Some motivation please?

Playing a game of hide and seek with motivation and it seems to be great at this game because I can not seem to find it…

So we’ve come to that dreadful part of the year where months just seem to be dragging. Days feel like weeks and weeks feel like months and we just want to quit. There is no motivation to study and complete assignments (for those in school) or to go to work. Summer seriously can’t come fast enough…As the days go by, the motivation just goes by with it.

We’ve all had that moment where we just lacked motivation to get up in the mornings, get ready and get on with our lives. If I’m not mistaken, someone may even be lacking motivation at this very moment. Don’t worry though your’re not alone.

All of us have been through the ‘lack of motivation’ phase and we go through that phaseat least twice everyday. It’s perfectly normal. However, even though sometimes you may be lacking motivation do not stay in that phase. You may not feel motivated at a particular moment but continue doing what you’re doing and hopefully the motivation will come sooner than you think.

 

So what are we supposed to do? What’s the secret formula to finding motivation?

The truth is, there’s no secret formula. People may pretend to have answers but at the end of the day you are the only one who can truly pick yourself back up to feel motivated.

Remember your goal and strive to achieve that goal and every time you feel discouraged think back to that goal.

Remember how far you’ve come. You’ve come too far to turn back now so keep pushing.

Remember that your family and friends are rooting for you so try your best to make them proud.

Most importantly, remember that you’re doing this for you so you have to keep on going.

Finding motivation will not always be easy but remember that if you seek hard enough you’ll find it.

Stay motivated and hang in there!

This blog was created during my first term of Law School. This journey has truly been a roller coaster ride and I want you guys to come on this journey with me as I go through the ups and downs of surviving as a young adult and I hope you're inspired by some of the lessons I've learnt along the way.
