I always have trouble with motivation and willpower, That person in my head that’s a dreamer with amazing ideas and great goals is often silenced by the pessimist, the realist, or the guy that says fuck it just chill.
Recently I’ve found a strategy that’s helped me a lot which is I bought a whiteboard and put it on my bedroom wall and wrote out the title: Judge your present self from the perspective of your ideal future self. I don’t do this all the time and I’m not perfect but now I find myself being more objective in the face of hard decisions, I think to myself if this is really a point that I want to add to the story of my life.
It has helped me think more optimistically but not just blind optimism, it helps focus that positive energy on the things that I believe matter.
So to all of you who are on your paths through life, keep fighting to be the person you want to be.
Warriors are not born, they are grown
