And now to my thoughts, when i started here about a month and a half ago i was all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed with all of the content on GYE, and i actually (well not actually actually) felt my turbo kick in, and i felt super charged with all this info, and i had a few good weeks caring, listening, complimenting, feeling, giving, accepting, loving, and now it seems that that super charge has run dry, how do i hold on to that strong drive i had, that just seems to be dissipating rather rapidly?

I know i posted about my let down and in all probability it has to do with it, and thats what life is all about, but im still posting this, why you ask, beats me.

Life is construction zone, so you better get your hard hat on!!!

How do you hold on you ask. The answer is buckle up hold on tight to your hat because life sucks then you die. In all seriousness though batten down the hatches because life is like a wheel always turning. Now you're down then you'll be up, and the only thing you have is the effort you put in. So yeah you're drive is disappearing like smoke in the air but this where you learn what you are made of, have you learned enough to weather the storm or are you going to have a learning experience in the school of hard knocks. The choice is yours, however remember people are here to support you either way you choose.

What are you doing on a daily basis to impact your inner self and perspective? Are you watching the vayimaen videos on a daily basis? Reading from the battle of the generation or a similar book every day? Flight to freedom program? All of these are helpful to maintain slow steady growth. Go on the offensive to get energized and Don’t let the momentum fizzle out. (See chapter 26 in the battle of the generation)

The Battle of the Generation by Hillel S. has been a huge help for me. Message me to find out how you can receive a free copy.

some of the experiences I write about may make it easier to identify me. This is ok. I trust that if anyone discovers my identity they will keep it to themselves. If you do realize that you know me, I am completely comfortable and welcome you acknowledging me and my struggle in person.

My friend,

You've done amazing work in the past month and half. Excitement fizzles out and real life hits us like a ton of bricks, it can be very challenging and discouraging.

I second what Vehkam and HHM mentioned.

The Vayimaen videos do wonders for me. And so do friends, reach out to one of the legends here and they'll be happy to give you some of their time.

Call to kvetch. Call to vent. Call to cry. Call to laugh. No call to short - no call to long.

Hang tight,

You can win the fight, but I'll have to live with the loser.

Any excuse you use for yourself, you must be willing to use for your wife.

Not Always can I understand others, but I can always respect their wishes.

You're human, it's okay.

One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other.

Hello everyone, day 23, Hurray for me!!!!!
So it seems that B'H my turbo kicked in again, and i think its cuz i got back in touch with my self, and had some honest round table with my self (awkward, but dont worry i did it in private!), just being in tune with whats going on in side your brain can be very helpfull.
Another thing that i feel is a big one for me, is that i am to hard on my self, i actually had a discussion with my other half about this, and she is totally on target. Dont be mean to others and just as important, dont be mean to your self!! Pat your self on the back and think thoughts that make you feel good that you are you and you like you and you enjoy spending time with you!!!

YOU are awsome!!!
