While this isn't exactly "local" or an actual event, it shouldn't be missed. JW Marriott opened Plant Riverside District in downtown Savannah, and it is pretty amazing. Over the last month I kept hearing about the new hotel and honestly, I thought "why would I go there?" Until I did...and I was so surprised and it was so enjoyable. You could spend an hour just in the lobby itself looking at the collection of minerals and dinosaur bones. Don't miss all the fountains they added on the waterfront side either. *Extra points if you find the slide!

A day trip to Savannah is just what you need. Enjoy lunch or dinner and take a stroll through Plant Riverside District.

How do you start your morning? Do you wake up in rush or do you take your time? Most of us start running a reel in our mind of all the things we need to do. However, if you changed your reel and made a list of all things you were grateful for and told yourself positive affirmations, your day may look differently. The more positivity that you encounter throughout the day, the more positive you’ll stay. It’s actually a proven fact!

Try putting positive quotes on your mirror so you can read them while you brush your teeth or blow dry your hair. Remind yourself that you’ve got this. You can do all the hard things. You can make that call that you’ve been putting off.

Seize the day!
