How do I get from where I am to where I want to be?

Question

After stopping amphetamines for three days I find that eating and smoking cigarettes are the most productive parts of my day. Even on them I never really had what I wanted anyway, this is just a new low.

I want to wake up at 6:30 in the morning to work out. I want to get really into break-dancing just for the hell of it. I want to play at open mics and, most importantly, I want to make friends along the way. But this isn't about making friends, it's about doing what I can do on my own. Sad to think that writing this has been my greatest accomplishment today.

Answer 1

You'll do it..you have your dreams, and aspriations..you are going to make it, because you have goals...What I do, is when I really want to get motivated, is set a date, like the first of the month, and spend the rest of the time preparing, buying certain foods, etc..and then, make up my mind, that goal date is here, and go for it..you will be fine, you're just feelin a bit lazy thas all !

Answer 2

I assume where you want to be is to be peaceful and happy. In that case, where you want to be is here.... because peace and happiness are here already.... it just requires that you stop seeking it elsewhere, and look whenever you can at the certainty of your presence here.

Answer 3

There's a saying.."The road to hell is paved with 'good intentions'"...which of course means...IT TAKES MORE THAN GOOD INTENTIONS !! GET OUTA THAT BED !! DO THOSE EXERCISES !!! BREAK-DANCE YOUR HEART OUT !!! J U S T DO IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW !!!! (It's called "Self Control"...Be in charge of your body. MAKE it do what you WANT it to do !!)
