1. Do you feel a lack of motivation/CEEBZ often? What can you attribute that to? (Can't be bothered = CBB = Ceebz.)
   Hmm, I think I'm doing ok. But sometimes, I lack motivation haha. As study and work and a bunch of other things build up over time, it can be overwhelming. At the end of the day, what I mistake as being 'lazy' is actually long overdue self-care.

Yea i think we are conditioned to label it as laziness when it isn't always that... sometimes your body lures you into resting for a reason! listen to your body!

I do!! Even when I have important things to do I always leave it til the last minute! I wish I knew what to attribute it to! That would solve so many of my problems!.

Aha, I do experience a lack of motivation from time to time. Sometimes it's just because what needs doing is boring and uninteresting. Sometimes I am just worn down/trying to do too much. Sometimes it's hard to see the point of doing what needs doing! But most of the time I manage to push myself along, with lapses here and there 🙂

I know the feeling of having no motivation to do what you need to do.

I agree with @NutellaBuster about how you feel a lack of motivation because it is so easy to do nothing.

And I also think lack of motivation stems from not knowing what your goals are and why you need to do something (which I realise is what @Cheeselover85 said).

Thanks for joining us @ryvb3! YAY FOR GOALS 

 

Goals are awesome to create (and to follow through!). Definitely agree that it's good to know what you're aiming for from the start

yea thats a good point ryvb3 - if you are doing something because its your absolute passion then motivation is easy. but if it's because you are fulfilling someone elses dreams (parents, for example) or just doing something becasue you think you "should" then its easy to not be motivated...

@chandelier @ryvb3  I totally agree too! When you're following a passion or your heart and the 'work' isn't even work because you're having fun. You wake up everyday motivated!

yea maybe cheeselover is right - sometimes is simply because what needs doing is boring and uninteresting! But other times... i think its more than that for me... But I always get stuff done in time, just always at the last minute in a big whirlwind... my family always call me the whirlwind

Hey @Cheeselover85! Welcome welcome 

 

The Whirlwind, love it!  Totally agree that what you're doing (interesting, super dull and boring) can play a part in whether we want to do it or not

@chandelier I know what you mean, at the end of the day we manage to get things done. But of course there's a much better way of doing it and plus it's risky!
