So I was trying to post my devotionals every day on Facebook. It's not working out at all! I have posted three times. I don't really know how to fix this problem. But I'm going to have to come up with something. I feel like I always have something else that HAS to be done so I never have time to just sit down. This morning on KLove they were talking about how in order to get something accomplished, you have to find what motivates you. Money is always a good motivator, but that's not going to work. I don't need to get paid for something that I should do. The host was trying to loose wait and she found that money, competition, and helping others are what motivates her. She asked some of her friends to donate money for every pound she lost. She has about 200 people that agreed to go so. And she has lost 21 pounds and is going for 30 by the end of December. Every penny that she gets, is being donated to feed kids who are starving. I just think that is the best idea ever. She is working for something that she wants, something that she will not get any material award for, but a reward in knowing that she helped feed 600 kids. That means a dollar feeds a kid. That's one coke that you don't get this week or today. For me, I could care less about cokes since I don't drink them; but it would be no new shirt for the month.
So, I'm working on what I should do to motivate me. The simple fact that I was reaching out to other people on Facebook was enough motivation at first. It's not that that motivation is gone, but it doesn't have the same effect. In my mind, if I set my status to the current KLove song, or a bible verse, that it does the same thing. It may, but I truly I know that the postings about my devotional give much more thought and care.
