Ways to Undo Laziness
By Chef K.T. Murphy
Laziness can make us unhappy, jealous, unhealthy, even poo. There are so many reasons to not be lazy. So many people wake up, most likely late in the days, and let life take over from there. With an “oh. whatever will be, will be” attitude. We must have some control over the ways our lives turn out and develop. The most successful and happy people know how to manage their lives for productivity. They manage and take control, meeting deadlines and are productive members of society
Here are 10 ways to undo laziness…
1. Set Your Alarm Clock
Since everyone has a different schedule, there’s no one time to set your alarm clock. Make sure you get good quality sleep, but don’t overdo it. This leads to unhealthy habits and procrastination/laziness.
2. Set Goals
If we set goals then that means we need to work toward them. Being lazy will never allow you to accomplish your goals. Take the initiative to get up in the morning and go at it every day.
3. Make a Schedule for Yourself
A schedule will keep you from sitting idle while doing nothing beneficial to your progress. Create a routine and follow it until you need to change it up. It’s all about progress and not sitting still.
4. Find a Passion
Start exploring and trying new things. In this process, you might find something you’re extremely passionate about. Often times we dabble in so many things but we don’t stick with something in which we can really progress. Now, it’s good to try many things but passion will drive us to be better!
5. Get an Accountability Partner
People are great… well, the ones that will make us better. Find someone who is willing to push you and don’t be offended when they point something out about your habits. If we go through life blind, then we will never accomplish anything. Listen to other people and be open to constructive criticism.
6. Get active
Discipline when it comes to fitness will carry over into other areas of your life. Considering exercise is one of the most dreaded activities of all time, yet, we can’t help but develop good habits if we stick to an exercise plan.
7. Don’t Be Afraid of Change
If your current routine isn’t doing it for you, then you might need to change things up a bit. It’s ok to want to do something different because, in all honesty, you’ll likely get a different result. Get a new job, start a business, make new friends, set new goals; these are fantastic changes you can make for bettering your life. Change is good and necessary for most people.
8. Challenge Yourself
Oftentimes laziness is a result of not challenging your mind. There’s no stimulation and you don’t feel the motivation to do anything. Well, this is where challenging yourself is important because we need to extend ourselves in order to grow. Look at challenges as a growth phase in your life.
9. Meet New People
If you tend to find yourself being lazy, then meeting new people can be a good thing. Generally, other people will be involved in activities which we tend to follow along with and who can influence us. It’s good to meet people who are after something which can motivate us to do something rather than succumbing to laziness.
10. Change Your Mindset
Your mind will determine how you perceive life. If you change the way you think by developing good habits, then you can get yourself out of the lazy mindset. It’s important that you do this so that life will not pass you by. Doing something productive can change your mindset toward life and you’ll be better equipped to reverse laziness.
Only you can change you!
All the best, Good Food makes For Better Decisions.
