If You're Unmotivated, Read This Blog
Who is your biggest enemy? Not anyone, but only yourself. Especially our own thoughts. When we grow up and start to stabilize in our careers, we get used to facing many external enemies. But, we still have our biggest enemy from within, namely ourselves.
The biggest enemy also keeps changing like the mind never stops. If we cannot control our thoughts, then our thoughts are actually very evil. Do you believe in that?
Unfortunately, we often feel unmotivated. The more comfortable we feel with ourselves, the more afraid we become to move. We are afraid to take new steps, and we feel like failures!
Well, let me take a sip of my hot coffee first. This is my cup of coffee before it gets dark. I decided to stop at my favorite cafe to work online.
The color of the cup is red, which ignites enthusiasm. But actually, I also often feel unmotivated. That's natural because we are only human. And, my job is to fight my enemy.
What do you do if you lack or are not motivated? Because I like watching and reading books, I usually choose sad genres.
I remembered a sad film that I watched last night. It really made me cry and also made me angry at the "enemy within me".
The film is entitled, "The Color Of Paradise". This film comes from Iran and was released in 1999. I don't even know why I watched this film. It started with a review that passed on my YouTube homepage which then made me interested in watching the film.
Well, long short story, I burst into tears when I saw that film. The main character, who is a blind boy, made me realize that I must continue to be grateful, and never stop being grateful for even a second.
The main character of the film is ignored by his widowed father. In fact, his father entrusted him to someone else because his father felt embarrassed and tired of having a blind child.
The main character has a high enthusiasm for life and cares about those around him, and is willing to learn new things even though he cannot see. This made me realize that I shouldn't have time to complain.
I brewed more coffee which was cold, but still delicious. I still remember the film I watched. A film with a simple story but somehow the acting of the main character, the little boy, makes me embarrassed if I feel unmotivated.
In this life, there are many things we can do. But damn, sometimes I just feel useless. Are you like that too?
Well, fighting against your own thoughts is the hardest. But to raise our motivation again, we just need to look at people who are weaker than us. Come on, we are too weak if we have to continue to be unmotivated in difficult situations.
If all the difficult obstacles even make us unmotivated, then what else can we do to become even better? Isn't the craziest encouragement to have difficulties in life and be considered useless by others?
Well, take a sip of your spirit drink, and when you're unmotivated, maybe you could read my blog. :) Or, you can just watch my new video on My YouTube channel about my Garden Tour!

I agree with you ma'am, looking at those people who have less makes you rethink that there's no reason to remain unmotivated where you are more blessed.
Keep blessing and feeling grateful for every single moment in your life :)
Yes ma'am.😊😊 It should be.😊
being unemployed with no source of income for a while made me demotivated a bit haha...but I want to continue what I am doing and hopefully succeed in it..
it's normal to lose motivation once in a while, but we should be mindful and think of a way to conquer challenges.
!LADY
I often deal with being kinda of demotivated because too tired ehehe but yeah life has its own struggles for every single person. So just have a fun a little
The mind is very powerful, and you have to train it to achieve positive things with it.
It is true that we are our worst enemy when we become negative and conspire with our mind against ourselves, the key is to stay positive.
There are movies that have an effect on us, and many times we realize that there are people in worse situations than ours.
I loved your post, it invites you to reflect. Thank you very much for that dear friend @anggreklestari
Indeed my friend, we have to train our minds :)
Hey, have a great day!
You're not only great in cooking but in taking care of plants as well. They're all growing well. Thank you for sharing your blog. I've learned that we have to look for another way to feel motivated.
Basically, I am writer, so I love to share my thought here :)
Thank you for enjoying my post
Very nice pictures and inspiring post. Thanks❤️🌹
Thank you :)
Thank you for the beautiful words to encourage souls who are unmotivated like I feel now.
Keep it up
Hey Anggrek!
![Coffee is my Saviour. I shall not want Coffee maketh in green pastures and plantations Coffee restoreth my soul Coffee leadeth me in the paths of green hilly pastures For Caffeeine name sake. Yea though the work is h.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cinnccf/23uFm2iFui37q5psTQyHYixLBmx2gLBx4owTjLmUU3EbLi6zFvGdjTDpw8j5Y6g4b8Uzc.jpg)
That movie sounds like a heavy plot, with a bright light.
Yes, we can be our own enemies, but once we realise that, it's up to us to dedicate time to training our minds to think differently. With practice, our minds can go into the default of positive thinking over the negative one.
A parody from a fictional book
yes, the important thing, is how to handle our minds :)
You are right my friend, we must be able to control our thoughts because they are within, if not they can ruin our life. The face of this coffee is looking fulfilling 😄😄😀. Everything you said here also refer to me.. but we must not give up and be strong. Thanks for sharing.
yes, never give up :)
Yeah you are correct
Inspiring post. I agree that to feel unmotivated is a powerful internal enemy.
