For me it helps to set goals and work to accomplish them. You try to learn something you've always been curious about or pick up a new hobby which requires some amount of work. For me I chose to compete in triathlons, which included learning how to swim which has always been daunting for me. I broke up my main goal of learning how to swim into pieces, then once I could swim I started setting additional goals. Each time I reach a goal, I feel that I've accomplished something. Having something positive to focus your energy on can not be overrated.
