Self Motivation 1
Do you have trouble getting yourself started somedays? Do you feel your mindset is not right for what you are doing?
I am sure we all have these feelings sometimes, but what should we do to get over them? My first answer would be to clear your mind of anything to do with the article you were going to write. Don't think about visiting site comments or doing anything along those lines.
If you are not in the right mindset then you are not going to give the 100% that you would want to give to the task in hand. It is time to ask yourself why you are in the mood or mindset that you are, and what put you there.Is it something someone has said, or an email that was unpleasent or maybe it is something hanging on from a previous day that didn't turn out the way you wanted or expected. Some people can just brush this aside but others take it to heart and it affects them, sometimes deeply.
It is time for change and you are the only one who can do that! First and foremost put the thing upsetting you out of your mind. I know easier said than done, at least until you get some practise of it. There are many ways you can change your mindset, but that is not always possible from where you are at the moment! STOP! Get rid of all the negatives. Just pretend they don't exist. Do something you really enjoy that can help you relax! I watch a couple of comedy programs or films to help me forget, but you need to do whatever helps you to relax.You may think this is just time-wasting. I would say you are wrong. You will waste far more time trying to do something when you are not in the right mindset.
You may spend several hours in the wrong mindset writing an article that shoul;d have been done a lot quicker only to look at it the next day and decide it is not good enough. To me that is time wasting.
If I can do something to help me get into the right frame of mind, to enable me work successfully, then to me, that is productive use of my time.
More to come.

98% of the stuff we worry about never comes true, and the 2% that does we have no control of.
I am a very positive person, because I learned that a positive attitude don't take to much energy.