To me the photography helps to counter this feeling. I search for beautiful or interesting images in order to capture them or I start working in some of the photos in my collection.
Thank you @nenio. Just do not be bored to read my blog ehehe
Semoga energi positif mu terus menular ke banyak orang ya mbak 😊
Terima kasih, senang bisa menulis hal-hal seperti ini, anggap saja untuk memotivasi diri saya sendiri ehee
Hey, @anggreklestari! What a thoughtful post. I read it even when I'm in good spirits actually, hehe. I totally agree; sometimes we can fall down the hole of discouragement and once there, it's difficult to get out without some help. It's great when we learn to become our own helping hand and it's even better when we can teach someone else to do it; perhaps they will help us out of the hole someday, one of those days when we forget we can actually manage. It happens.
Your garden is looking really good, by the way; it's an inspiration ✴️
Thank you so much for the tour!
Have a great day, gorgeous friend ☕❤️
Hello dear friend
so many things that bring us down every day, but with a wise mind, I am sure we will be great to through all of that challenge.
Have a great day
Hello friend, each of the words you share with us is very beautiful, where life is one and you have to enjoy it and at the same time continue, where we have all gone through those types of moments, where we have to seek help and continue. Beyond having a coffee or simply being able to visit those places, they help us to lift our spirits.
Hello my friend
I hope you have great time and thank you so much for reading my blog
Oh! I have already said that you have a very pleasant voice, watching videos and listening to you is so soothing and at the same time inspires you to work in the garden :-)
I don't have enough time for this at all, and sometimes
I don't even have the desire.
Glad if you enjoy the video also :)
Well, never be easy to be an adult but we have choice to getting better :)
You are very beautiful with the words.That’s inspiring 🌿
Thank you :)
Each challenge brings us new experiences to move forward without a doubt, OUR GREATEST LIMITATION IS OUR MIND, there is no challenge that comes our way, in which the supreme has not prepared us!!! I also love to reflect with coffee.... I already follow you on your You Tube channel here I leave mine hehehe... we are new at it .this is one of my new challenges jijiji.....💜

Oh, thank you, I will also check out your youtube page :)
Have a great day :)
Wonderful 😊
A beautiful post with a lot of reflection, it makes us think about all the instances we experience in demotivation and lack of meaning for existence.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us.☕
Good day.
Our self is our greatest enemy, and I can't agree more. I've been demotivated a lot of times, and although it's normal, I believe letting it rule my life would hinder us from doing amazing things.
yeah, we should be professional when we want to be success :)
I found this post when I really felt demotivated and like a failure....I started a challenge with great enthusiasm and in mid don't know why I stopped it...still struggling with myself , my thoughts....
But I'll give it one more chance 😄😄
No problem, it is never be easy to fight that feeling, just keep it up :)
Yuppp 🙏
Such an inspiring writing with a very bunch of nice thoughts. The world needs more of this.
Well done!
Thanks for the inspiring post and the movie recommendation. I just finished "Manchester by the sea" and I have mixed feelings after watching it. I think I should also include this movie in my movie list. Movies with this theme really open up my way of thinking as an adult.
This movie has slow plot but when you like family movie, I think this one will also great for you :)
Your reflection on the inner struggles we face is truly insightful. It's so true that our biggest enemy often resides within us, manifesting through our own doubts and fears. Watching "The Color of Paradise" seems to have been a deeply moving experience for you, serving as a powerful reminder of gratitude and perseverance. It's inspiring how the film's message helped you combat those feelings of unmotivation. Your suggestion to look at those who face greater challenges as a way to reignite our own motivation is a valuable perspective. I’ll definitely check out your blog and YouTube channel for more inspiration! 🍿🎬
Thank you for your time to stopping by
I hope you have lesson learned from this one :)
That's right, our brain is our own worst enemy!😓
In this sense, I have felt unmotivated many times, especially at this stage of my life, but it's something I constantly struggle with looking for ways to erase such negative thoughts. For example, drawing and painting helps me a lot, going for a walk or doing some exercise. The other thing that helps me fight those thoughts that make me feel like what I have is not enough, is to disconnect from social media like instagram.
I will look for the movie you are recommending, it looks interesting and I think it will make me cry! Hehe!
That's right, we should complain less and focus on what we do have and be thankful for how lucky we are, because there are people in worse conditions!
Thanks for sharing your reflections and I enjoyed watching your video harvesting onions and chilies, it's certainly a way to save some money!
Sorry for the testament! Hehe ☺️
We all struggle for own thoughts, but just try the best one for ourselves :)
Oh, thank you so much for enjoying my post also my video. I really appreciated :)
