Monkey Monday

Flickr blog talks about personal projects as a way of keeping going. They're talking about photo creativity, but given this is a blog, then let's stuff it into a metaphor shaped sock with motivation on the side.

I think I've having an extended Monkey Monday myself. Except it's been going on for weeks now.

No running. No practice. Missing classes of all types. Stress. Not much laughing.

I was intending to post this as a gee ain't that funny cheer up post but it's gone the other way. Hmm.

Thanks for the Jia You, anonymous from Taiwan.

I read an interesting second hand account of a sort-of motivational book today. It was especially written for miserable, depressed even, procrastinating buggers. The essence being "don't wait until you want to do something". Just start, the motivation may well follow the results.
