Words of Motivation

[drifting damo]

Raaaaaaaah, i've got a huge uni project and tonnes of work to do by mid-september and i just haven't got the motivation! Really making me dispair.

Has anybody got any motivational words/sentences to get me (and anybody else that needs it) going?!

Never put off til tomorrow, what you can do today. (or something like that )

Couldn't find any words but can empathise.
Got research project due in Sept which my tutor already thinks I'm well behind with.
I've had a free day to be getting on with it, as well as a few other bits I need to do and guess what I've done? N O T H I N G which is sooooo S T O O P I D.
I have terrible procrastination problems which I think are mainly about anxious avoidance or some might say I'm just lazy but that doesn't make me feel very good. Other people can do their work so why can't I?
Well I still have a few hours left to do something I guess but I'm working tomorrow so I need to put aside sometime to prepare (anxiety wise) for that.
Anyway, sorry that's probably not very motivational at all!!!

Thanks, not very

That's just likeme Likeme. But it's comforting to know someone is in EXACTLY the same boat drifting on a similar sea.



Thanks Shaz and Guacamole, great start

Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow!

Wish I knew the answer, I have terrible problems with procrastination myself.
The only thing I find that helps is to set a time limit of 15 minutes a day to do the thing that needs to be done, that way I can usually do it eventually.

think of the end result that's all I can say - it'll be worth it in the end.

Sorry to hijack your thread to moan but
I've still done NOTHING today and I feel really disappointed in myself and yet I'm still not making any effort to put it right!!!

Hope you're getting on ok, damo
