Can you find the way to do it again. What was it that got the ball rolling. What pushed you to want to do it the way you did it the last time. It can’t just leave you. It can just disappear. It has to still be there. Still somewhere inside of you. That urge to want to finish everything you have to finish while you can. The need to not waste the time you have when you have it. The ability to do all you can do for as long as you can. Do you really think all this effort will go in vain? Do you really think you won’t be rewarded for everything, or even for at least something? I don’t think you believe that, that to me just sounds like something you want to believe to use as an excuse to not do what you know you have to do. No excuses, no need for them. The last thing you need is for you to lie to yourself.
It’s easy to forget what initially sparked your motivation, especially when the days blur together, and the challenges pile up. But that spark, that initial drive, is still within you. It’s not gone, just buried under layers of doubt, fatigue, and the distractions of daily life. You just need to dig deep, reconnect with it, and reignite that fire.
Think back to the last time you felt unstoppable, when you were in the zone, and everything seemed to flow effortlessly. What was different then? What mindset were you in? It’s not just about pushing yourself for the sake of it; it’s about tapping into that inner drive that made you want to give it your all. That urge to finish what you started, to not waste a single moment, is still inside you. It’s just waiting for you to bring it back to the surface.
Believing that your efforts won’t pay off, that you won’t be rewarded, is a trap—a convenient excuse to avoid the hard work ahead. But deep down, you know that’s not true. Every bit of effort you put in moves you closer to your goals, even if it doesn’t always feel that way. The real reward isn’t just in the end result, but in knowing you gave it everything you had, without holding back or making excuses.
Lying to yourself, telling yourself that it’s okay to slack off or to give up, only creates more regret in the long run. The last thing you want is to look back and realize you let yourself down. So, stop with the excuses, stop trying to convince yourself that it’s okay to quit. Instead, focus on rediscovering that inner drive, that reason why you started in the first place, and let it guide you back to where you need to be.
