Let's face the reality, motivating yourself to work is hard. Although some people look forward to their jobs, others find it difficult on some days.

If you are one of those who don't feel like it, here are a few reasons why you may feel like you don't want to work today:

Stress:

According to the statistics, 40% of workers find their work extremely stressful, and while moderate amounts of short- term stress can boost your energy levels, chronic stress can affect your physical and mental health.

You don't like what you do:

Getting out of bed for work can be tough if you don't like what you do. This might happen if you're not doing the job you desire, your ideal job hasn't lived up to your expectations, you're stuck in your role with little room for advancement, or you don't find purpose in your work.

Of course sometimes it's obvious why you don't feel motivated, sometimes you just don'wanna work but here are a few tips to get you into the zone:

• Take the day off if necessary

Take a mental health day to relax and recover if you're feeling mentally and emotionally exhausted. Take a sick day if you're feeling physically ill. While it is not a panacea, it has several advantages that will help you stay active.

• Break Down your Task and Start with the Easy One's
