I would finally take that German language course I have been postponing about 3 years. Ok, I am going to do that in December. Otherwise, funny thing, I cannot think of anything else. Does it mean my life dont need improving?


Nah, it only means You're pretty content with how far You've come!

i'm just waiting for the motivation to hit me.

I know the feeling, but its no use. Motivation comes to me when I get at least half of the job done already. Wonder why I never need motivation to get online


Instant gratification.

I find a book that was useful for me in terms of understanding motivation was "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield. It is a book written by a writer for writers but works across the board. It's sort of a cross between Sun-Tzu's "The Art of War" and Julie Cameron's "The Artist's Way" and the goal is to help the reader overcome Resistance. The further away the payoff, the great Resistance one will have to overcome. This book is one of those easy reads that you can pick up and put down and is very insightful in helping you identify where Resistance comes from and how to battle it.

So now back to writing this thesis that only pays off in Spring of 2006... damn you be Resistance!!

Somehow I always had the feeling that Resistance comes from me being lazy bitch and I usually fight it by telling myself: "Now get your big fat ass from those pistaccio nuts and surfing and start doing what must be done, PRONTO!"

Btw, good luck with your thesis

Well my next improvement goal is to take a massage course. That way I might feel more confident when I give Master a massage. As my grandfather always said 'If a job is worth doing, then it's worth doing well.'

I'm sure I won't lack for volunteers to practice on.
