Do Something

When you cannot find the motivation to do anything, do something.

That is a paraphrase of a piece of advice I saw on a video about getting out of a rut and getting moving again. For the life of me, I cannot remember which video it was, only that it was on a channel provided by my Roku... which brings me to where I was at when I happened on that ray of sunshine.

I have been streaming and binge watching to ridiculous degrees lately and while some of this has been because of a dental infection, I am sorry to admit that it has mostly been a lack of motivation. I've been waiting for inspiration and apparently watching dozens upon dozens of old episodes of Cheers and Star Trek does not inspire me to do anything more than continue to watch even more TV and melt into my couch.

So: I'm doing something. I'm writing about this rut I've been in for the last few weeks and the despair I've been feeling about losing sight of what it is I have planned to do and exactly how I am going to do it. At this moment I am still at a loss.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step, right? Well, here I am admitting it. 

There. I did something. I might just go and do something else. But it won't involve my Roku.
