Motivation

2013. december 27., péntek 13:17

I usually struggle to feel motivated, it’s not something that comes easily to me but currently I have heaps of it. This is partly down the fact that it’s about to be a new year, a fresh start and a chance to refocus. It’s mostly a reaction to the recent death of my Grandparents, which has put a world of things into perspective. As devastating of a blow as that was, it has really helped me focus on what’s truly important and given me a general feeling of “stop wasting time”. When I think about everything that they accomplished and how many lives they touched, frankly I’m disappointed in myself.

A number if things that I’ve been unsure about doing, on the fence about or just waiting until there’s “a better time to do it” - I’m now all the more decided on. Moving in with my partner and son is a must this year, likewise career progression and development of personal projects are key objectives for 2014. A month ago I was trying to decide which video games and poker formats I will play next year, or whether I should focus on cardio, strength or tone when working out. Now those choices seem trivial by comparison.  

By far my largest fear is dying without accomplishing anything substantial. Yes, the definition of that varies greatly from one person to another - I already have a son and for some that will be a joy they never experience. But until I can sit back a honestly say to myself “I have done great things, I will not be forgotten” I won’t be satisfied. So next year will be the first of many years where I’m dedicated to the long term goals, the bigger picture and above all not wasting any time.
