Thursday, Motivation?

     Finding motivation everyday to continue this journey of becoming debt free is a struggle.  I am tired and I often feel like all I do is work and pay bills and I never get anywhere.  I know we have made great strides forward, but I can't help getting a little worn down and blue with the amount of time it is taking.

     The one thing I have figured out over the years is that if I cut myself back to nothing, I start to explode and re enter the debt cycle.  Which is why  Hub's and I travel some, and treat ourselves a little.

Things I am finally noticing in this struggle.

•   Becoming debt free becomes easier when you can see that you have everything you need and then some. 
•   It becomes easier when you count your blessings and realize what you really have. 
•   It also becomes easier when you focus on experiences rather than things. 
•   It becomes easier when you focus on others and not yourself.

     Right now I think I am just overtired, between mom and mom and mom and the shop I am a little overwhelmed.  Everyday I set goals for myself to accomplish a certain amount of work.  Those goals are usually met and when they aren't the excuse is .......  I over estimated my ability.  Okay so I think I am superhuman and I am not.  I don't even have a cape to wear.  Can someone make me a cape?  If I had a cape I think is would make all the difference.

    Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
