How to keep yourself motivated
With all the goals we want to accomplish, it requires an investment of our time in it EVERYDAY or almost everyday.
Do i do it everyday myself? No. Why? Because some days I procrastinate (It happens to everyone ;)) or it’s simply because that day was full of little « family things» to do already (groceries, homework and i work full-time!) and I decide to take a break from working on them. I try not to punish myself (it’ hard!) because I really need these days. They allow me to clear my mind and even come back with more ideas.
We certainly have a good amount of time everyday, but it’s not THAT much 😉 Our lives are very busy but we must take time to work on our projects as much as possible.
We can work our butt’s off to be more organized with our time. Because that’s really one of the only things that we can control. And we should not wait to be motivated to work on them. I’m naturally motivated by Life and by my goals 🙂 But i am definitely not always motivated. Most of the time, i just do it anyways! I said to myself that i will work on that for 15 minutes, and i end up doing a lot more.
Here are a few ideas that helps me daily on moving forward with my goals.
The goal is to write the habits you want to keep track on. You can keep this paper on your agenda, on your desk or even on your fridge: like that you don’t forget to check them when it’s done.
3. Do any type of exercise
4. Listen to podcast and/or read a motivational book
You don’t have to have a lot of time for that. 15 minutes is all it takes to get you pumped! Most of the time, i listen to some during my walks.
In this post, I list a few that I love to listen to.
5. Write your goals EVERYDAY.
If you haven’t do it yet: write down your goals. I personally use Rachel Hollis recommendation : to write everyday 5 things you are grateful for ( things/ thoughts that happened to you that day). And 10 dreams that you are going to accomplish. You write them like they are already done. You read it right! For example : You can read on my notebook: We bought a cottage, I am a published author, I saved 10 000$ 😉
I suggest you to buy a beautiful notebook for it. And EVERYDAY, you write on it. It doesn’t take much longer than 5 minutes. I love to do it just before I sleep. It makes me reflect on the good that happened to me that day, the little things that makes our days more beautiful. And then, I write my dreams.
I hope you find nice ideas that you want to make it a try! Or maybe you already use some of them. I would love to hear you thoughts on that 🙂
