Falling into a slump...finding a way out

It's easy, so easy. When life is beyond tough, whether you are in work or not; it can be tough to stay motivated on your goals. It's easy to fall into a slump.

A slump; a lethargy, an inability to see clearly to the horizon, all your focus on the near term.

It can get to all of us. Sometimes it's just for a few minutes or hours, sometimes it's for weeks or months and it can morph into a long term depression.

But often it can be as simple to change as having someone else provide an outside perspective on what is good in your life. You may think you know the good and bad things in your life but often as exterior view provides the perspective that we lack.

So if you find yourself to be in a slump, talk to a mentor or friend or counselor and see if a new perspective can shake you from the slump.
