I have been feeling like that for a while. We went through a lot in this country with the violent protests of 2019, followed by the pandemic with some of the strictest lockdowns in the world. This country is also falling apart in the last year and it is horrible to watch. It makes me feel like why should I even bother?


It feels like I can't get back to doing pre-pandemic things and I have little motivation. For example, I have a huge list of things to do around the house and a financial issue to resolve, but I keep putting them off. I need to exercise more too. I have also been bored with work lately.


I am working on trying baby steps. Dealing with everything is too much. This past weekend, I told myself I would spend half an hour doing yard work and after that I could stop. I ended up doing almost an hour. I think getting started is the worst part. So, maybe you can set a goal of 15 minutes of exercise. Then, once you start, maybe you can make it to 20 instead of 15? But, if you just do 15, don't beat yourself up over it either.
