What happens when you are tired of feeling tired??

What happens when you are tired of feeling tired???……Okay let me backtrack here a little bit. Today was (once again) one of those busy days where you have no idea if you are Arthur or Marthur, your mind has to be in a hundred places at once. I thought this will be a good topic for today’s blog, talking about how you have to be careful not to burn out and so on. Then I realised I have been singing this tune for way too long, yes it is busy and yes the demands of life can really take the motivation right out of you, but if I am constantly talking about how busy I am and have time for nothing…..that starts to define me that is who I become.

I was once told a very interesting Chinese proverb that I thought would be very fitting in this regard…A grandfather asks his grandson if two dogs are in a fight, one white and one black, which one will win the fight? The grandson answered and said that it would be impossible to determine the outcome of this fight before it has taken place, but the grandfather laughed and told his grandson that you can determine which one will win without them ever fighting. The grandson of course asked how this was possible and the grandfather answered…the one you feed is the one that will win.

So my 2 cents for the day is just that, stop feeding the stress. Don’t procrastinate, dominate, it is time we start feeding and nurturing the things in life we want to win.

So what happens when you are tired of feeling tired?? Well, you have two choices you can continue to feel tired or decide to do something about it.
