ive got a real problem with motivation and i've recently been told that even with poor motivation and a bad attitude that a schedule, or a routine, can really help with that. it becomes a "time to do this" instead of "do i feel like doing this?"
but that's not what you're talking about, is it? but having a routine and doing the same thing day in day out doesnt excite me either. a desk job does not do it for me and i feel physical pain when i think about it. its one of the reasons i want to get into the film business. you end up doing the same job all the time, but its always changing. plus explosions, gunfire, and nude scenes... rawr!
but, sadly, in the end, life is a routine. there will always be things that you need to do in order to continue living the way you want. do you want a clean home? do you want a happy life partner? if you have kids, do you want them to be happy and healthy? and what about video games and sports? in the end you do the same things over and over again. its inescapable.
