In the beginning of 2021, I was fed up feeling tired and unmotivated. Didn’t really have this ‘higher purpose’ and nothing really seemed to make sense. I had long break from the gym – which I really do enjoy – but was just really anxious to go there. All the negative news floating from every other social media page to newspapers to online magazines. It made me feel sick physically and mentally. I was completely exhausted. Zero motivation. Drowning my sorrows and anxiety to every random hobby I found interesting. Lacking motivation again after couple of weeks.
January 2022, one morning I was watching outside while drinking my morning coffee, and in that small energy fueled moment, I took my journal and started writing phrases down.
What are my goals? What do I really want from my life?
I didn’t really know the answers but i scrambled some notes, which firstly came to my mind.
- To find inner peace and happiness
- To be healthy and exercise
- To be more social and meet friends
- Be confident and do things you’d always wanted to do
| January | Started my Journal, used calendar to track down events and to-do’s |
| February | Started to listen to Podcasts and reading articles about self-development |
| March | Tracking down my workout-activity, started listening to e-books |
| April | Tried to learn things to motivate myself when feeling not-so-motivated, being kind to myself when not achieving my own high standards |
| May | Solo trip to Poland, feeling myself the most free I’ve ever felt, seeing more friends and having trips in the nature |
| June | Started this blog, this month’s goal: to be more aware of emotions and accepting them – be more empathetic towards my own needs. Key-phrase: “you don’t need to be perfect all the time” |
