Motivation! (7)

1 Name: Shigatsu : 2018-04-16 09:45 ID:ufdErDSz [Del]

Sooo, this is about how to make myself do something?
A hobby of mine is folding origami. Specifically, cranes. I have 800 of them. But, my problem is I kinda just gave up on it (I wanted to reach 1000, as the person who does supposedly gets a wish) after the wish I wanted became impossible. Does anyone know how I could get motivated to keep folding them?

Listen to music while doing said origami, motivatonal music. Get pumped.

I had a friend that is really talented with origami and her work is pretty amazing. She also makes small models of origami figures too.

I don't know if my advise will do you any good, or if you will see this message for that matter, but I figured I'd go ahead and offer my input on the subject.
Music is indeed a good idea; if you listen to awesome music that gets you pumped and excited, and you feel like you can do anything, you'll want to do things! It's really amazing how music can affect the human brain. A personal favorite of mine that helps me in this area is "Unravel by TK from Ling Tosite Sigure" (the first intro in the Tokyo Ghoul anime.
Another option, (most don't like this one, but it helps just as much) is exercise! When you work out, whether it be with weights, doing some running, or simply doing a few push ups, your brain releases this chemical called "endorphins" which can actually have the effect of making people happier and more energetic/active, which, if you're feeling energetic, you'll want to use that energy some how... enter Origami.
I know this was long :P But I sincerely hope this helps you!
