Tiredness
Is overcome by being active
June 29th 2011
Like everyone else, you complain of being tired, exhausted. And yet, do you really know what tiredness is? Tiredness is something that attaches itself to you like clingy people who will not leave you alone and are always demanding that you love them and be with them. That’s right; because you accept tiredness and pay attention to it you reinforce it, and it keeps coming back.
So, now, it is time to have a different attitude, and see what happens. During spring and summer, it is good for you to be present at the sunrise. Often you think, ‘My God, it’s so difficult to get out of bed so early; I’m so tired!’ Well, you will always be tired. But tell yourself, ‘It’s true; I don’t want to get up, but I want that to change. I’ll get up all the same.’ Then you get up, you rinse your face, you go out into the fresh air, and suddenly you feel your tiredness has disappeared. Contrary to what people imagine, to get rid of tiredness you should not remain inactive; you should move, do something. If you do not fight your tiredness, it will never leave you.
