Re: Topic Tuesday // Motivation // Tues 14 Aug, 7pm AEDT
I find it hard to not feel silly, for crying or overreacting and not doing what i want. I think for me the issue is I have a bath or do some things i want to but procrastinating on others. Reading, cooking, exercise.

@Lauz I’m not sure I have any rewards or anything to give myself when I’ve achieved something.

I can respect and understand that not everyone can do that and that's okay. But I'll be damned if I let perceptions of others put me off what I want to achieve

Fabulous @Zoe7 - isn't it funny how we can so quickly get swept up when achieving one thing, to go to thinking about all the other things still left to achieve and how that then makes us feel de-motivated once again. Taking that time to contemplate and give yourself some respect for the job you have done is a good way to maintain motivation. It's come up a fair bit tonight that this can be a hard thing to actually action - taking that pause after small achienvements, but it shows how worthwhile it can be, as you have shared

Allowing myself to have a break and a cup of tea. Buying myself a nice bottle of wine and watching a favourite dvd. Going for a walk or a run in the sun by the river... 🙂

I'm the same - no real rewards anymore as I don't enjoy much anymore

@BlueBay Maybe you need to think about some small rewards you can add to your coping box for when you do achieve those things - a chocolate or some bubble bath,,,
