I am feeling uninspired this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone else? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also have been feeling tired and rundown from just trying to keep up with all the things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard finding that balance between working towards your goals and taking time for rest and fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I often find when I do take some downtime, for example, watch a tv show I enjoy, I\u2019ll feel like I should be being productive or working on my goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have gotten better about this but it still happens and it\u2019s been very noticeable recently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, I am sitting here trying to write this blog and my mind is all over the place and then I drift off, zoning out. That\u2019s when I really know I am tired and forcing myself to work or \u201cdo something\u201d is futile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s so hard. There are so many things I want to do and want to accomplish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know from experience and what others say that if I take that break, I\u2019ll come back more recharged, refreshed and more productive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also think there\u2019s a question in there too though if there\u2019s so much resistance to doing something \u2013 is it more than just being tired? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certainly there\u2019s the concept of doing the hard thing first. \u201cEat the frog.\u201d That sometimes there are things that just are not \u201cfun\u201d to do or maybe we need to just get started, get some inertia going and once we do it gets a little easier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But sometimes maybe it\u2019s something we should reconsider if we really even want to do or taking it off the to-do list all together! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think another point in this is that things \u2013 life<\/em>\u2013 are constantly changing and evolving and what we once thought was important may no longer be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also am working on trusting the process, trusting the universe, rather than forcing things so much. Not that that means I can just sit around, Netflix binge and things will \u201cjust happen\u201d for me, but maybe I don\u2019t need to work so hard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remember hearing that on a podcast as well. That sometimes we want to sit down and figure a problem out or get a task done, but rather it\u2019s better to take a break, get outside, change our environment, move our bodies, and suddenly the answer comes to us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, it\u2019s often quite ironic how I do get signs where I see, hear, or read something that resonates completely with all of this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, in my Goddess Academy journal, today\u2019s note spoke to the idea of wanting to rush the results, not enjoying the journey, being impatient, all of which can make us unhappy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By staying patient, focusing on each day at a time along with the daily habits, the results will<\/strong><\/em> come, and we will be happier along the way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to be present, focus on today not tomorrow, otherwise we miss out on the beauty of the present!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How true!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And along with that as we are focusing on the present, we want to have patience with ourselves, and give ourselves some love and grace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That sounds so much better, doesn\u2019t it?! Enjoying the process, giving ourselves patience, love and grace versus being impatient, rushing to the result and hating ourselves along the way or burning ourselves out! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can<\/strong><\/em> enjoy the process, enjoy the journey, and not beat ourselves up, while still accomplishing our goals, whatever our goals may be! <\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
