Success

Small Successes
Motivate
Toward Larger Ones.


In a previous post, I talked about procrastination.  I'm really good at it.  And it breeds itself of itself, which makes it tough to "beat" it.

But when I truly get myself structured into a "plan" or heading toward some goal, any goal, it feels So Good when I start checking those things off my list.  One thing crossed off leads to another undertaking... then another.  I had one of those days yesterday.  And it felt so good to make progress in a few areas, if only small ones, of my life.

I have been on another... more personal... journey lately.  One that is really, really hard for me.  The motivation piece totally eludes me.  Even the small successes are only brief in motivating force... and then they quickly dwindle. 

But if I stop and really concentrate... dig deep... I can feel it.  Niggling around in the depths of my dusty corners in my brain.  I feel that little, itty, bitty swelling of "I did it!" or "I'm doing it!".  I just need to shine some light on those feelings and nourish them a bit.

Hopefully they will continue to grow.
