Lack of Motivation

I am feeling incredibly unmotivated lately. Is unmotivated even a word? Well, whatever, it is now. I’m unmotivated in EVERY aspect of my life too. School, exercise, work, blogging, etc etc. See! I’m even unmotivated when it comes to listing what it is I’m unmotivated towards.

The point is I need to get back on track. This whole sitting in front of the tv snacking for hours on end must STOP.

What do you all do to get your butts in gear? OR if you want to be lazy like me go ahead and peruse this hipster puppy tumblr I stumbled upon this morning: http://hipsterpuppies.tumblr.com/. OR take this color career test: http://www.careerpath.com/career-tests/. Which just happens to be the second career test I’ve taken in the past two months that says I should be a secretary.

I would love to answer that but am currently in the same situation. What motivates me right now is the thought of moving to Portland next April. It helps me remember that this current shitty situation isn't forever.

I think I will be motivated when the sun comes out and I have to contemplate putting on a swimsuit. Until then, I eat m and ms.

Like Losing It, I'm in that exact spot right now, so as soon as you figure out how exactly I can get my ass off the couch and back in gear - my Christmas tree is still up, yep, it's that bad - I'd love to know.

Losing It - Ooooohhhhh, Moving to Portland? So exciting! We'll only be 4 hours away from each other! Portland rocks - you'll love it.

Notsojenny - I'm just going to continue taking as many as I can til I get the answer I want.

K. Line - Good point! Or Trophy Wife. Why can't I get that one?

Amindinmotown - I'll let you know what I find out. So far I've got nothin'...

Sometimes we just need to sit around on our butts snacking and watching TV. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

Hi Meg,
I was feeling the same way about work for the past year. What's helped me is blogging which is something new. I think doing something creative always helps me get off my butt and talking to someone whose opinion you trust and respect.
