Here’s why motivation is missing

live like you mean it
From 2014, playing around with fonts.

Motivation is missing the status quo. No one wakes up and stays, “I’m gonna nail mediocrity today. It’s my destiny.”

No.

One.

What’s missing from most transformation?

Motivation.

Motivation requires some sort of goal that you can’t stop thinking about.

Who has a goal they can’t stop thinking about, besides you?

Almost.

No.

One.

When an idea strikes

Wrote this while at Mass yesterday morning.

When an idea strikes, write it down.

An idea normally gets typed into notes or i text myself.

Yesterday morning didn’t want to get out the phone and start typing while sitting in the church pew.

Went to old-school paper and pen.

Motivation is the root solution or the root failure to anything you want in life.

Ambition vs Action

Yesterday this meme made me laugh. We’ve all been there, right, except for the obvious exceptions (i don’t even know what that means except there’s generally an exception to everything, except math).

Jeff, your actions must rise to your ambitions.

Big ambition paired with anything less than big actions is doomed.

Perhaps the Universe isn’t giving you what you want because you aren’t convinced that you really want it.

Why?

Catalyst trinity

Evolution is a long process for a species. For human habits, we do not have the luxury of taking a long time. Photo: yesterday walking to gym.

We initiate personal change under three general forces:

  1. It’s forced on you
  2. Someone helps you
  3. Self-initiative

Five Daily Blogs, Seriously?

What will you write about today?

Yesterday’s sunrise walk to the gym.

Every morning it’s the same.

What will you write about today?

Ten and two-thirds years since first writing those five differently-themed blog posts on April Fools Day 2009, it’s fascinating how each day continues to offer something to write about.

Can you imagine? Never taking a day off. No, it’s unimaginable. And yet it’s true.

There’s no easy answer.

Perhaps, there’s no answer at all.

How does the Sun unfailingly return each morning?

It just happens.

Writing, i suppose, is like that too.
