Click Here for Giveaways, Coupon Codes and More!

Need a kick in the pants to get you going in the right direction? Pure Soapbox…a cleansing jolt of perspective, motivation, and humorby Kimberlie Dykeman may be just the thing. This humorous inspirational book is filled with page after page of motivational tidbits, perfect for busy people who need to pause and get the occasional boost. Dykeman’s book is easy to read, quick to digest, and very effective. She offers 65 inspirational 1- to 2-page encouragements to lift your spirits, make you laugh, and keep you going. Her energy-filled writings come from her experiences as a lifestyle coach and motivational speaker, and motivate she will!

I laughed my way through this book while finding some great inspiration. (It was like hanging out with my sister. In fact, maybe Kimberlie is somehow related. I KNEW my sister was adopted…can’t wait to tell her.) I’m sure you’ll love this book too–sure beats Prozac! And since each chapter is short, you can read one or two, or if you’re waiting for an oil change or a dentist appointment, you may just get through half the book. (Can you imagine the look on your dentist’s face when you come bounding in, filled with enthusiasm for your root canal?)

This sounds like an awesome read, and I’d so love to be the winner. Please enter me! =)

Oh, and you opened a major can of worms with you “what do you need motivation to do?” question. LOL Hmm, let’s see….. dishes, folding the laundry, a good thorough top to bottom house cleaning and organizing, cleaning my car, etc etc etc. LOL I hate to do all of these things, and it’s a constant struggle to stay motivated and stay on top of them. Ugh. I was not born to be a housewife who actually had to take care of the house. Why can’t I be rich so I can pay someone else to do it?!?!?!

I could use a push (maybe literally!) to get back into having a regular, systematic varied exercise routine. This laugh-while-you-read-it books sounds like just what the doctor ordered for my exercise inertia. I had to laugh when you mentioned a dental appointment - because that’s where I was at 8 am today! Happily I was there just for a check-up and cleaning - no root canal required, thank goodness!

I desperately need to get my act together on decluttering and organizing - it’s really out of control around here and I always get overwhelmed before I even make a dent. I could say it’s because the kids distract me, but it’s more than that and I know it… VERY frustrating.
