Right Brain Territory is a lovely website that re-creates those outdated motivational posters we see in offices or classrooms. You know the type, the silhouetted mountain climbers, the eagle soaring against the crisp blue sky, and yes, even the “hang in there” kitty. As well-intentioned as they may be, there is no denying the fact that these motivational posters are beginning to reach (or already have reached) “cliché” status. Instead, Right Brain Territory creates what it calls “Alternative Motivational Posters”!
As described on the website, “AMPs [Alternative Motivational Posters] are not intended to inspire one to get off the couch and run a marathon. We believe they serve as subtle reminders of our imperfect nature or of our personal victories. They can be our cheerleaders on good days and our coaches on bad ones. They are positive decorations for our occasionally monotonous lives.” Ahhh! What a burst of fresh air! While I was poking around the website, I also discovered they have a manifesto filled with deliciousness on the beauty of making things! (swoon!)
Here is a little taste…
You may not be a Picasso or a Mozart but you don’t have to be, just create to create. Create to remind yourself you’re still alive. Make stuff to inspire others to make something too. Create to learn a bit more about yourself.
Love! What excellent work! You can check out more of Right Brain Terrain’s posters here as well as other goodies that are sure to inspire and of course, motivate!
