Motivation

It's difficult to stay motivated. It helps when there is an exciting event, occasion, trip, work project or new adventure that can keep me motivated to get through whatever I have to get through now, because I know there's something else out there that will make it all worthwhile in the end. Staying positive is key. However, it's just hard to remind myself that getting through what I am trying to get through now won't hurt me when I actually get to that exciting part. Will it dampen my spirit? Crush my positivity? Make me a stronger person? I'm not sure. Everything's a trade off, I just want to make sure what I'm trading is actually worth it. I don't like sitting at this desk and wishing I was running through ponderosa pines with my lungs pounding. At this desk, my lungs are pissed off. I have a nice view though.

In any event, I fall asleep next to an angel every night, who needs me more than I need myself. I can put up with all this.
