Wow! What wonderful day
The infection called enthusiasm.
This is the magical ingrediant that makes us productive. You can call it energy, vigor, dynamism whatever. But it is the energy.
This in turn is the direct of shoot of your confidence in yourself.
Many of us feel our energy levels are low so where do we summon this energy from. Well here is an exercise try it out for a month and give me a feed back.
Pick something that you really care about,it should be something that really excites you. Even to keep going once the intial romance wears off. Remember the last 15% of the race is crucial.for thats where fatigue sets in.
Now create a finish line, say its your book create a date to meet the publisher. In addition to your writing it would involve finding a publisher, an editor and maybe even a publicist, basically all the support system. This creates a momentum, a sense of excitement, a sense of anticipation thats what kicks up the enthusiasm.
There will be times when you go down, then you need a pep up charger, sometimes a cup of coffee is fine, but mostly staleness is recharged with fresh energy, interact with a friend who can energize you, i talk to my colleague Dr.Jyothi Rao, when she is down I hope I can charge her up.
Get in touch with your inner child. Lousie Hay actually swings, from a tree it is the child like anticipation, wonderment of life that keeps us from being cynical or jadded or falling back in our journey.
When there is a slip for gods sake don’t beat yourself, just look at the mirror and say”Buddy your the best, its so many miles to Babylon”and we get right back
