Ring, ring!
Have you ever been asked by someone, 'Who lit that one's butt on fire?'
Self-motivation is sometimes hard to come by, at least at first glance. Sometimes it really does seem like people are busy working at nothing or hopelessly spinning their wheels but one thing I've been slow to realize for the last five years and especially the last two months or so is that everything that everyone does is building toward something.
Sure the planning is no Hagia Sophia, but eventually everyone gets those moments when they look at the pillars they've been making and decide, 'You know what, now's a good time for a roof' or they've been carrying their cornerstone for miles and decide, 'Here's as good a place as any'. From there comes the painful part: deciding what you have in the forefront that needs to switch places with the necessaries left on the back-burner. Taking stock and giving things an order is a task all on its own, one that demands attention at the start of every day. Ignoring that is part of what makes the actual doing of things so nerve-racking as they come up, and the eventual dropping bit by bit of responsibilities.
In the end we'll all have a few pet projects that might never even make it out of your head, but how many make it into the world largely depends on how much control you want to apply to your own life.
I'm still finding that out...
