I’ve Lost My Mojo…

April 29th, 2008

…can you help me find it? I don’t know what has come over me the last few weeks, but I have been incredibly down. I have lost sight of my goals, in turn I have aimed for nothing. How depressing!!!

I feel like a failure, like a fake. I am failing at motherhood, being a wife, a business owner…everything! Isn’t it amazing how quickly these wreched thoughts enter the mind and begin to take over your life?

Here I am preaching motivation when yes I am all about going out and getting what it is you want, but on the inside I am broken. I am alone, scared and depressed. Yes I still have a closet full of demons that are working their way out.

So what has changed…I don’t know. Could it be the lack of respect I get at home from my husband. With the best of intentions his bad attitude could quite possibly be rubbing off on me. Or maybe it’s the house that seems to be falling down before me, literally this house is falling apart! Or maybe I am just plain crazy. Who knows!

Isn’t it nice to know that we are all human, we all get to feeling this way at times. It is what we choose to do about this feeling that truly makes or breaks us, right?

So do I wallow in self-pity, which will have absolutely no affect on what is happening in my life except of course make the situation worse, or do I learn from this experience and move on?

Hmmm…let me think. I am definitely going to dig my heels in and push on!

First, I am going to take today to re-evaluate my goals and then make a plan of action, one that is reachable might I add. Second, I am going to work my plan man!

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can…I know I can, I know I can, I know I can…I feel better already:~)

Just watch me!

Brandi

    We all lose our mojo at times, Brandi!

    Sometimes when those demons are coming back up again, it’s just before a breakthrough, so just keep on doing what you’re doing!

    You’re doing a great job and are on the right track.

    I’m very sorry I made you feel this way. It was not my intention to disrespect you. You’re right… My own “loss of Mojo” was definitely rubbing off on you. Although, it has been a while since you wrote this, I definitely feel awful that I even brought you to the point of venting your frustrations to the world. I really wish I had taken more interest in your work sooner. I may be an idiot, but for some reason, with being the amazing writer that you are, you’re writing seems to hit home with me a lot harder and clearer than your words. Maybe you’re a better writer than a speaker, or maybe I’m a better reader than a listener. Either way, I think it is healthy to say that both of us need some work with communicating our needs. No marriage is perfect, but I think if we both just put in a little extra effort, it can be pretty darn close. I love you. I look forward to working on this together with you in order to achieve an eternity of love and happiness.

    Love Always,
