Motivation and choice

I cannot imagine that this is peculiar to me alone.

7:30 a.m. Since I cannot work, perhaps it is time to listen. You gentlemen have something you’re trying to get into my head?

You are mourning – and encouraging – the idea of your creative time and energy being mostly gone. Use it or lose it.

Are you promising me a second wind?

Reminding you that your choice of reactions to every moment always remains. You have done a certain amount and can rest on that. Or you can complete what is not yet fully shaped. Or you can move on into new territory. Your choice – and that means whatever you want. There isn’t really a “should” attached to it, except in the sense that a different version of you will have a different attitude toward things, and so what do you want to be?

There is the ebbing of energy, though, which includes the ebbing of motivation.

And your second-tier reaction that is –?

Yes, I see the point.
