When the motivator needs motivation.

Imagine being a motivational speaker, and you're battling with depression.

The meaning of the title is more like saying; when the mentor needs mentorship, when the doctor needs medicine, when the coach needs some coaching, or when a lawyer needs a lawyer.

Sounds absurdly funny right?

Yeah, I thought so too.

A quick Recap.

I've kinda been on and off, and then totally zoomed off this platform, it's been this way for weeks.

I'll say: I'll draft and publish it today.

Then I'll say: oh no, I'll do so tomorrow.

And when the morrow comes, I'll say: I'm tired, it's just reading 5 days off, how about making it a week?

And then when a week comes, I'll say: Well, it won't be bad if I just sell off my account.

To cut this short, I've been a little and then greatly unsettled.

Something happened yesterday; which inspired me to write today.

A summary of what happened.

@Kacy01 messaged me on Whatsapp; asking me why I haven't been active on this platform, I told him the reason, and I'm not going to mince words about this, I'm saying this plainly and sincerely. I told him I wasn't active on this platform because @TheRandomRewarder stopped visiting me.

I'm a user who is used to tipping people's articles whenever I read them, I remember when this all started:

Whenever I didn't have enough to upvote people from my read .cash wallet, I'd go as far as transferring BCH from my wallet to my read. cash wallet, just so I'd have enough to upvote comments and articles.

Recently, when I found it difficult..., not having enough to upvote people's articles or upvote their comments on my article, worst was not having enough to renew my sponsorship. I withdrew from read. cash. It might be hard to believe, but it's the sincere truth.

Back to the summary:

After reading my response, he told me this:

I'm buttressing on the first sentence: "no be una dey encourage us to keep going?"

It hit deep and pierced directly into my skull. That sentence made me reminisce on the good old days; when Ellawrites never missed out in publishing for a day, I remember then; when read. cash was almost everything to me, days when missing a day on read. cash was like forcing poison down my throat and asking me to smile.

Truth be told, Kacy's words, are one of the reasons why I'm drafting and would be publishing this article today.

When the motivator needs motivation:

That I mostly write motivational articles or poems, doesn't necessarily mean that I am perfect and fine. Most of my write-ups are written from my depressive state.

There was a time I wrote a poem on "Unheard voice." I wrote it through tears, I felt bad at that moment.

I was beyond the word: "Shocked" when it was reposted by some friends of mine.

Rise.

There was another day, I felt somewhat down, and boom, I started scribbling and ended up writing a poem on "Rise"

I wrote it to reassure myself and others, who might be in that moment of trial and self-doubt; that if they don't give up, they'll one day make it to the top.

There's a reason why I plainly stated that; I write mainly from my experience.

Truth be told, I don't know how to make research, that's probably why I haven't gotten any content writing Jobs yet, lol. πŸ˜‚

What am I saying in essence:

Sometimes, a doctor might also fall sick. Sometimes, a mentor might need some mentors.

Sometimes, even a marriage counselor, might need a counselor to counsel his/her marriage.

That someone solved your problem, doesn't mean the person has solved his/her own.

Thanks, Kay, for your short and precise words of encouragement.

Thanks to all my lovely subscribers, sponsors, readers, commentators, tippers and those who thumbs up.

Till we meet again in my next article and yours.

Thanks for reading.

I so relate to this one, I use to give advice and someone's motivator, but just like what you said, I'm not always okay, and I'm battling with my own problems right now. So we are blessed that we have our friends to remind us and motivate us to be more productive and do our best again. Let's pray that better days are coming, especially on this platform. Keep writing, and keep the faith, my dear.

Even therapists sometimes need therapy. No one is perfect and no one has got everything figured out. It's good to have friends who look out for you and encourages you along the path of growth.

Wait, did it just happened? Wow! You don't know how happy I am seeing you write again..but hope it continues?

For the rusty, just remove your mind for now, don't expect visitation like you're expecting a miracle to avoid demotivation. Keep writing and if possible tag him often (this Pattern works for me now). It'll come around. Welcome backπŸ–οΈ

Awwwwwn πŸ₯Ί Lhes dear, I think so too, it might probably have something to do with the current BCH price, that might be the reason why he doesn't visit the way he used to.
