19. Being Unmotivated

Time management tips:

  • Follow the Goal-Setting Theory: set specific, difficult and challenging goals.
  • Review future plans. Even if you aren’t excited about your current project, a long-term perspective may provide you with motivation to keep on going.
  • Trick your brain. Whenever we accomplish a task, our brains release dopamine, which is connected to feelings of pleasure and motivation. Break down your tasks into small goals to keep yourself motivated during long-term projects.
