Are You Waiting For Something To Move You?

Are you waiting for something to move you...when you should be moving yourself?
I've been thinking a lot about that lately.
I've been waiting for motivation, purpose, and direction to find me.
But those things can't be found in stillness.
It can only be found in action after a decision has been made.
Notice I didn't say perfect action.
Just...action...
action toward the thing you've decided to move for.
When we rely on our feelings to motivate us into action, we find that we don't feel like doing it most of the time.
So, here are 3 things you can do to move yourself:
Take one imperfect step and don't criticize, analyze or overthink it. Celebrate the win. Congratulate yourself. Do it again tomorrow.
Sit in the action you're avoiding for 5 minutes. Don't want to write that email or work on that project? Set a timer for 5 minutes and work on it until the time is up. You may find yourself working overtime.
Stop re-playing a reel of worst-case scenarios. Your worry may be around not having enough confidence to handle the situation. The only way to have enough confidence is to go through the situation. There's no way around it. Confidence grows from experience.
