The first obstacle: time and energy

How to Maintain Enthusiasm


When you are running around trying to survive it is so hard to throw that plastic container in the recycling bin located in the next office. Or take the old takeout bread out of the paper bag and compost it instead of jetting the entire bag into the trash. My long toenails, grown wild with neglect scratched my 9 month old head, the scratch of an animal. How when I am in neglect can I resuscitate energy to contribute, do more than my part. I cannot. I trudge home, tired from sitting in a grey cubicle typing on a computer. I cannot muster energy for baby as she crawls into my lap. My poor husband has not had a decent hug in months. I am energy less. My mind recounts the bank account, money owed in debt, the worry of finance. This is why I trudge to work is it not?
