How to Un-Stick Your Motivation 02/08/2012
You might find that some work weeks are super-productive. You accomplish everything you had in front of you and feel good about your work. Great job! However, other weeks you can feel completely unmotivated. Perhaps you have a lot of stress in your personal life, or just can't shake that tired feeling when you wake up in the morning. Maybe you slept poorly. Whatever the reason, feeling the slump at work is tough. Here are five ways you can get back into the swing of things in your work life (with ideas from some of our Facebook fans at the MeganWrites Media Facebook page)! A few Facebook fans recommended taking a break and doing something else. Melinda, for example, suggests doing something boring like house chores. But what if you work in an office away from home? Rather than doing chores at home, answer some emails, check your voicemail messages, or do something mundane rather than the project you're dreading. Allison takes advantage of the break through taking her mind off of work with gaming! Quick games are a great way to get motivated again! However, don't game too long - those tasks won't complete themselves! Kimberly finds taking a walk is helpful for motivation! Plus, it's exercise, so it's good for you! Facebook fan Rachel shared a link to the video below from the Go Go's song, Vacation. Music is a great way to elevate your mood and can help with motivation as well. Use websites like Pandora or Spotify to find music that puts you in the right mind to work. What tips would you offer to someone struggling with motivation at work?
