If you learn how to do something new and you do it every day, what often happens? The short version is that you just get better at it. A longer version? You do the thing with enough skill to be competent, then further analyze your process and what you do and you can become faster, or you can increase the value of your work by adding new things of value to the process that go beyond what you've learned, or you can approach the thing differently from how you were originally taught. There are lots of things that happen when you repeatedly do something, but then, what happens if you stop doing some things after, say, a year? It tends to get fuzzy or things get forgotten if you don't do them much and you don't think about them.

What if you tend to approach every problem the same way and you are getting mixed results? What if you start to think about how that could affect your output and your input? Now, you are thinking about the way you think...bravo! Because of how varied situations can be, thinking about how you think can not only broaden your perspectives and train your brain to not only think in ways that can be hugely beneficial across a broader range of scenarios, but it is great at changing one's mindset to better adapt in work and life situations. What do you think about that, eh!? I find the topic fascinating, so listen to me ramble about it!

People often talk about ways we can stay motivated and people also discuss burnout, and it is great to discuss both of those things, and the different strategies people can use to stay motivated, but have you felt like some of the advice hasn't quite "clicked" with you? It is entirely possible that you are missing a key piece of the puzzle and it is throwing off your ability to maintain motivation for extended periods of time, and the key piece may help you find inspiration easier, as well as help you understand how and why you may experience burnout...that key piece is what I see as "capacity". Capacity, in a general sense, is how much we can endure, at minimum and at maximum, and it fluctuates a lot, but through understanding our own capacity to take on things, physically and mentally, we can fine-tune our performance to get the most out of our best days and our worst days. Listen to get an earful about capacity!

Happy New Year! Last year was a very trying time for many people, but also, there were people who undoubtedly had their best year ever. Whether people are dealing with things like the recession, difficulties with gaining employment, and a laundry list of other things, there are always people who found a great opportunity, reunited with lost friends, people who found love...so this episode discusses some of the contrast between the worst of times and the best of times, throughout the years in our lives.
