Here are four strategies that will help you get back on track.

 I have a question for you

When should you take a step back

Sometimes we need to take a step back in order to gain perspective of your vision. Taking a break from whatever it is that you are doing can be the perfect way to get some distance from the situation and clear your headspace. This could mean taking an afternoon off work or taking a day or two away from your project – whatever works for you! Taking time away will allow you to come back with newfound energy and enthusiasm for what you were working on before.

 

5 Tips for staying focused and motivated 

If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed or lacking motivation or your vision is becoming unclear, it can be helpful to speak with someone about it. Whether this is a friend, family member, mentor, or coach – having someone else listen and provide advice can help keep things in perspective for you and make sure that you don’t give up too easily! Try this… 

  • Write your goals down
  • Block out time in your schedule to work on your goals
  • Take breaks when you are feeling overwhelmed (do something fun)
  • Break down your goals into smaller tasks that you can complete 
  • Remove all distractions

 

Ways I can stay inspired

There are so many inspiring stories out there of people who have achieved incredible feats against all odds; reading these stories can help remind you that anything is possible if we put your mind and heart into it!  Reading about others who have gone through similar struggles as us can remind us of our strength and resilience, as well as inspire us to keep going even when we feel like giving up. Other ways to get inspired are

  • Watching a movie that has inspired you in the past 
  • Connecting with a friend or family member that has inspired you
  • Changing your environment  
  • Taking a social media break 
  • Spending time with yourself 
  • Revisit what inspired you in the first place
