To Anyone Who Thinks They’re Falling Behind

You don't require more motivation. You don't have to be motivated to do anything. You don't have to read another list or post on how you're not doing enough.

We think that we're able to study enough books and small Pinterest quotes and the switch in our brains will trigger us to take action. But, in reality, here's the one thing nobody discusses when it is about success, motivation, willpower, goals, and productivity, as well as the other buzzwords that have gained popularity the idea that you're as you are until you're no longer. Change is what you choose to change. You implement your ideas in action during the moment which is most appropriate. This is the way it works.

The thing I believe we all require more than anything else is the right to be who we want to be when we are there.

You're not a machine. You cannot just invent motivation in the absence of it. Sometimes, you're experiencing something. Sometimes, life happens. Life! Do you remember that time in your life? Yes, it helps you learn things and occasionally forces you to go all the way to learn the most important lessons. You can't be in control of every aspect. You could get up every morning at 5 am until you're exhausted and broken If the painting or the words or the idea doesn't wish to be realized and they don't, they won't. You are able to show up each day with your best goals however If it's not your time, it's not the moment. You must give yourself permission to be human.

Sometimes, your novel isn't ready to be completed because you've not found the source of inspiration for your protagonist yet. Sometimes you'll need two years of experience before you are able to turn your work into something that is authentic, real, and honest to others. Sometimes, you're not in love because what you want to know about yourself can only be uncovered by the solitude of your own. There are times when you've not had the pleasure of meeting your next companion. Sometimes your sorrow engulfs you because one day it'll be the foundation on which you create your future.

We all know that our perceptions can't always be controlled. However, we do not pretend to know this fact. We are constantly trying to control and manipulate our lives, turning our creativity into a game in which we are successful, slashing success because people say they do, and dealing with emotions and uncertainties as if they are linear processes.

It is not possible to play your way through the system that you live in. You can't. You can't control every aspect and outcome in order to not surrender to the unpredictability and uncertainty of something beyond what you know. This is the essence of being present that you show up the way you are right now and let that be enough.

But, we don't behave in a manner that is supportive of this way of life. We are occupied with productivity tools and 30-point lists of ways to more effectively unleash our instinctual, human urges. We tend to forget that we are who we are until we're no longer. We're all the same until we're transformed. We can take that change slightly by setting up healthy habits and by showing how we live our lives in a way that promotes change, but we aren't able to be game-maker. Timing is the only thing we tend to fail to acknowledge.

Things can be dark until they're not. A lot of our sadness is rooted in the idea we ought to be different from what we currently are. We think we can control our lives -but our self-loathing as well as self-doubt stems from the belief that we are able to alter our lives or be wealthier, hotter, or even happier. Self-responsibility can be empowering, but it is often a cause of feelings of bitterness and resentment that no one should carry in their own lives. We must put forth our best effort and allow everything to happen as it will and not be so personally and emotionally tied to the outcomes. Opportunities don't always show up as we imagine they are going to.

You don't require any more motivation or encouragement to live the life you desire. You should not feel embarrassed by the notion it's not enough. You must put aside people who are in completely different situations and life stages than you. that you're not doing enough or aren't good enough. It's time to let your timing do what it's supposed to do. You must be able to identify opportunities where you spot obstacles. It's important to recognize that what's happening currently happening will be an inspiration in the future. It is important to realize that where you are at the moment will be your identity in the future.

Sometimes, we're not quite the person we want to be to control the desires we've been pursuing. Sometimes, we must allow ourselves to evolve to the position where we're able to let our desires take place.

Let's claim that whatever you'd like you're willing to pay for it. That's why you're suffering to get it. How about relaxing? Perhaps your motivation isn't really the issue, but rather that you push an object up a mountain which only gets bigger with each push.

There's a magical force that is beyond us that operates in ways we don't know. It's impossible to manipulate it. We can't 10-point list it. We aren't able to control it. It's best to allow it to happen, to take a break for a second and stop beating ourselves into oblivion, and let the wheels turn according to their own schedule. Someday, this point will become clear. Be patient.

Allow yourself to believe that.
