So true and so important. I am so happy to be doing what I love and I try to encourage others to do the same but many are afraid of risk so choose to continue in a secure job even though they hate it. Thanks again for posting this

hello there.i really found this article interesting especially when you mentioned the *escapist activities. currently, i am a graduating student and finally next month will be my last term. anyways, though i am an achiever i started to feel weak for the past weeks. i can’t figure out the cause of my behavior but i rather stay in my room and watch online videos and read articles. anyways, i hope that you can still add interesting articles…

Hi Celes,

Great post and great writing, I have felt what you were feeling. I did something similar years a go. I started a business, I never worked so hard in my life, but I enjoyed every minute and always had energy for more. I believe it is all in our minds.

Motivation stems from doing. Taking action is the key.You can only be truly motivated with in these perimeters

1. Passion
2. Goals
3. Perseverance

Keeping these three character traits within your conscious mind will create endless motivation. All things start with the one who has a passion to achieve a particular outcome or dream. A burning desire kept Thomas Edison hungry enough to fail 10,000 times before he created electricity. It can do the same for you. Look within your heart for the source of direction and listen to the beat for instructions. Follow your intuition because that is your source speaking to you.

Peace!Love?Truth;

Wow. That was beautiful. I really enjoyed this Celes. Only this year have I myself discovered my true calling, and your words couldn’t be more right. It’s like when you’re doing what you love, time just doesn’t seem to matter and you’re in a perpetual state of bliss.

Hey Kay, I just saw your comment and I had to reply.

You really hit the nail on the head about how we complain about life and then don’t do anything about it. And how ‘life’ seems to beat the passion right out of us and we seem to just accept a lack luster, non-satisfying/fulfilling life as if it’s just the way it has to be.

I’m really glad to see you taking steps to push through this and make the necessary changes to live a life that is more in line with your true thirst for life, not just the accepted, mundane existence that many of us choose.

I hope the best in all of this! Eric

Your insight into excapist activities really strikes a nerve. I complain about not having enough free time and then when I do, I lay in front of the t.v. or head to the mall.

I used to have so many passions and interests but life can really beat it out of you. A few months ago, I was at the amusement park and kept riding a roller coaster, hoping it would bring out some feeling in me. Nothing.

So, now I am taking some radical steps to change my life. It’s hard to alternate between fear of change and a determination that something has to change.
