Is it horrible well no not horrible I guess we all go through rough patches…… currently mornings consist of trying to conquer a morning routine…… sometimes exhaustion (mental/emotional) takes over but importance here is I never give up!!!! Learning to understand that downtime is needed has been hard…. Idk food for thought…..
The earlier I go to bed the better the morning is.
I really love my job. I love the people I work with. It’s the first time I’ve ever been motivated to go to work day after day, and the days fly by and I really wish I could stay longer.
On the weekend, I look forward to Monday and getting into work. I know it sounds weird, and so many people are looking forward to the weekend. But I like my job and I do it really well, and my bosses believe in me and my ability. It makes it all worthwhile.
I think the answer to both questions is my kids. They are really my everything.
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas we invested our time and energy in our kids - we want them to flourish.
Reading. And eating hehe
@soulsings
- What do you look forward to during your day? Leaving work.
- What motivates you to get out of bed in the morning? COFFEE!!!!!!! (and to feed the critters)
@courageouspanda2006 how do you feel after a cup of coffee?
@soulsings
I feel like I need another cup. 😂
I got up at 12:45 a.m. this morning and don't have to be at work until 6 a.m.
This is becoming normal for me.
@courageouspanda2006 how many hours did you sleep?
@soulsings Maybe 4 hours? Every now and then, I sleep in and get 5 or 6 hours. I have no problem going to sleep, I can't stay asleep.
@courageouspanda2006 there are a number of possible reasons why people cannot stay asleep.
My mom liked wine but she would wake up in the middle of the night and not go back to sleep.
Eating a heavy meal before bedtime I heard causes waking up early, but there are many medical conditions also.
The problem I have if I do not sleep enough my brain does not function right.
@soulsings I try not to eat 2 hours before bed. I used to have a glass of bourbon before bed but that escalated to more glasses. When I wake up, I'm wide awake. I guess I take a power nap or something.
What motivates me to get out of bed is my cat banging his head into mine repeatedly and then pawing me in a place that is located in the middle of my body so I will change his litter box and feed him. After that I do my gratitude journaling, meditate and of course this app and then exercise. 😊
@azureAcres1605 so you have one of those mobile alarm clocks!
What do i look forward to do during the day.
Nothing... not like, nothing because i wanna do nothing. But nothing because i literally can't find something productive to do or i'm willing to find something. I'm tired, all the time. And i'm unmotivated to do anything.
What motivativatesnmebto get up of bed in the morning?
Nothing. It's just routine. I have a job to get to. I'm used to execute order since when i was in school. That's all i know. That's all i do. Wake up, go to work, come from work, eat/shower/phone, sleep, repeat. No friends, no brakes, nothing. It's been for years now. I once liked to play videogames, now i don't feel anything when i'm alone. And i'm alone almost all the time, and when i'm not alone, i'm wlone with people around me. Because i don't feel understood anyway.
@DryRain16 that sounds like you are in a routine that does not have a lot of joy. Depression can darken everything.
Kudos to you for persisting and working. Hope 7 Cups gives you some respite.
