Hello. I am in a better mood today because I have gone to the gym and it made me feel good.

Thanks Prefab. You know, I do wonder if I push myself too much. I push myself to do a lot of different stuff. Maybe my mind / body doesn't work that way. Actually, I was reading in a blog, that not everyone is made the same in terms of motivation, and its all genetic, like in our genes, everything we think and do (not pre-planned, just that our behaviors and motivations for those behaviors are genetically linked). Interesting to think about anyway. I thought it was kind of depressing too, but it was a motivational blog and there was helpful / encouraging info too. Anyway, that was a random tangent! Lol. But related

MickeyCheeky, you get a hug. I am glad to know I'm not alone. Thank you for the support

And hi Mr. Stranger! I know your question was directed at Prefabsprout, about what does make her do things and what motivates her? But I'll answer too. Sometimes I have no motivation to do something I planned to do. So I don't do it. I get so frustrated, as you can see. Other times I remember how I feel when I do do things, the feeling after. Like the gym or walking in nature, for instance. Today, I went to the gym, but I literally took a detour / joy ride before I actually went there. I'm wanting to get to the point where I don't do that much, either. But I'm not being hard on myself today.

There are definitely some things (and some times) I have more motivation for than others. Also, another thing I notice about myself is that when I procrastinate, I literally feel worse, emotionally, and the worse I feel emotionally, the harder it is to get myself to do stuff.

Social stuff, I know that I have social anxiety with new stuff.
Hugs from:
