RE: How to get out of a funk?

in #psychology7 years ago

Actually to be very honest, I never had funks and I wonder how people can have them.
So for me, I am a religious person and I never ever do anything which I am not sure of that I will get rewarded for, so that's reason enough to stay motivated with whatever I do.
Secondly, I am a health and sport orientated person, so my life circles around this both. Again I don't have to motivate myself, because I love what I do. I mean, I eat healthy and never was into fast food crap, but the healthier I eat the more I hate unhealthy food. So there is no reason to motivate myself to eat and live healthy, because I love eating and living healthy.
Than, I do lift some heavy iron, and there are days, where the gravitity seems to be stronger than on other days, but because I love lifting heavy stuff, even these days I don't need to motivate myself.
I used to work as a construction worker, I hated every aspect of the job, but as I had a couple of children at home waiting for their daily bread, I never got into a funk.
So my humble advice, do things you love. And even if you have to do things you dislike or even hate, look at the reasons why you are doing them and just see them as the path to your goal.
