Inspiration and motivation I feel are kind of the same thing; most people use them interchangeably. I know I do. I feel like to get motivated you need to be inspired. This week I have made a conscious effort to do more with my life. Do you ever feel like life is just passing you by and you are not actively participating? I feel that way a lot and I don't want to continue feeling that way. I have made the decision to be more active and take control of my life instead of just watching it go by.
My personal examples are with school; I normally get by doing the bare minimum and it has worked for me all of my life. I have always gotten good grades. I don't want to do that anymore, I want to reach my full potential.
That is what I am getting at, reaching our full potential. Sure, you can get by in life just doing the bare minimum, but what about actually being active and doing the assigned readings every night and not slacking off when you get home and watching trashy reality television shows till midnight? (I am totally guilty of this, practically every night. It is not something I am proud of.) I am tired of slacking and want to get shit done.
This week I have proposed to myself to go to the gym everyday in between my afternoon classes that way I don't have an excuse as to why I am not going in the evening because I am tired. This is a small step but so metaphorical for my life. I always find excuses not to do things because I am tired or this or that.
Here's to a great week and the beginning of something new? That is why we love fall right? The start of a new season and endless possibilities...
Happy productivity!
