Read This When You Don’t Feel Motivated
on: May 03, 2019, 01:08:08 AM



There's nothing more regrettable than having your mind loaded with clashing contemplations while confronting commitments that need your prompt consideration. You know the minute when you're at long last prepared to make that stride, and afterward a circumstance emerges that drives you to put your arrangements on hold?

Now and then it's a separation, and the agony is intense to the point that you're numb to everything throughout everyday life. You feel useless in light of the fact that regardless of what sort of conclusion they gave you, they were an enormous wellspring of inspiration. Presently you're lost, and you're addressing if what you needed is even worth seeking after any longer. Recollections of cherishing this individual brutally plague your contemplations, so much that your body throbs and you feel as if you could pass on from an unexpected heart failure.

It's at last payday, however when the immediate store hits, your bank hauls out more cash than you anticipated. You get a bill via the post office that was greater than you expected, yet lease must be paid, and now you don't have a clue how you're going to endure to the following pay day. Your supervisor gives you less hours this week, rather than the hours you requested, and now you feel deceived at work since it's been a progressing issue.

The greater part of the pressure we manage in life is well-established, and in case you're in any way similar to me, a large portion of what occupies room in your mind is your own nervousness neutralizing you. You play out the most noticeably awful conceivable situations in your mind, and sufficiently interesting, they never occur, yet despite everything you shaved minutes off of your life by stressing to no end.

Inspiration is something that goes back and forth. It's whimsical like the individual who is into you one minute and afterward leaves your messages on read in light of the fact that the individual they're really keen on chosen to message them back. That is the reason I don't depend on it. Inspiration has its own plan. Fortunately for me, I have my own.

You get up and go to work every day. You take sick days off here and there. Maybe you’ve even convinced your doctor to write you a sick notice so you could be excused from work to have a mental health day. As for the “lucky” ones that joined the military , we can only dream of being able to take a day off.

Regardless of whether you hate or love your job, if you don’t show up, you’ll be fired. Oh, and I’m sure the interviewer will be perfectly understanding after your previous employer explains why they fired you from that job.

I think you should abandon the need to feel “motivated” to do something. You don’t need it to punch a clock at a job you don’t even like, so why do you rely on it when it comes to doing what you love? We do things we don’t even like even though we don’t feel like doing them, yet we put off what we love until “tomorrow,” which turns into “one of these days.”

Let me tell you something about the future that almost no one knows — it doesn’t exist. By the time the future arrives, it will be “right now.” The future isn’t some far off place where things get better once it arrives, and you can’t rely on “I’ll do it tomorrow” if you can’t even do it now.

We’re frugal with our money and careful with what we put into our bodies, but we throw away the one thing that we can never get back. We throw away every second that fills each present moment as if we can get a refund on the time we didn’t use wisely.

Time exists for us, yet we don’t even realize it because our pain has us living in the past. We overlook the present moment because our anxiety convinced us buy the lie that our future is more promising, when there’s no proof that it even exists.

When you rely on motivation to get you going, you’re placing your faith in something that evaporates quickly. Motivation is the willingness to do something, but that willingness goes out the door in those moments where the noise in your mind is deafening and the pain has you feeling helpless. When the belief you had in yourself is shaken and you can’t think clearly, how does one get motivated?

Trying to rekindle motivation is pointless. It’s a thankless hobby that almost never works, and if it does work, it lasts temporarily or until the next trigger sends you over the edge again.

Drive, on the other hand, is the mother of motivation. Drive is that still, small voice that reminds you of why you got started in the first place. It makes you focus on the rise and fall of your chest as you breathe inward and outward. It reminds you of that thing beating in your chest called “purpose.”

When you’re driven to do something, you’ll keep going no matter how crazy life gets or how much pain you’re in. Drive is the reason why you keep running when you have cramps. The cramps go away, I promise. You just have to keep running.

Some people focus on the finish line , while others look down at their feet and concentrate on the rhythm of placing one foot in front of the other.

Whatever you do, don’t break the rhythm. The sound of the rhythm WILL replace the noise of the conflicting thoughts, and the joy you get from doing the thing that you love WILL replace the pain and anxiety.

Please, keep going.
