A person's state and energy are much like a battery. When fully charged, I feel like I have unlimited potential and am motivated to try a lot of things; When the battery is low, there will be little interest in the world around you, as one netizen described: "For a period of time, I will inexplicably feel that I have no energy, and I can't lift my energy to do things." ”
In fact, many things in life will steal your "electricity".
01 I've been dragging my feet and not doing anything
There are always things we always want to do, but we keep putting off because they are not urgent. For example, I want to enroll in a class to learn dance, I want to finish reading 20 books, I want to start a fitness plan for X days, etc. These things, you drag on and don't do, and they don't seem to consume your energy. In fact, the anxiety, insecurity, and self-doubt caused by procrastination can further reduce your sense of fulfillment. The more unfinished you have, the less motivation you'll have to start trying something new.
02 Pursue all-round perfection, there is no distinction between primary and secondary
When a person pursues perfection in any aspect, his mental strength is bound to be overdrawn, and lack of mental energy will lead to unsustainable actions. For example, some people either don't clean the house, or they want to get rid of every grain of dust when they do, and this polarized way of acting can seriously disrupt the continuity of a person's actions. Human time and energy are limited, and completion is more important than perfection. How to reasonably allocate one's energy between the main line and side quests is a test of one's wisdom and accumulation of experience.
03 Dense and meaningless socializing
In ineffective socializing, you don't feel a real sense of happiness and fulfillment, and you even have the urge to run away from time to time. And those acquaintances and mutual calls that you make in a hurry often only bring you the illusion of "having a lot of friends".
Essentially, if you don't work hard enough to excel yourself, your connections are worthless and won't get you to the next level. Compared with mixing in all kinds of superficial social and fast-food socializing, it is more useful to improve one's own strength in a down-to-earth and serious manner.
04 Staying up late to sleep and swiping mobile phones are addictive
Whether a person eats and sleeps well every day and takes care of his body will directly affect the efficiency and ability to act.
On the other hand, because of low self-efficacy, we can only get a little sense of control from swiping our phones and staying up late, and get a period of time that seems to have something to do, but the addiction to swiping our phones and compulsive staying up late will further deprive us of the vitality of action, resulting in a sense of emptiness when we put down our phones.
05 Constant self-doubt and self-denial
People who are accustomed to self-doubt often have a lot of "inner drama". When encountering failure, on the one hand, they especially like to immerse themselves in negative emotions and atmosphere; On the other hand, this memory of failure is often invoked, reinforced, and proven to be self-defeating.
Many times, it's not that you're really incapacitated, or that the challenges you're facing are too difficult, it's that you're detached from reality and self-deprecating, depleting your energy and motivation, so that you don't have the extra energy to really overcome difficulties and achieve self-transcendence.
