There's a force that follows the work we do and the effort we make towards changing our habits. This force comes after we have made an effort at something or a task and takes over the work for a while. But unless we continue at what we're doing, the force slows down and finally stops. It's like starting up a new business. At first, we exert so much energy into getting it up and running. But at a point, if we make no move, it starts to slow down it's pace of growth. However, if we keep making efforts, it goes on thriving and these efforts we make soon becomes a routine for us. Building a routine is necessary if we are to achieve any goal in life.

We all have different ways we go about making ourselves feel better when we are feeling downcast. Most of the time, we resort to our friends. As for me, the techniques I have depended on include; -          -  Reading chats from people. -           - Reading books. -           - Listening to music -           - Doing more work, just something to get my attention out of it -           - And for sure, I’ve also depended on people to lift me up and out of that mood so you’re not alone on this journey. Anyway, all this methods are great ways of coming off a downcast spirit but they are also all external support and form just a part of the self-validation equation. On the other hand, we also need to get internal support by allowing yourself be your support system. I was able to come up with some things I could do to help myself in those mom...
