Lack of Motivation

Resistance.

When you don't want to do something you have reached resistance.

When you reach resistance you will usually stop. The majority will at least.

Because we know resistance is hard, and have been taught to avoid hard times at all costs.

"There must be an easier way," you think.

You don't like the hard road, why would you? That shits hard.

But the truth is different from what you think.

At the very least there must be a more enjoyable way...

Others will say, "You're better off trying x."

Everyone is alike. They'll tell you to look elsewhere, maybe you'll find your passion there.

The passion that is required to overcome the inevitable resistance. But you won't find it.

How you do one thing is how you do everything.

More truth for you:

  • if you can't handle the current thing, you won't handle the new thing.

  • no one will care as much as you do about your passions or projects

  • few will cheer you along, even fewer will support you when it counts

But that shouldn't stop you.

It only means you need to increase your effort.

You have to set an example even when no one is watching.

Because if you continue to push onward, and overcome resistance.

They will start watching.

You > Resistance

You are the last in a line of survivors that came before you.

People that had no idea what they were doing either, but they figured it out.

Despite much higher levels of natural resistance, your ancestors did well enough to further their bloodline. All because they chose to fight through resistance.

Keep fighting.
