I have had the same list of to dos for at least a month. I get home from work and I don't want to do anything. Honestly, it doesn't even matter if I work, I never have the motivation. How do you guys motivate yourselves? I need tips/ideas
I had a revelation a few days ago because I struggle with the same issue: I need new things in life, if I keep the same to do list everyday there is no room for exciting new stuff that actually makes me happy… So now I try to do something I dread first for 5 minutes only (set a timer) and then continue with something I like. Sometimes I finish the task, sometimes not… there is always 5 minutes more tomorrow…
Sometimes it's easier to scratch the whole to do list and start over again. Chunk your tasks. When I realized my to do lists never changed I knew i needed a different set of tools. I really struggle with motivation/procrastination as well. Sending you love and solidarity
I tend to have to trick myself. This weekend I tricked myself into thinking some amorphous person was going to somehow see my house in the state it’s in. And managed to clean and hang a bunch of clothes and other laundry. Then I rewarded myself with a LEGO build. 😎
Maybe reduce the list, do only one task. Sometimes knowing what you have in your list can also be a lot overwhelming. Master one task daily then after few weeks add the next & keep going
