The Simple Secret to Finally Finding True Motivation
It takes one small thing
Have you ever had this moment happen to you?
I’m sure you have.
You might have it once a month, once a week, maybe daily depending on how aware you are of your own circumstances.
What moment am I talking about?
That moment where you think to yourself “How did I get here?” or “What the hell have I been doing with my life?”
You don’t necessarily have a bad life, but you find yourself in this prison of banality, this lukewarm lifestyle you just found yourself in over a period of time.
Most people stay there. Everyone has dreams, but we settle for less. Not only do we settle for less, but we start to tell ourselves stories, rationalizations, about why we settled.
“I’m content with what I have.” Maybe. I don’t know you. But maybe you’re hiding.
“Life isn’t all about chasing your dreams.” Sure isn’t. But it’s definitely not all about spending the vast majority of your time doing things you don’t want — a job you don’t like, gaps of time lost with errands and commutes, a sliver of time on the weekend to enjoy yourself.
