Not 'I need', instead 'I want' or, How to get things done, changing your perspective

My last entry was a super long one and I'm still mulling over the ideas I expressed there. So, just a little entry today.

Following extensive reading from a variety of sources I've realised that the only way to 'make' myself do some things is to change my perception of whatever needs to be done.

I need to really want to do it.

Sometimes it's easy, I just focus on the consequences and I'll realise that really I do want to do whatever it is. But for more challenging things that I'm resistant to doing because I fear failing or because I fear succeeding, it's much more difficult.

I think I need to think of creative ways of doing this. I want to get more creative with ways of doing this because I love being creative, I love achieving things and I love solving my problems, so that's not an issue.

Hmm, interesting. *Goes off to think some more*

    Here is how I found "All Things Bright" is because my perception of what I need and what I want are the same thing but after reading this article it makes me want to change my perspective, but I dont know how to get things done it is because I do mull things over a lot and maybe I do procrastinate.
