It's another blessed Saturday to be alive, kicking and blessed, as another weekend is upon us. It's a day to rest for some people and for others, it's just another day to continue hustling for their daily bread in other to put food on the table for their families. In this case am part of the former who need that rest today.
Picking up my phone and scrolling through the communities and reading through blogs since it's been awhile I really had time to sit and write something, I came across the prompt "What do you do when you need Motivation". It was an interesting theme because I have quite a few things I do when I really need motivation and the first on the list is prayer.
The truth is, am not a too spiritual person but I also know that in everything I do, no matter what it is, I need to involve God in it and even if it won't be a long and lengthy prayer that will take like 30 minutes to 1 hour, I still take time to communicate with my creator for few minutes and it must not be with my eyes closed because It can be anytime and anywhere.
My second source of motivation is reading, Yes I love reading alot whenever I get the chance and time. I have a very busy schedule always but I still try to squeeze time for reading, no matter how little the time frame will be and most times I tend to go online to read different motivational stories about people and how they were able to overcome their situation. The internet has alot of those motivational stories that even align with your situations and conditions, so why not steel your resolve and overcome your situation just as others did.
Reading brings fresh and new insight to me, making me figure out different ways to handle old and new problems, the more I read motivational stories, educative and intellectual books that feed the mind and helps one break out of their shell, the more I want to apply that principle, technique and procedures to my own situations. And last but not the least, music is another source of motivation to me.
You're wondering how music can be a source of motivation for somebody right, but to me I find solace, renewed strength and focus at times when I listen to music. There are particular genre of music that I listen to that helps me refocus my mindset and push me in another direction of elevated rational emotions.
I appreciate you taking your time to read and engage in this post. Be blessed and have a nice day guys.
