No Stressing Just Motivating

“No one is going to pick you. Pick yourself”-Seth Godin

This reminds me of the importance of not only believing in yourself but having the motivation to keep going.

Motivation is the key to reaching your goals. It’s what drives us to do things and complete our everyday tasks. Without it, I literally can’t do anything. That lack of motivation does nothing but negatively affect you. In terms of school, I would go a few weeks of literally doing nothing. It’s not like I don’t have the time, there’s just this unexplainable empty feeling that makes me not want to do anything school-related. But why? In the end, it only affects me. It’s like a never-ending cycle. You lose motivation so you stop doing your work, but now you have so much to catch up on. Now you just even more stressed as work just keeps getting piled up, so now you don’t feel like doing it even MORE. At this point, you wished life was a T.V show so you can just press pause.

The weird thing is that I do have my random bursts of productivity, but I have yet to define what exactly drives that. Basically, go and find what motivates you! Trust me, it probably would make life 10x easier. Save the gray hairs till your like 50 years old lol.
