How We Keep Pushing Against All Odds
Originally published at https://tavian.blog
It is sometimes quite hard to remain motivated, especially when there is no one around to encourage you. There is a quote that goes something like, “If your goal does not scare you, it is not big enough.” Well, a couple of months ago, I was all for it, but not so much now.
As a creator, I am always thinking of the next project. And it is a great feeling to start something new. However, my goals often feel too large, and my motivation does not measure up to them.
Listening to a friend talk about how he is pushing for his goals made me feel revived again. But I know this feeling will not last. It was nice to hear how he was applying himself every day, pushing against all the odds for his big goals.
The Size Of The Goal Does Not Matter
Although we do not always feel like it, we are incredibly resilient creatures. Humans have had to survive under the most extreme conditions and have worked together to push through.
Things like famines, natural disasters and diseases have time and time come against us. Yet somehow, repeatedly, we have proven that we can push through against all odds. This pandemic will soon pass and will serve as another sign that we are stronger than we think we are.
