So, is THAT why you adopted the new cat? You need someone to go in a stomp on those corporate field mice?
You know, it's all about how you look at things. You can look at the drudgery of your job or you can look at the fun challenges you have faced and will continue to face. Motivation is a choice. Yes, it can come from outside but, you have to be receptive to it for you to recognize it.
How much energy do you waste thinking about how you need inspiration and motivation rather that utilizing the inspiration and motivation already presented to you?
