We don’t have to be a slave to our feelings, because feelings come, and they go. Feelings don’t stick around very long.
We can’t always rely on our feelings to motivate us. We know from our personal experiences; that, if we wait for a feeling to motivate us, we will be waiting for a very long time.
Feelings are a product of our thoughts, or our ideas we say to ourselves. So if we say, for instants, “Doing a certain task is difficult” then we may begin to start having a feeling of dread.
But if we replace the word ‘difficult’ to the word ‘challenging in the quote,’ then a feeling of dread may be replace to a feeling of excitement.
When we’re challenged to do something, then we become intrigued and stimulated by the idea of taking action, and that in and of itself can be motivating.
