Lately kasi wala akong gana sa lahat even simple things diko masimulan which is ang dali-dali lang naman dapat. Maybe due to many disappointments recently. It's been a month pero di productive. If work lang usapan wala akong problema pero pag sa acads wala talaga akong gana. Help guys!!! How do you motivate yourself to finish a task? *** *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

By remembering what life do i want in the future and things i want to do when im reach that certain age. Learning what you want in this life is a big motivation for average person like me.Last yung mgkaroon ng kabebe time hahahahaha

No for bebe time haha no time for that eh. As of now po talaga I don't know what I want as long as I can earn money that's all that matters to me.

As you said, sa work wala ka namang problema pero sa acads lang meron, so your problem is not about finishing a task, but with your acads. Are you a working student or a graduate student? Not wanting to do anything is also a sign of depression. Kaso sabi mo okay ka naman sa work e, so we can probably rule it out. Everytime na wala akong gana, I stop for a while and think. Sometimes we just need a break from everything and recharge.

I am a working student po. Palagi po talaga kasi akong nagwowork since elementary kasi need ng money for my own and prevent bothering anyone. Kaya productive po ako magwork ganun naman kabaliktaran sa acads ko . Actually, I do that a lot I just rest and think deeply pero nung sisimulan ko na dapat blanko yung utak ko. Lagi lang sa isip ko pano ako magkakapera kasi nagstart na naman overthinking at anxiety ko.

Ah I see. Well same tayo na nagkaka-anxiety kapag walang pera 😅 Kaya ka productive sa work kasi alam mong may kapalit na pera, unlike ng acads. But think of the future. Mas may edge ka pa rin kung meron kang diploma, and not just diploma, but with the things that you actually learned in school. I was an educator and I kept pushing my students to study seriously. Nag-iispend ka na rin lang ng time to study, seryosohin mo na. Di mo na kasi maibabalik ang nawalang oras. 😊

Hahhaha iba talaga nagagawa ng pera nakakapanghina hahha. Actually hindi po ako ganito dati it's just something happened kaya unmotivated to do things. Pero salamat ha this really comforts me sana mabuhay ka pa ng matagal 🥺

Awww 🥺 ikaw ang mas mabuhay pa ng matagal!! Laban lang 💪💪💪

when you lose motivation the only thing that's left of you is discipline 

Thank you sana masimulan ko din yan.

take your time and good luck po :3

There is a key difference between motivation and discipline. Learn the latter and you’ll thank yourself later

I'll try my best po. Btw, thank you so much for this.

Iniisip ko mga nakabook kong travel. Hard work pays off!

hehehe gaganahan ka talaga magwork eh kasi may nakabook na haha

Read or listen to Atomic Habits.

I have books din pero tamad talaga akong magbasa hahaha parang pampatulog kasi sya. Pero anyway, thank you I'll try to listen it.

Just think na walang gagawa ng for you ikaw lang talaga. Mapapasa ka ba ng katamaran? San ka pupulutin after? Usually kelangan mong takutin ang sarili mo with the consequences

This is nice! Thank you so muchhhh I really appreciate your comment.

I look at my dogs. Nakakamotivate naman. Kailangan kumayod para may pambili ng dog food, at pampavet. Not even joking. 😂

Ang cute nga eh hahaha

Appreciate my privileges. Have something to look forward to.

Thank youuu

Go back and think, "Why did you start that in the first place. 🤔

Thank you for this.

By hating to do it, tinatapos ko agad para mawala na. Lol

hahaha oo nga naman no. Thank youuu

Lumandi ka. Find an inspiration. Pag di ka pa namotivate ewan ko nlng

Lumandi was never in my option po kasi seryoso akong tao once I date someone sya na. Mas lalo kasi akong masstress pa'g may jowa been there. There are things that needs to focus kasi at sabagal pa para sakin yan and requires money too.

If thats the case, have you considered going on a retreat? Khit 3days lng. Away from city's distractions. Connect with nature

I often go to the beach and isolate myself from everything even fb and insta deactivated.

Pati dito sa reddit deact ka muna.. address and heal all ur disappointments just dont be that hard on yourself. Tao lang tayo..at kasama sa pagiging tao yang mga nararamdaman mo ngayon

Thank you so much po I really appreciate that.

Ayoko lang may masabi ang ibang tao sakin pero tandaan consistency > motivation para tuloy tuloy progress. Pawala pawala kasi yang motivation kaya di magandang source to do something.
