Motivation Monday #6: And Then I Don’t


On days like today, it’s not about what I know or feel. On a hot morning in early August it’s about getting shit done because shit needs to be done. You know? And honestly, more often than I’d like, it’s about doing the tasks and work so I don’t hate myself later. This post is a good example. I missed a few days last week and hated myself for it. Today, I’m not suddenly more ready or prepared, not buzzing with motivation or desire to pump out “THE BEST BLOG POST OF ALL THE BLOG POSTS!!” Nope. Today is about being at peace with myself. And peace is my biggest motivator of all.

(As for last week, in my attempt to “game-i-fy” my work, I’m making healthy progress. Gimme another week and I’ll have the full update (5b). Again, full details to come.)

I am a writer and artist in the early stages of my trek. I spent 20 years trying to be who I thought I needed to be, and now I am running after who I am. Fearless Grit is my space to document and share the process.
