Read this if you feel like giving up…

Every day isn’t the same. On some days, we are cheerful and productive while on the others, we don’t want to come out of our bed. We plan and make our To-do list to get the most of the work done. However, when we fail to do so, we feel overwhelmed.

We indulge in negative self-talk which lowers our morale. This doesn’t happen with you only. It is the case with every one of us. That’s why I am using WE right from the beginning. If you feel like you are lonely, this WE symbolizes that we are all together in this :)

Although I can’t promise that you will never feel this way ever after reading this, I will try to cheer you up.

Whenever you feel exhausted, don’t force yourself to be happy. Let your emotions come out. Be the real you and it’s completely fine. You aren’t a stone that you will stay the same each day.

If you’ve read my previous story, you may know about my first client. I promised to her that I will post a Medium story daily (except on Sundays). But I failed to do so.

Why?

Because I am not energetic about anything these days. I haven’t accomplished anything in the last 4 days. Initially I was worried and felt more exhausted. Even today, I’m still in that state mentally. However, I am not pushing myself to be zealous.

You can see that you and I are in the same boat once again. To move ahead, both of us have to communicate as without it, we won’t be able to know who knows the right direction, right?

Firstly, let me try to connect with you. Thereafter, I am all ears.

I know that our destination is happiness. We want to be productive. We have pending works which are fighting to get on the first position of our list. Perhaps they don’t know we both have not made any list yet. They have no idea that even after having everything, we are feeling like we have lost them.

Whether they know all this or not, but for us, one thing should be clear.

You wanna know what that is?

Well, it is that these works are NOT our priority.

In a moment like this, WE are our priority.

Rather than looking for others to handle us, we should take our own responsibility. Only we can stay with ourselves every second. No one else can. Like me, not everyone can express what exactly we are feeling. This is because we don’t feel that people will understand us in such a phase.

With all this in head, it’s okay to be not okay.

DO NOT pressurize yourself to do anything. Just be you and do what you want to do.

Wanna paint? Get your colors and brushes.

Wanna watch a web series? Open your Netflix.

Wanna stay in bed? Take a nap.

Whatever you feel like doing, JUST GO FOR IT.

These things will actually help you a lot and you will feel better. Little activities will start setting up your mood to feel joyful. Eventually, these will motivate you to get back to your schedule.

After properly feeling better, you will come out of your bad vibes who made you negative about a lot of things.

You will see a change from :| to :) in yourself.

You are your person. Love yourself. Know that it is absolutely fine to feel like giving up and exhausted as long as you don’t take steps which make you give up on your goals. Know your worth. You are a precious part of this universe. These days don’t stay with us for our whole life. These actually give us time to take care of us (which we sometimes don’t do in normal days).

Make use of these days to pamper yourself and relax.

This is all from my side. Hope you don’t give up on yourself.

Now, I am ready to listen to you. After that, we will move forward to reach our destination and will complete our pending tasks :)

Thank you for reading.
