..for those times when you just can't get motivated and the to-do list is getting longer and longer?

Eating a whole chocolate Easter bunny didn't work.

Sadly.

New simple easter rituals (and easter writing on the walls) are called for! What’s to be motivated about? Spring is coming! Easter is coming! And maybe some more chocolate????

Sometimes when I just cannot get motivated I let myself do whatever I want. That might mean binge-watching Downton Abbey, having Thai takeaway and champagne or taking a nap. Eventually, and it may take a few days, I wake up feeling full of life again and ready to go.

Sometimes my body and mind just need a rest and the more I ignore it the less motivated I feel. This may not be the case for you though. If not, you could try doing things for just ten minutes - eg 10 minutes picking up the house, ten minutes pulling weeds in a garden bed. Short bursts often lead me to get back in the mood for doing things.

And if all that fails, eat some more chocolate!

All good advice from Cathy, Julia and Madeleine. Just enjoy the moment and definitely more chocolate.

Write things you have already done on to the to-do list and cross them off with a flourish!

These are the days I do mindless jobs like the laundry, cleaning the bathroom and so on, with reading in between. At the end, I feel that I have at least achieved something, and they then aren't sitting there waiting for me when get-up-and-go returns! I'm super disciplined with chocolate, same tiny amount each day, but crisps are not safe!

I think the problem may be because you've only eaten ONE Easter bunny Freda... I'm reliably informed that for bunny style bounce they really need to be eaten in pairs! :-)

LOL at Lotta's comment. Sounds entirely reasonable. :)

And Freda...have you noticed?...all of the above advice came from YOU and your blog at one time or another...you are the teacher and we all get a gold star for paying attention..:-)
Not sure about Lotta’s advice coming from you..but it gets a big gold star too!
