Good morning bookies and happy Monday! Today we are all about making progress, whether that be in your personal life our your professional one, or maybe even both perhaps. Either way, it is time to make some progress.
          
          "You don't make progress by standing on the sidelines, whimpering and complaining. You make progress by implementing ideas." 
          
                                                                               -Shirley Chisholm 
          
          
          Bookies, this week let's not stand on the sidelines complaining about things. Don't step to the side and cower, feel your feelings, yes, but don't run. Gather yourself and your ideas and go with them. You have to move forward and go in your way, show off your beautiful brain power and take the world over! This doesn't mean just in the corporate world either, this can be in your personal life as well. Maybe you want to start a business and you've made every excuse in the book, well this is your sign to go ahead and get your ideas together. Maybe you wanted to try out for something new, but have found a reason not to every time it came up, well GO FOR IT! There is no way to make progress sitting stagnant with excuses, get up and make your progress! Show us your Black Girl Magic.

          Question: Which independent country has the most colors in its flag?

          Remember no cheating!! This is supposed to be fun and there is no fun if you all are cheating!

@Synevasion Lol we're so glad you didn't run to the internet to get the answer, but the day after Christmas is called Boxing Day.  The answer to the trivia question is Belize btw.

I can’t even answer without cheating cause I’m French and I don’t think we actually have a name for the day after Christmas… We just call it the day after Christmas or 26th.

Good morning bookies! Today is #TalkAboutItTuesday so let's hear your thoughts! Today's topic is main characters, is there a such thing as too many/ How many are ideal for you? Do too many main characters take away from the plot of the story for you? Does having too many main characters make the story more realistic or too phony? 
          Tell us your thoughts bookies!

EclipsedVoices

@Almighty_Emoji so there IS a such thing as too many! But yes, definitely agree, if it is done right having many is a good thing. We hope that works out well for you :)

@EclipsedVoices I feel like if done right having many Mc's could be a good thing. Unless of course there's like 10 or 20. I plan to try 5 in the future.
