Is Your Tank on Empty or Full?

by joi on October 2, 2006

If you’re in the habit of using your head for anything other than a hat rack, you know what it feels like to hit the occasional brick wall. Thud or WHACK - the sound all depends upon how fast you’re going.

I WHACKed about a week ago. It seemed like everything I mentally touched fried a few precious brain cells.  And take it from me, I’m not confident enough in the number of these guys to risk loss. Empty Tank

Come to find out, apparently my think tank was just running low on motivational fuel.  I wasn’t even clever enough to seek out fuel on my own - I had to come across it by accident.  I was looking around at different blogs that used a particular blog theme.  It’s the same theme we use on a few of our entertainment blogs (Our Keira Knightley one, for example).  Anyhoo, I was looking at different techniques and navigational matters.  I landed on one by a lovely lady named Trish Jones.  Even though I was on a mission and was supposed to just be “Window shopping,” her smiling face made me want to read what she had to say.

Glad I did!

Her words were spirited and motivational, and the time that I spent with them brought me back from the whack.  The post that had the most impact on me was the one titled “The Key to Success is Knowing What You Want” - I would quote her last sentence in the post, the quote that I promptly wrote on an index card for future motivation, but I’d rather you go on over to her blog and read it for yourself.

While there, be sure to read more of her posts.  You’ll find yourself refueled, refreshed, and quite ready to go out and make a little magic.
