Lost & Found
I seem to have misplaced my motivation. I have a list of eleventy thousand things I should get done, but can’t quite seem to make the step from list-making to task-accomplishment.
Add to that the fact that I also can’t be bothered to eat right or exercise (grocery shopping is one of those things on the list), and I’m really just turning into a fully-fledged mess (though at least I’m still showering).
I don’t feel overwhelmed as I typically do when I’m in this place - I’m not that far behind yet - just incredibly lazy.
What’s your favourite strategy for getting your mojo back? How do you get to the point of making the leap back into a productive routine?

i do as little as possible until i get so sick of doing nothing and everything else piling up i turn into a tazmanaian devil of feverish activity and get everything done in two days.
but i don’t recommend that.

I dunno, my motivational mojo has been taking a vacation in Beruba for awhile. I just wish my anxiety had gone someplace warm as well.

I promise myself something if I get my stupid chores done. Like sushi.

Mmmmm, sushi. Maybe I could do gillian’s chores instead of mine.

I do the same thing as Heather, but instead, the whole time I’m doing nothing, I think about how good I feel after it’s all done, and finally I get sick of the same sentence over and over in my head, and just get up and DO IT.
