I had a bout of this sensation the other day. I found a much better way to do something that’s important for my craft, but instead of getting excited, I got demotivated. Since, it’s “yet another thing to do”. My friend rightly noted this was some time for some mental hygiene, if an exciting opportunity just felt like a chore.
At the end of the day, we have to dispel any idea that we will be able to “do it all” or “do it perfectly”. I describe this as “the infinity of our universe”.
When I get demotivated as such, I just take a step back and say to myself “this universe has infinite potential, and it is equally valid to see it as opportunity as to see it as burden” and prune out the parts of my attitude where it is feeling as a burden.
