Motivation where art thou

motivation doesn't just come up as if it was buried down someplace or beneath the dirt, when you have someone dealing with depression the best you can do for that individual is by showing up physically anytime they need help, not just giving advice now and then and expect them to be motivated or stimulated and if it's possible to go on a long walk with them, try and encourage them to do so.

To be sincere motivation doesn't just happen in a day, it's a progressive development that might seem inconceivable or impossible at some point. That's while progress is phase by phase, step by step, have you ever wondered why is not just a day that makes up a day but seconds make up minutes and minutes comprise hours and several hours bring about a day. same with the motivation you can't just get fully motivated in a day.

I once had a buddy who was depressed for several days when his wife betrayed him just a week before his wedding, despite all the introductions they had made. This hampered him, and simple morning rituals such as waking up early, washing, and brushing his teeth became difficult for him, and he was despondent for several days after the incident.

I couldn't just let him be alone and watch him squander his precious life because he was so close to me, so I had to be physically present for him because actions speak louder than words. So, mainly because of him I began going to the gym just for him to be motivated and with time I started noticing some changes and those changes didn't come overnight it was stage by stage.

There is this quote I previously came about and it chatters about life as being meaningless and there is no prize at the end of the adventure in life, though I almost fell for it when I started reading across the messages the author was passing through, I discovered that the writer was actually pessimistic after losing someone close to him and he then regarded life as being irrelevant without being with someone he loved.

Are you still on the lookout for motivation? let me try this and hope it works out, you can't just give up now, you've com a long way to get to where you are today, the path you've taken has been massively awesome, you've made some decisions that when you look back on, you're always proud of yourself, you remember the the little goal you achieved along the way, the numbers of people you have helped and nurtured. now think about everything, do you want it all to waste? That's something I'm sure you don't want. Now get up and become who you want to be because there is no stopping at this stage.

Just know that you're never alone, you're doing great, don't ever assume you're helpless. whatever the reason that caused your u depression don't overthink it but learn from it because better days are ahead.
