How To Crush Lack Of Motivation by blazzydoc(m): 10:01am On May 04, 2019
How many times have you not achieved your goals and let yourself down due to your lack of motivation? When you’re not wallowing in sadness and self-pity, you are too busy procrastinating till you can’t anymore and before you know it, you are part of vicious cycle of anxiety and stress. Whether it’s losing weight or bringing your business to fruition – motivation is essential for growth and success in every sphere of our lives. That said, it is not easy staying motivated. In order to constantly stay motivated, you need to take ownership of your life and consciously make efforts in that direction. Well, it’s never too late to take matters in your hands and change the course of your life.

Here are 11 effective ways to crush your lack of motivation and always stay motivated:

1. Write Your Goals

The power of writing goals down has always been underestimated. Why write when you can remember, right? Wrong. Our thoughts are all over the place andFears
first step to achieve your goals is to organize your thoughts. So, write your goals down, however big or small they might be. Make them as specific as possible and assign deadlines to each of them. As you write them down and revisit them regularly, they get further drilled in your head, taking you closer to your goals. Doing this small exercise helps you to remain focused, motivated and lets you track your progress with ease. Start today – take to your laptop or a diary and get down to writing what you wish to achieve in life.

2. Don’t Dwell on the Past

A lot of times, our lack of motivation stems from the habit of dwelling on the past. This gives rise to fear and regrets, preventing us from making progress in the present day. Dwelling on the past is nothing but a waste of time. Understand that the past is long gone, and you cannot do anything to change that. What you can do is make your present day worthwhile. Instead of looking back and having regrets, learn from your mistakes, forgive yourself and move on. So, the next time you find your mind wandering off to the past, be determined to change the way you think and consciously concentrate on living in the present.

3. Beat Procrastination

Your lack of motivation and procrastination go hand in hand. Every time you procrastinate, your motivation levels take a greater hit. The only way to bring an end to this loop is to stop procrastinating. Next time you find yourself putting off something for ‘later’, stop and assess the reasons behind it. Get to the root of the cause and eliminate it in order to overcome this poor habit of procrastinating which is sabotaging your life and mental health. Take a look at this guide and learn how to beat procrastination:
When you finally overcome procrastination, you will realize the positive impact it has on your mood and motivation levels. https://josephifeanyiblog..com/2019/01/how-to-crush-lack-of-motivation.html
