What honestly worked for me was following the 5 second rule.
It sounds dumb but works.
1.What honestly worked for me was following the 5 second rule.
Kleiton Silva
It sounds dumb but works.
Realize that motivation is trash and youll never feel motivated, except to do things that feel easy.
Look up Mel Robbins on YouTube.
She explains it perfectly.
2.Set a schedule for yourself.
Not one of those pussy ass pre written schedules, you write this one as you go.
Wake up, write down what time.
Keep looking at your old schedule and improve upon it.
3.First step, dont hate on yourself so much.
Youre never going to realize your potential and worth if you put yourself down.
Its ok to have bad days.
Its ok to feel like shit.
We all experience this and for the time and clime we live in, its fairly standard.
Try and do a little bit better every day.
The little things will snowball.
Do the tiniest thing possible that will make you feel even the tiniest sense of accomplishment.
If thats too much, maybe just make your bed and thats it.
Get those little wins, and use them as momentum to build up to bigger tasks/accomplishments.
Forget getting that new job/getting ripped/asking the gorgeous person out.
Start with making your bed.
Do you have cleaning to do?
Make a check list and check off then items as you do them.
Itll feel like youre getting more done.
6.I had to strop trying to tackle a huge TO DO list.
Big lists are overwhelming to some people.
No Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, etc.
Just get to those three tasks.
I find I just keep going when those three things are done.
They dont have to be monster tasks either.
8.Just look up tons of motivational memes on Instagram.
9.Wake up at the same time every single day.
Talk to a therapist or a doctor or someone.
You dont have to constantly feel like youre trying to get through life in second gear.
Youre not as lazy and useless as you think.
Reach out if you oughta vent to someone.
11.By getting over the mindset that you have to give everything 100% or not bother.
If you might only give 10% today its better than nothing.
Id rather go to the gym for 20 minutes than none because Im not up for an hour.
Id rather get at least the dishes done than nothing.
12.Break things into bite sized pieces.
Works for me when I feel like I cant do anything.
Start small, everyone can do 10 min!
14.Clean your room and maintain it as necessary.
15.Stop calling yourself names and putting yourself down first of all.
The more you call yourself a lazy piece of shit the more likely you will be one.
16.Erase all social media.
Once I turned 18, I got a summer job.
I was out of the house for 7 or 8 hours of the day.
I had friends or at least coworkers who pretended to like me, and that sometimes led to hangouts.
Even better, I applied to a second job and that has been amazing.
18.Lazy piece of shit in what context?
One victory at a time.
Anything that you enjoy, just get out into the world.
That mindset has gotten me out of some pretty dark places.
The more you get out, the higher chance of you meeting someone.
If youre an introvert, pick up hiking!
I didnt like how I looked.
I started to gain weight and my self confidence was nowhere to be found.
It cleared my mind and I was able to enjoy life one step at a time.
After a couple of months I was seeing changes in me both mental and physical.
It was really good for me!
Keep a good attitude as well!
Youll start noticing changes almost immediately!
I wish you the best of luck, keep pushing forward!
You got this!!
20.First of, cut yourself some slack.
Say that you spend a lot of time in front of your system, like me.
If the dishwasher needs emptying, empty it before going back to your system.
Next time you get up, you throw out the trash.
Healthy habits arent formed overnight.
21.Figure out what you want in life.
Dont focus on all the ways it’s possible for you to feel bad about yourself.
(Negative people around you will, but ignore them.)
Instead,focus on something positive you want to see happen, then orient your efforts around that.
For example, think about scrubbing the shower.
For example, ever spent 10 hours plugging away getting better at a video game?
It probably wasnt an entirely pleasant process.
Maybe you skipped a meal, your body or your eyes got tired, etc.
But that didnt stop you and you did all that because you wanted to beat that level or whatever.
Your work lined up with a goalyouset foryourself, so you had no problem doing that work.
22.Well, for one, dont think of yourself as being useless.
And start living not for yourself, but to benefit others.
And you will also grow along the way and become a valuable asset to others.
Take pride in learning, growing, and find an outlet to express and utilize what you have learned.
23.Think about why you dont do stuff.
You cant fix it if you dont acknowledge that its a problem.
Really have a go at assess why you dont do blank.
Problem: I dont brush my teeth in the morning when I dont have time.
So the fix is to give myself more time.
Solution: Go to bed an hour earlier and wake up an hour earlier.
Problem: I sleep the day away.
Solution: Think of any reason to get up early that is rewarding or I enjoy.
(There is a place in town that sells these sweet golashes?
Problem: I have a hard time getting up in the morning because sometimes I feel like life sucks.
Problem: I have a massive library of games and none of them seem like fun.
Solution: Pick a multiplayer game and spend time searching for and helping newbies.
Problem: Im unhappy.
Solution: make a run at make other people happy.
If your job makes you miserable and it isnt wholly on you then fuck em.
24.Stand up, right now.
Look down at your hands.
Listen to your breath.
Feel your heart pumping within you.
Throughout all those long eons, those tiny mindless cells became fish and reptiles and then mammals.
They cooperated, competed, killed, lived.
You are the last link in a chain forged across billions of years.
You inherit a crown passed through untold generations of winners.
You are a miracle.
Look at how far we have all come.
Look at the people around you, all asleep to the greatness within them.
Close your hand, open it.
You have so many choices.
you could do so much.
Your time is drawing to an end.
Who will tell your story?
What will they say?
you’re able to pass the torch.
you might stand in glory.
I know you could.
Because every atom within you has been present for countless victories.
You wear a shape sculpted through countless trials.
Your thoughts echo down the hallways of a mind designed to master the problems of this world.
You are the end of a billion journeys.
You are the summit of a mount older than the stones.
You are the victory.
You are the reason.
You are, and you shall be.
Go forward, to shape the wonders and tales of the world that will follow you.
Add a brick to the monument of civilization.
Honor the web of life that has made you.
Bring life and love into a world that has offered the same to you.
Your time is here.
Your victory comes soon.
Anything worth doing is worth doing badly.
(I bet it sounds like your mother) Let go of your perfectionism.
Put your dirty clothes in a hamper!
Go to the gym and walk on the treadmill for five minutes!
Open a word document and write one run-on sentence of that novel youve been meaning to write for years!
Inertia effects motivation the same way it does objects once you are up and moving it will be easier.
Let yourself feel good for accomplishing what you could.
Bit by bit, you will see progress.
26.Depends on what is causing you to be a lazy useless piece of shit.
In this case therapy is the best fix, and medication ia useful tool.
Sometimes that happens because your anxiety pushes you towards avoidance through paralyzation and you dont even realize.
In that case, therapy and medication.
Maybe you just were never taught how to be proactive and you require to modify your personality.
Or maybe you are self-sabotaging due to a system of dysfunctional beliefs.
Maybe youre not lazy, but actually tired.
Or maybe you really mentally tired and really do need the rest.
Step one would be fidning out why you are a lazy, useless piece of shit.
27.Practice being productive every single day.
Recognize that motivation is fleeting, but discipline persists.
28.Things seem overwhelming if youve let them build up and avoided them for a while.
Responsibilities like chores and a job are bills you eventually have pay to yourself in the form of labor.
You cant fix it all in one day, it takes time.
I was where you were for a long, long time.
Feeling like I was worthless, lazy, etc.
Take it a step at a time.
30.Positive reinforcement my dude.
Take pride and feel good about the good choices you make.
Dont criticize or condemn the bad decisions.
Bad decisions help you learn and make better decisions in the future!
