That's right, I'm posting this to notify all of my lack of motivation today. It's not that I don't WANT TO be motivated. It just feels like I've been doing barbell curls for hours and now I've just completely lost interest in what I'm doing. It seems like every day is so much the same in terms of what I do at this desk. Sitting...sitting here...well, spring break will soon be over and I can actually go back to teaching at schools. That will be fresh!
No-one really makes progress from continually doing the same thing, do they? Or do they? If someone keeps buying houses, flipping them, and selling them for double or triple, maybe they are making progress. But at some point, even he (or she) will feel unchallenged. From there, they may want to try with bigger buildings, or the same business in another country, or something similar with cars. I don't know. In my case, I'm not sure if I feel unchallenged or overwhelmed.
What is the worst situation? I think it's feeling so bored and un-stimulated by the very thing that we know we have to do. Finding a career, going back home, preparing documents, getting rid of things, organizing stuff. I've been hitting all of these hard every day to the point of exhaustion, and now all I can do is just turn off and leave it to my brain to send messages to my fingers to type these words. I just need to express myself and work through these emotions. I know it sounds cheesy, but it's really true. Expression is important for everyone. Isn't it? Is it? Isn't it? Everybody needs to whine a little right? Because after the whining, we get back to business. It's like kids. They fall off their bike, they cry their faces off, then they get up, brush off, jump back on and start pedaling (except the really wimpy ones who just want to go inside and do something "safer." Not that there's anything wrong with that.)
So am I done whining? Am I ready to jump back? Well, the thing is, I kind of want a new bike. I'm tired of these tassels sticking out of the handlebars and I don't want a little bell any more. I want a horn! Maybe not even a bike. Maybe a scooter. How about that? Yeah, a scooter! I'll keep the wheels, but lose the pedals and learn to balance & to push with my legs. A few minor changes and things will be fresh! Then I can move again. Then I can make my way back home. Now...where is that scooter?
Will the LION WEARING SLIPPERS get new wheels?? Stay tuned to find out!!
