I have many blog post topics that are currently in development. Yet, I find myself unable to finish very many of them. I had a great weekend so naturally I am know too exhausted for my hobbies. During the week I had long work days, and my camera wasn’t charged so I failed yet again to post any outfit posts, bla,bla,bla. The excuses go and on as you can see.
There are a
few things I have discovered in this blogger/wannabe writer journey. One thing no one tells you, is that you have
to read things other people write in order to get the creative juices flowing
and then you need to meet self-imposed writing deadlines. It’s hard to keep up
with the many other deadlines I need to meet at work- , at home, and to my
creditors and thus it seems hard to add even more deadlines to my life.
When the
enemy of all productivity, procrastination, rears its ugly face it can become
so overwhelming to think about all these of tasks that it’s easy to just put it
off all together and just watch HGTV. Here are some things I’m trying to do to
get back on track:
1) Just Do It- Sometimes you just have
to force yourself. Earlier in the week my Dr. told me that the times when I
really don’t want to work out are the times when my body needs it the most.
Same thing with those things you keep putting off, the more you put them off
the more you will develop anxiety over not getting things done, so then you go
and have a cheeseburger because you feel so out of control in your life. Then
you don’t sleep because you are ridden with guilt because not only have you put
off tasks, but you also consumed a meal that added more fat to your
thighs. Then you wake up the next day
feeling icky because you ate an unhealthy meal so you drag yourself to work and
are tired and moody all day. Then that to- do list becomes even longer and so
this pattern of self-loathing, self-destructive behavior repeats itself!
