how do you get motivated??

that is a great thing to do and i am glad it works for you :) i do prey to god many times a day but sometimes i feel i only rely on him when i am in trouble or exhausted when i really need to praise him more than i do....thanx for the advice may b i will try to do that a little more and c how i feel through out the day :)

thank you that is very sweet of u :) yes god can do many things that we can not do and there is many things i couldnt do without him :)

I really hope it works for you. I will be thanking him that it will work for you. I find if I only go to God when I am exhausted or troubled. I am always to tired to. Moring works best for me, before my feet touch the floor I begin to just thank him for things. Its forming the habit time, of going to him in our time of joy and or pain. God can do things we cannot due.

i use to be really good about my hearing my alarm clock until just recently. i guess i have been so drained there are some mornings i do not even hear the alarm clock go off when it is time for my husband to get up for work (which isnt always good since he doesnt always actually get up). i guess everyone needs time to relax and slow time down. just wish we could ALL find that time :) *sorry in about 2 months late haha it took me this long to see that you responded lol not sure how i missed it but i did lol

it is very hard for me to find ways to enjoy life because i am always so busy lol i feel like i do the same thing every day haha. but i do love going camping and fishing with my family on weekends when we can find the time and it is not raining or to cold (since this years weather has been so crazzy). i also LOVE spending time with my kids and i have tried to do a lot more with them because they may be starting at school this upcoming year. i have never read a self-motivatedbook that i know of but i do love to read a lot :)

I think you should try to take a break occasionally this will help. Well try to enjoy every second of life like there is no tomorrow and today is the best day you have. Never worry about the future and try to live at present.

that is some great advice thank you i wish i could take a break but it seems like the days i choose to take a break i end up having a slammed pack day full of things to do. my husband is so great because he tries to give me just a little peace at home. sometimes when he knows i am just so stressed out and it would be better that i get atleast 5 min or quiet time hell take the girls outside or shut my door in the room and tell me to stay and relax for a few then come out to join them. it is nice even tho unless they are outside the kids still come in but it is cute haha. that is a problem i have. i seem to try and rush thro life and i stress over things so much that i forget about the best things in life. i am ALWAYS worrying about the future and woundering what might happen if we do or dont do something. may be it is time i start worrying about each day as it comes to me. may be then i can learn to enjoy the small things in life. sometimes i think i forgot how to do that.....

thank you for that. that is all ne 1 can really do is to take it step by step and day by day. :) yes it will get done sooner or later i just hate to leave it to my husband who works all day. also we live in housing which has inspections and if its not doen we could lose our place to stay. sometimes it just becomes to much...
