I realised something recently. There are a number of people speaking and writing inspirational/motivational words and I think as much as I need to listen to it, I also need to stop listening. Here’s the thing about motivational talk. It is wonderful, inspiring and makes you believe you can be and do anything. I am always intrigued by people’s stories about overcoming obstacles overcome obstacles in order to achieve their personal best. This is inspiring because over the past couple of months, I have been seeking self-motivation. It’s enough wake up in the morning, be charged and ready to go. The problem comes when you are always “ready to go” but you never actually go. This is where I find the problem lies. We might be spending too much time being inspired instead of inspiring ourselves to go out there and do it!

It’s a new year and a lot…
