Hi my love, it is my first Newsletter Yayyy!!!!!!

hey love,

I’m so tired; I don’t want to do anything.

We have all experienced moments in our lives when we feel tired and unmotivated, and all we want to do is stay in bed and scroll through social media or binge-watch a series. In fact, earlier this week, I felt that exact same way.

Lack of motivation to accomplish necessary tasks is something we all struggle with occasionally. Today, I will share my personal secret for maintaining productivity even when lacking motivation. (remember to keep it confidential love, it is only for Better Me Girl's .)

Remember, I told you earlier this week I felt unmotivated and tired, but even with that feeling I knew I had to be productive that day and I couldn’t procrastinate, because I had a deadline I had to meet. So, here is was what I did.

I decided to focus on lesser task that I could get done in a couple of minutes. And that involved me checking my emails, getting up from my bed to make it. Clearing out the dishes and writing out a to do list for the day. When I got done on that task I felt a little more motivated.

The next thing I did was to get my body moving, so I took a walk. It is proven that once you create physical momentum through movement, you will feel more energized and possibly more prepared to be productive. Honestly I felt so energized and happy after that walk.

So after that, I decided to get started on what I needed to do , not gonna lie, I still wasn’t really productive. I was spending so much time on a task and still getting next to no result, so I decided to take out all distraction. That meant me putting my phone away so I could concentrate more, and that really worked. I managed to complete the task and I felt extremely relieved.

Here are some other tips you could use when you feel less motivated to be productive: 

•  You could try zooming out from the task and looking at the bigger picture. This means asking yourself the questions: Why do I need to complete this task? What are the consequences of not completing it? This will help you realize that completing it at the end of the day is for your own benefit, and there is no need to procrastinate.

• You could also try bribing yourself. For instance you could say, if I get this task done then, I get to do this or eat that. This method is one of the few method I use quite frequently to get things done when I feel less motivated.

•  Another thing you could do is to break the task in to smaller tasks , that way you would feel less overwhelmed on more motivated after completing the smaller tasks.

  I hope you found this really insightful, and the next time you are feeling tired or unmotivated to be productive you could try out some of these tips.

for getting to this point, I want to say thank you, and just know it means a lot to me. enjoy your reading.

So here is the podcast of the week, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Here is the quote of the week, and it is just to remind us, to be more intentional about how we spend our time and how productive we could be. As you know, we are on the journey of becoming better women, and prioritizing what we do with our time and how productive we are, is a very important quality.

And as I promised earlier here are my three top songs of the week. if you also vibe with it, let me know, it makes me happy when I find someone that vibes with the same song as I do. If you haven’t listened to any, you should really give it a try, also let me know if you do.

I can’t tell you how much it means to me that you got to the end of this newsletter. All I can say is thank you. Remember to continue being the goal driven goal oriented boss babe that you are. I’m incredibly proud of you . Wishing you a fantastic week ahead.
