This is a thing that happens to all of us.
I haven’t posted here in a long while, why?
It’s simple – Excuses.
There’s no real reason for me to not post but there, it happened.
The following are my excuses:
• I’ve been to a vacation
• Had an argument with my girlfriend
• Moved my site to a new storage
• Worked on different projects
But the actual painful truth is that if I wanted, this post would’ve been up a long while ago. Each and every one of us is subject to the powers of laziness, some more than others.
It takes a great effort for a creator of any kind – writers, inventors, entrepreneurs and more, to just make the first step, and even more effort to stick with it.
We are simply people, beings of habits and routines, and when we pick up on a new one, we need to maintain it closely in order for it to actually stay for the long run. I haven’t done that with the posts.
I took a long time to make this one and gave myself all sorts of excuses as to why not now. This is just bad practice, I know it, and sometimes I can’t just avoid the pitfalls.
The thing is… I have a love – hate relationship with my qualities. I’m like an octopus; I do a little of everything and of every project that I think of. Some fail, and some stay, but regardless, I enjoy this chase and bounce between ideas since it keeps me on edge, sharp, and interested. The fallback of that is that some ideas that could’ve succeeded are being set aside for later before I gave them time to bloom.
The laziness of course doesn’t help.
And I want to say this here, for all of you that are currently reading this; even if you are lazy you can succeed. The reason we are lazy is that we lack the drive, passion and motivation to do certain things. With small goals, and small successes, we can give ourselves the motivation needed to continue on. And if that doesn’t do it, we should move to the next idea.
Often I find myself sitting down to work on a new idea, and my habits take me on a spiral to a different venue instead. It’s not necessarily a bad thing since from those occurrences sometimes I get a new idea. For the things that I work on, this is a bad habit since they don’t move forward much and their progress is inconsistent.
If you’re like me, you should take that into consideration when you work on different projects and give yourself enough time ahead of your deadline\goal since you will stray, it’s just who we are.
I hope this helped you,
See you in the next post,
Dekel
