Who are you really?

It may be that from time to time you get stuck and aren't taking the actions you need to take to create the life of your dreams. It's hard to work toward long term goals because our brains are programmed to seek rewards instantly. So, from time to time we will probably need to take some kind of action to remind ourselves of why we're doing all this.

Maybe it would help to take another day off. On this day, dress differently than you usually do, eat something that appeals to you that you've never tried before, speak to strangers that look interesting, take a different route, take a different approach to a task, or try anything else that's different than you usually do.

This is another way to practice noticing who you really are and what you really enjoy, and by discovering yourself, you motivate yourself to take the sometimes difficult, sometimes boring actions that are necessary to reach the life of your dreams.
