keep going ??

Sometimes I feel genuinely happy and have the urge to become a better version of myself and it’s like a fire in my soul. I get filled with so much hope but it never lasts. Anyone have any advice on how to keep going and keep working on yourself without giving up or wanting to become depressed again?

Make a goal list it worked for me!

I like the comment about setting goals. I know for myself, though, that I need to do two things in that regard! First, I need to set smaller, attainable short-term goals and I can see progress as I move toward meeting them and second, I need to have accountability partners in my life who will keep me moving when I stall. I can have great intentions but let's face it...most of us derail at times. Having people around me who will tell me the truth in love and push me along is what works for me. Hope this helps!
