Journal "Psychology". Quickly light up and quickly lose interest

Quickly I light up and quickly I lose interest
I understood that a hot topic therefore we will understand.

We look for the reason and the decision:

1. Sharp start.

When to us some idea comes, we quickly light up. There is a lot of energy, but then it sharply disappears because the energy resource isn't infinite. All energy on the idea leaves in the very first days (weeks), and then all … emptiness. In this case it is worth trying to live with the desire, to accept it, to consider, and then to start implementation. Then energy will be distributed uniformly. You won't be able to transverse 10 km if on the first km you become Usain Bolt and accelerate as much as possible.

2. Erratic desires.

"Lifework" is very frequent, "dream hobbies" are the desires imposed from the outside, not your presents. At someone in social networks saw, advertizing, friends, society and so on. Therefore your resource isn't enough to finish. In this case it is worth separating the present from imposed from the outside. Then process will move absolutely differently.

3. Type of the personality.

There are people sprinters, there are marathoners. One are effective at a short distance, others – on long. One read several books at the same time, switching. Others take one, but in details finish. And so if you the sprinter, don't try to become the marathoner, it will end with sense of guilt and constant self-flagellation. Undertake short distances, even the big way can be divided into small stages.

4. Alarm.

Quite often we fill emptiness, grabbing everything if only not to feel internal alarm, to be dulled pain. But all this doesn't work, pain doesn't become more feeble, the alarm doesn't leave.

We catch, we throw, we catch, we throw. In that case stop, understand yourself, understand and accept the problem.

5. The purpose is far.

Let's say you wanted to register in dances. You already see yourself the ideal dancer, and in practice after two occupations nothing occurs. It strongly demotivates, energy, passion disappears, you give up dances. Yes, you shall see an ultimate goal, but it too far that to move you forward. It is better to set the object – to depart at least one subscription for a month. This victory over itself will motivate you.

So, what's your reason?
