What do you do when you can’t sleep

If you are feeling stuck, frustrated or have trouble motivating yourself to do the things you need to do. Then lean in sister, today I am going to show you how to get unstuck and motivated.

First things first we must realise that no one wakes up motivated. I truly believe those that “do” or appear to wake motivated have created routines to help them feel motivated. Routines that fire up their internal state to then more easefully feel motivated to do all the things. So let’s create you a rock-solid routine too.

How to get UNSTUCK and motivated

1: The night before

Have you heard that a summer body is created in the winter? Well, it is and your morning motivation starts the night before.

So before you finish your day brain dump what you want to do the next day. Write it all out. Look back over it twice and cross out things that aren’t really important. And star the things you can delegate. And the end of your brain dump write an affirmation that expressed how you will feel when this is done. (This is tomorrow’s starting point)

2: Morning Fire up:

Now you’re awake it’s time to fire up your energy. You can do this with meditation, movement, dancing around in the bathroom to your favourite song, journalling out your perfect day or by writing almost of all the things you love and are grateful for. And repeat your mantra that you created the day before

3: The only question that matters.

Now you’re fired up, your energy is flowing and you should be in a state of feeling good. A positive flow state. The next step is to ask the only question needed to get you started.

Look at the list you wrote the night before. Now ask yourself this question

>> “What feels the easiest or most fun place to start?” …then do that task.

Why? Starting at what feels easy and fun makes getting started faster and increases your confidence whilst helping you to overcome any mind blocks. Once you’ve started you keep moving through your list asking that question each time. Before you know it. You would have knocked of your list and feel on top of the world.
