The Fire Is Rising But I Must Pour My Heart Out First

Reclaiming The Fire

When I decided to come to Steemit in the very beginning I saw it as an opportunity to pour my heart out to the world in hopes to spark something in others. Fast forward many months and I entered into a resurgence. This resurgence was simply about me going all in on Steemit and making sure I was doing every single thing I could to motivate and encourage people even more. I can honestly say that I enjoy the work that I do in the community and the connections I've made with so many other people. The plan is to keep it that way.

The reason why I chose this title is because sometimes we can let our work become burdensome and forget the importance of what we are doing it for in the first place. For me waking up everyday to do the work I do now on within the community via Steemit and Dtube is a gift that I do not deserve. But I am here and words can't describe how thankful I am for it.

If you are reading this, you need to find that spark. You need to allow your passion for your work or your life engulf the environment you are in and also other people's lives. I strive to live this way myself but lately or at least a week I started noticing some signs that I did not like.

I started to work, work, work to the point I wasn't getting sleep, I was not eating much, and my mind started to get a little hazy from it all. This is not what I want for my life. Although I like working hard, I do not want to cross that thin line and enter into the realm of workaholics. Why not? Because I was there and my body collapsed afterwards sending me into the lowest place that I had ever been in my life.

Constantly I am thinking of ways to motivate and encourage yall. This is my life's work and I am committed to doing this. Not only that but it's a joy to do at the same time. I do not want my work to become a burden so I am looking for ways to become more efficient and make sure I am actually living life. The fire is rising again. I can feel it. But first comes much needed rest and recouping. I hope you take that fire that you have and unleash it. Let it permeate through your work and in your life. Shalom.  

Have you unleashed the fire?

Upvote and resteem done :)........ @humanearl

You’re so real bro. That’s what we love about you

I mentioned about striking a balance a few days ago on one of your post. It is quite important for us to developed the energy to do even more. I remember when I came on Steemit in January, I was working 20 hours a day on Steemit and Steem related issues.

wow..bro... your baby girl sure looks cute...lol...am thinking she loves talking.
then as regards work bro. i know you love your work but guess its consuming and draining..well i can relate because i was on my laptop for about 12 hours and still i felt like there was more work to do, i haven't been able to do much as regards my meditation, no time for my girlfriend, i feel consumed, working hard but still missing out on the necessary stuff.
so what i decided to do was to sort my day into hours. i had to schedule a particular time for my meditation, schedule about 3 hours in the evening for my reading. but still struggling to keep up with my girl.
guess you should just prioritize your activities, whats most important? what will make you fulfilled at the end of the day even if you did nothing else.
i treasure family.
and as regards the 5 hours editing, leverage is the key! dont do it alone. get a team. remember what happened to moses in the bible? he was working alone and he was getting eorn out. as a result, he couldnt even function effectively because of weariness. just get a team of people you can trust to give you better than what you want.
cheers bro!
these processes prepare us for a bigger responsibility.

Well I really believe it is possiblke to get to the point that we all want by only the flame that is hidden inside of us ,we just need that opening and that push to let us go forward ,which is the work you are doing and glad that I am also seeing that with you and getting a step forward everyday by the help of you !

Keep on going buddy !

still doing the best i can to put to lime light the passions that lie within me through the steemit platform, i have done or should i say given a little, but i know i can still do more. Thanks for having thought of igniting the spark @humanearl

@HumanEarl great video and you touch on what a lot of us go through. Sometimes you just need to take a step back and just breathe. Family always comes first for me. In the case of our show it's all good because my family works on the show with me and helps us bond and have a lot of fun. The minute this starts feeling like "WORK" we will probably stop. I already have a great career in RL. Just keep having fun that's what it is all about. Just have a good time and enjoy it. Your videos are awesome and have a powerful message so keep doing what your doing but remember enjoy it man. You have certainly earned it.

I haven't unleashed the fire yet. I am putting some major things in place and few week from now. I will show to the world my hidden talent.
To me, you are always been a motivation to the steemit community. You give more than your receive. Money cannot buy true encouragement and motivation but you gave us for free. Thanks for this.

The words of encouragement are swift and kind and the memories remain for a long time.
I came into steemit with one major thing in mind, and it is to enlighten the masses abiut the trends in medical world. I have had a lot of good mentors so far, and today luck shines on me again to meet you. Some with passion, zeal and commitment to work.
We all have giant in us, most people's giant are usually asleeep, to be awaken for one to reach his or her potential.
Happy to have followed you, i look forward to reading your subsequent articles.
