There are moments when we think we need to stop.
Sometimes we think about escaping the natural world and our life cycles once and for all. For instance, we want to skip classes because we do not fancy coming to school and studying. On the other hand, life is much more significant than that.
There are days when we lack the motivation to continue what we have been doing. Either we are exhausted, or we no longer see any inspiration or eagerness to continue.
That is okay, and we all assumed that. But today, let's discuss how we can cope with this and maintain the habits and purposes we want to achieve. There are reasons behind the outbursts and the opposing views that run through our heads. Sometimes occurrences hit a nerve that seemingly pushes you backward, even when you are supposed to be moving forward.
Here, I made a list of why we stop doing the things we usually do or pause from our life routines:
You think you are no longer happy doing it. Yeah, this is one of the primary speculations behind it. A person will feel like giving up on their careers or jobs because they are not happy doing it all over again.
You think you need to take risks. Sometimes people lack interest in something because they believe it is too easy or comfortable.
You think you are not progressing forward. People are afraid of being left behind. Overthinking and anxiety will make you feel like you are not moving forward or that no improvements are happening around you. And admit it or not, you often think about this.
You are bored. When you are doing the same routines for years, you will feel uninterested most of the time. You will start thinking about a switch or improvement.
Can you relate to the reasons I mentioned above? I think we all experience those things, especially when we are having an anxiety attack. Too many worries and negative thoughts will surely make you feel the urge to stop and escape. On the contrary, I mentioned that we should always show up in life.
You can never get the improvement you want if you keep ignoring the things you used to do. I say, show up even if you don't like it. It would be best to set aside the negative thoughts and start the minor changes in your routines. In doing so, you can count on yourself again. Now, here is the list of why it is crucial to keep looking at the bigger picture.
You started for a reason. You know exactly why you started, even if it is about your career, job, or hobby. Think about it every time you feel tired and bored. It's best to know what you want to achieve and the main goal that led you to start walking down the path you're on now.
There are good things left. Sometimes you focus on the opposing sides of what you are doing. You forget to consider the little things that matter the most. Look at the possibilities and find the jar of hope before you give up. Find your happiness. You can still step forward and continue even if you think you don't like it anymore. Look for the joy you felt when you started. And choose to hold on to it, one way or another.
Motivation and inspiration are everywhere. You can inspire yourself through reflecting. Sometimes it takes courage and confidence to say that you can motivate yourself. It happens. A person can motivate and inspire himself as long as he finds the perfect set of reasons.
With everything I mentioned, I guess you can continue living the life you are living. There is no problem in taking a break once in a while. We understand that you sometimes feel exhausted, but I hope I helped you think more clearly. There is still a jar of hope out there.
Do not give up your life; keep showing up. Escaping will not make things better. There are ways to keep moving forward.
