I struggle with this often.

I'm trying to change my mindset about it - instead of tasks just being more things on my to do list that often seem meaningless, I'm asking myself how will I feel about myself if I do it. And well, I want to feel good... so it's kinda of like taking care of myself. I just take a little at a time to manage being overwhelmed.

Knowing that I had open heart surgery and a stroke yet still lived to see another day. I count every day that I have had since then as a blessing, even if I'm not really doing what I want to do at the time.

That's difficult.

Sometimes what I do is just promise myself a I will do a little bit while treating myself to a good podcast or movie in the background.

And sometimes I just do do a little bit, which is still better than nothing.

But often I end up enjoying myself after a time, and losing myself in my own thoughts while I work away, or the audiobook/podcast.

Good luck 💙💙💙

If I'm not accountable to myself then I won't respect or like myself, and I get further away from who I want to be.

For me, it's the realization that if I don't do it, it won't get done.

OCD and anxiety

My dang problem is, I don’t know if I actually have more free time, or am I just forgetting stuff!
🤷😅

Fear of failure and not being good enough is my biggest motivator

Usually hunger

The feeling of accomplishment once the task is done

usually just spite.
