“Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.” ― Mark Twain
“Your ‘frog’ is your biggest, most important task, the one you are most likely to procrastinate on.” —Brian Tracy from the book: Eat That Frog
Brian Tracy’s rules for Eating Frogs
1. If you have to eat two frogs, eat the ugliest one first.
2. If you have to eat a live frog at all, it doesn’t pay to sit and look at it for very long.
What’s your frog today??? Mine is paperwork…Gulp!

I think that’s a picture of a toad. I never eat toads–might get warts on my tongue!

How can you tell a frog from a toad? (Good thing I’ve decided not to eat him–just kiss him!?–warts are not good for our complexion!)

Wouldn’t the frog prefer you to procraste?
Anyway, I’m a vegetarian, so can’t eat frogs…
May my excuses never grow less 🙂

LOL! I guess I never looked at it from the frog’s point of view! Maybe I should kiss him instead?

That’s great! I need to read that book! My frog today is actually a sewing project. You would think that I hate to sew the way I’ve been putting it off. I think I just don’t like being stuck in the basement when I sew, but today is a rainy day. 🙂

My sister brings her sewing machine outside on nice days. You might try that.

I actually thought of that as I was writing that comment! I think I’ll try it! 🙂

Thank you for starting my day with a smile. Thank heavens there are few frogs in my life right now.
