Human brains are wired to be lazy. We are created in such a way that we always try to save energy by choosing the easiest path or do work which requires less energy. We procrastinate the rest. Sometimes we feel immensely motivated when we think of a task for example eating healthy or hitting the gym or preparing for interviews or exams. But halfway we loose motivation and start thinking why did we choose to do this in the first place. The main reason is burn out. Though motivation can help us start something it can't keep us on track and we often tend to loose track. Here are few ways to overcome this burn out.
1) Start small: If you want to start working out start by splitting the routine into morning and night for 5 mins in each routine and you can gradually expand this. But most of us tend to do it for 30 mins - 45 mins per day and get body aches and quit in few days.
2) Make it easy: This to simplify our task. For example if u want to work out in the morning then set a time, keep ur clothes ready prev night. If u want to eat something healthy plan prior on buying groceries and if ur taking sprouts soak them the prev night to make it ready in the morning. If you have an exam to prep then take sometime to sort out the materials and question papers earlier so that when u actually plan on studying u can get to that task immediately instead of doing everything at once.
3) Move on from failures: This is very imp because whenever we start doing something we tend to imagine we will get the task done and be unprepared for failures. And if we encounter one we become deeply sad and disturbed and quit. I know failures hurt but we have to be often prepared for failures before handed.
Failures can be simple like you not getting up to workout in the morning or little tough lik failing in a job interview. Either of the situation results in quitting the task. Instead we should continue working out the next morning or learn from mistake and apply for the next interview. I know its easier said than done but to keep moving forward we have to do it.
We can get back on track if we try the things mentioned above. If u still don't feel lik doing it you probably need a break to relax urself and refresh. Thank for reading this blog. bye😀
