"Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark. In the hopeless swamps of the not quite, not yet, and the not at all, do not let the hero in your soul perish and leave only frustration for the life you deserved, but never have been able to reach. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours."
~Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Ah, i must say, i am a good one for getting caught in frustration and falling out of the wonderful habits of positive thinking, when i feel like it just isn't working. My efforts seem to accomplish little to nothing, over and over again. In some circle, these feeling are referred to as 'The Fuck Its', and I get them, in all of their inescapable glory.
I am the type of person who cannot afford to fall into the eternal abyss of these negative feelings. It is a slippery slope for me, and I've burned myself out with the trying, rebuilding, over and over again- what feels like to no avail.
When i get to feeling this way I have to remind myself that the only way out is up. I am unbroken. I may be tired, I may even be exhausted, but i am NOT broken. I have to reopen the channels to that part of me which remains unbroken, no matter what.
You have in you a part which is protected, a part that is safe and strong, a part that remains unbroken, no matter what
