Slow Mornings

99% of the time I'm a morning person.

1% of the time, I am highly unmotivated.

When that happens, I:

⭐ Accept it and allow myself to feel those feelings.

⭐ Set a timer--that's when I will get going.

⭐ Envision exactly what my first steps will be when I get going (and maybe keep snoozing or get back in bed after trying and not feeling it or scroll socials).

When that timer goes off, I:

⭐ Turn on some pump-up, motivational music.

⭐ Start tackling those action steps I told myself I'd do when first getting going.

Most times, that's just momentum-building enough to get me going on with my day.

I'm not always ready to take on the day.

That is okay.

I'm human after all.

How do you motivate yourself when the weight of the day keeps you from getting going?
