Sometimes when I’m down, feeling like I cannot get up I watch a good movie, listen to good music
suddenly everything becomes alright
When I need motivation, something to cheer me up, to lighten up my mood I watch a good movie, listen to good music
When I find myself in the middle of the crossroads, feeling confused, undecided I watch a good movie, listen to good music
When the worst catches up with me, when I feel overwhelmed
everything just feels too much to handle I watch a good movie, listen to good music
When I feel like the world is moving too fast
always one step ahead when I try to catch up with it I watch a good movie, listen to good music to slow it all down,
put my mind at ease
When I have reasons to celebrate, all the dots connects just fine I watch a good movie, listen to good music
Taking a walk sometimes get me into places that helps clears my mind
put the smile in my face Gives me clarity to certain aspects of life But a good movie followed by a good playlist
always find the way to smooth things up at any given moment
That’s my method, what I use as a way of encouraging myself when I need motivation, to take my mind off from everything. That’s what I do to pull myself up when I fail, when I’m disappointed, when I can’t find a different approach to a problematic situation. What’s yours, what do you do to get back on that horse when you fall, when life stands on the way of your happiness and everything else you want to achieve?
What do you do when your best isn’t good enough
when destruction follows you?
Life is the way it is, the way it has been, so unpredictable Sometimes you win, sometimes you battle Sometimes you laugh, sometimes you cry, confused perhaps Sometimes everything just falls into places
sometimes it slips right out of your fingers Just when you think you got it all covered, it just vanishes
Sometimes when you think you’ve lost it all
everything works out to your advantage It’s just the way it is, you might think moving slowly will help you get there on time, or moving too fast is the solution But you’ll be amazed to realize either one is wrong
You might fall more than you can get up, but you can’t say for sure that every lesson you’ve learned along the way is what makes life so unfair, or everything you witnessed prepared you enough for everything you might come across in the future.
Even if everything is working out for you just the way you wanted, you can’t go around saying that your methods are the best because every individual has their journey different to yours.
But when everything fails, fear struck, your knees can’t take you there, have something to get you back on track. Watch a movie, listen to motivational speakers, visit your favorite book collection, talk to friends, go to church, pray non stop. Whatever it is, if it helps you get back up, it’s very good, hold on to it, do it constantly
They say “when life gives you lemons, don’t sulk, collect them and make a lemon juice”. Trust me, it’s not always that easy. Sometimes it hits where it hurts the most or you just can’t get the recipe correct, you end up struggling to swallow your own juice.
But there’s got to be that one thing you can do to cheer you up, to encourage you to overlook the worst and all the failures, helps you put all the pieces where they belong. Be it a good movie, a well sought after music playlist to keep you motivated, taking a walk to places that inspires you, gives you more reasons to try again and again.
There’s got to be something. Find it, that one thing that gives you that push when you need it the most and hold on to it
“It’s all about one day at a time, one day at a time”
