s rated PG13 for language.
  • OK, here’s where the real, true self-promotion comes in. If you’re in NYC or know peeps that are, help me get a rockin’ audience for Luke’s show, To Be Continued, at the Magnet Theater on Sunday, March 8th at 8p. All I need to say is this: staged reading of a NEW episode of The Golden Girls. I sing the theme song and Guest Star, but that’s the least of it. My husband is a 32-year-old straight man stuck in the body of a Golden Girls scriptwriter. The show is dead-on and dead awesome. I don’t know what “dead awesome” means, but it’s more than awesome.
  • Last but not least in the self-promotion series is to direct your attention to The Interview Game (please play!), the permanent page that links to all of the amazing people who answered random/inspiring/weird/thought-provoking/soul-searching questions that I gave them. I think we’re up to 16 now, and it’ll be constantly growing. If you want to get in on the fun, comment here and I’ll throw some random/inspiring/weird/thought-provoking/soul-searching  questions your way, too.

There will be no posts up this weekend, but don’t miss me for too long – come back on Monday to get your weekly dose of inspiration!

    Hey Michelle,

    Thanks for the link to the “10 tips for a creative entrepreneur”. I, like you normally stay away from the top ten lists. But these tips were excellent. I am definitely a musepreneur, and such a rebel when it comes to business plans and practical things. My brain just says “no” and I have to find creative approaches to getting things done.

    Your links are great and i’ll continue to read them, especially for when I am feeling stuck.

    Sophie

    Aw, thanks Sophie! I’m home sick today and your comment made me happy. So glad you found the links helpful! FYI – I’ll continue to post the links as I find them in real time on my Twitter feed, so if you want some links prior to Friday just check my tweets. Hugs!
