This Might Sting A Little
By: Yehuda Berg

"I try to go to the gym, but I don't. I try to look for a job, but I can't. I try to be more spiritual, but I just can't get started."
I think many of us can relate to the dilemma of lack of motivation.
Motivation is all about personal responsibility. At some level you are still waiting for someone to spoon feed you. Get over it and just start sharing, doing. Ask yourself if you want to be a victim for the rest of your life.
That's why some people need pain — it gives them REAL motivation not to go back.
Was I too tough with you? I hope so. The way of the Kabbalist is hard because the ego is hard.
Make your choice today. Wait for the pain to get you out of bed, or just jump up and say I AM DOING IT.
And as tonight is the eve of Rosh Hashanah, I can't think of any better day to kick yourself in the rear and wake up those sleepy parts of your life.
