Abdu'l-Baha1

"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

Was there ever a time in your life when you didn’t want to do something, but motivated yourself to do it? What was the thing, and what did you do to motivate yourself?

Finding Motivation

Where do I find motivation? Sometimes it hits me in the face like a wet snowball. At other time, I have to shovel snow off the walk so that motivation can get up to the house and through the door. Right now the motivation I'm discovering concerns transcribing hard copies of poems into "Poem Experiments" , "Devotional Poetry" , "Memories of Snow" , and getting ready to move at the end of November or the beginning of December.


Looking for motivation
on a chilly autumn day,
I look up at the Mountain
to see is snow has come our way.

I dislike moving because it is disruptive. Most disruptions I don't mind. However, I dislike moving my residence; unfortunately, it's necessary. Therefore, I'm moving from the apartment I'm living in right now to one in the building to the east. Having to do something is good motivation! I will move without kicking and screaming and being dragged down the street. During all this I will recite one of two short prayers I've memorized.

"He who puts his trust in God, God will suffice him,
He who fears God, God will send him relief."
Baha'u'llah

Reciting the prayers helps me focus my mind and stop worrying about anything that I may think I've left behind or had to dispose of, which I didn't want to do. I seem to have to move my residence every few years. I think it's just God's way of letting me know that I need to let go. Moving helps me let go, especially once I convince myself it is necessary.

"Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants, and all abide by His bidding!"
The Báb
