I spend too much time clicking around. You do too. I’m not a junkie for the funny videos or the crazy ones or the fail videos…I’m looking for inspiration. In the form of a video, a song, an article, a tweet. I’ll take it anyway I can get it.
But I’ve realized that finding an inspiring video only makes me hungry for more inspiration.
I just want more of that phycological and emotional pop.
So the end result is the same as being a junkie for any other type of material. If you love funny videos, you find one and then you want more so you click on the next one. It’s hilarious so you keep clicking and clicking. Till when? Till they’re not funny anymore. And then you walk away feeling a little let down. Definitely not as elated as the beginning of your journey.
It’s the same thing with inspiration. Instead of putting inspiration into action, I put inspiration into finding inspiration, and I’m always let down when that happens.
When I was a kid I was inspired by the Mighty Ducks movie. I would watch it and immediately go to the pond out back and put on my ice skates and try to improve my 8yr old hockey skills.
I want to do that more. Not the hockey part. The DOING part.
