Mind & body are your tools - don't let them dictate you!
Mind can never be you or your soul ... Therefore DO NOT MIND! What are mind and body ? They are tools/mechanics. Recognize this simple truth. Otherwise you will be engulfed and entrapped in your body - mind whirlwind.
The mind and body try to make everything mechanical, taking away the thrill of enthusiasm.
The function of the mind and body is to make everything automatic so that particular activity can be carried out without much attention.... so that the available attention and concentration with a human being can be utilized for other things.
Why do we get bored with work, which used to be interesting when we started it. Why do we feel the mediation is not making you as ecstatic as before. Why things done repeatedly become boring? ......... Coz, minds job is to make your activities as automatic as possible to help you use your energy for something higher purpose than what you have already learnt to do.
Therefore doing things which are to be done repeatedly with honor and respect will save you from boredom and keeps your enthusiasm alive.
Respect and honor will vanish if you as a donor don't keep your enthusiasm of doing as though you are doing it for the fist time. By honoring and respecting others, you are honoring and respecting yourself.
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily."
Therefore, constantly be aware that your mind and body are your tools - gifts of god to you, use them to achieve whatever you wish to in life - lest they take control of you and you will be their victim!
