Motivation. Yeah there’s science to it, intrinsic and extrinsic, yada yada, but that’s not today’s post. Today is about what to do when you’re actually lacking motivation...
I’ve been there. I’ve had days where I even find it difficult to get out of bed, let alone work out. So what helped me? My circle.
Now, when I say circle, yeah of course family and friends come into it, but also your social media accounts. Are you following loads of accounts you really couldn’t give a f*ck about because they’re posting loads of giveaways, or they followed you so you feel obliged to follow back... you’re grown. You don’t need to follow4follow some random chick because she said you look pretty and have 🥴
You do you. Social media is really what you make it, and on my days where I feel meh, I come to Instagram and because I follow the people I want to follow, my feed is full of motivating quotes, and full of people that genuinely inspire me.
If you’re social media isn’t inspiring you, you’re doing it wrong. If your social media is getting you down, you’re also doing it wrong.
Now this doesn’t mean you should depend on an app to be your motivation, all I’m saying is maybe consider your following to better your own mental health and sanity. Because I was definitely a victim of hating Instagram because all I followed was ‘influencer’ girls and feeling sorry for myself.
No no no. Get up. Get your workout done. And create a community that you really enjoy being a part of, and your motivation will have another aid from social media🤍✨ over and out team. HAPPY SATURDAY!!! ✌🏼💓
