WHAT HAPPENED TO THE INITIAL VIBE??

You know that vibe you feel
When you make a new year resolution,you applaud yourself on how successful you will be, you have time for everything and keep to it.
Your first semester in school, you read like there is no tomorrow, your social life goes down the drain,you never miss a class.
First few months of marriage, you make the dishes special, you apologise even when you are not wrong, you are so concerned about your partners happiness.
First month as an employee, you come to work earlier than expected, you wear a bright smile, always ready to help.
First week on steemit, you write brilliant articles, you make research and connect with anyone available, you ask questions on how to succeed.
First month in a relationship, you call every hour, text every minute, hang out every week,open up to eachother.
Working on a new project....
So many others
What happens to that strong vibe?
Why does our zeal decrease?
Why do we loose interest?
Why do we do less?
Wanna know???
* Read on!!!*
WHY WE LOOSE THE INITIAL VIBE
There are different reasons people loose their vibe,I will state a few.
Having worked hard without a good result
There are times we put so much effort in a work but get little or no result,things do not go as planned and continuous work seems like pouring water on the stone . This can be very discouraging if it goes on for a while, a zealous person will definitely loose that strong initial vibe if there is no result.
Poor maintenance
Without maintenance we can hardly keep anything for long, it's just like the joy of having a new bag or belonging in childhood, we always want something new but aren't good at keeping them new,our focus drift way easily and whatever is at the other side of the table seems juicier than what we have at hand.
Misguidance
This could be as a result of bad influence or lack of encouragement from friends, peers and the society.
Pressure
There are times we are over burdened by the demands of others and we tend to be there for them and forget about ourselves, putting others before us.
HOW TO REGAIN THE INITIAL VIBE
Whatever is your reason for loosing your initial vibe,know that what matters most is to rekindle it and it's an achievable task.
Here are some practical things you can do
- Take an alone time, ensure that you are in a comfortable environment, flash back to those moments you had a strong vibe,find out the reasons you felt excited, write them down and meditate on it.
- Surround yourself with people that have the same zeal, via social medias or physical means.
- Think positive and believe in yourself.
- Set out a plan and goals to be achieved on a weekly basis.
- Seek inspiration People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing - that’s why we recommend it daily.
Zig Ziglar
- Focus on the result and reward to be achieved.
- Talk about it. Talking about something increases your vibe and interest and gives you a challenge not to go back on your words.
# POEM ON THE SUBJECT
I had a dream
lot of them in a bucket list
The vibe made me feel butterfly
There is no going back
The clock ticked
I was lost
A dessert of hopelessness
No hope of being found
It became a daily life
Maybe I belong here
Sun rose
leaving behind the flashes of my first vibe
I rose
I worked
*I succeeded
We all can
Thanks for reading

Its as if you're relating to me...🙈 thanks for this motivational post.
My pleasure dear
Sometimes we lose that first vibe just because of a few failures, a few hitches we are discouraged, we fail to look inward and find the push, the drive to even help us improve our vibe
That's true
It amazing how u put all dis together. Problems and challenges will come is how we handle them that makes us. Nice one jeanie.
Thanks for reading and your contribution
U are most welcome
when we have lost the vibes, our lives become routine and we become robotic in our actions. That is when life becomes so dull ,so boring , so dreary . We need to revive our first love for the things we do to always be on top of things and to really enjoy life to the fullest.
You said it all
I think I'm gonna have to practice what you said.
Lemme know how it plays out
i have a problem with pressure, i cannot under pressure and i get frustrated easily
You need to ease yourself
Stop taking life too serious
Know that you did your best and feel good with yourself
Take time to relax your mind
Thank You
This is nice. The reason why passion dies is because purpose is not continuous.
Exactly
