| Hello this sounds like me, Im only a few years older. I also have many things I would like to do but have always settled for good enough. I feel like I don’t have enough drive/motivation? One thing thats changed recently is I started eating a lot more protein and working out more consistently. I was definitely under eating before. Im not suggesting crazy diets or major changes. But I just started eating more, not skipping breakfast etc and going to the gym/cardio. Ive noticed it’s given me a boost of energy that I never had. Maybe its placebo or temporary. But I swear Ive noticed a difference. Another thing is planning. Im an awful planner and I have refused to use a planner since grade school. This is one thing Im currently trying to change as well. When you have X things you’re trying to do, planning it out removes much of the mental work of “what to do next”. Instead of thinking about what to do, you can instead do something useful. Last thing, is just do it. I get wrapped up in my head with over analyzing and bring myself down to not even try. Ive been trying to push that voice out and “just do it”. I am far far from becoming an overachiever. However I definitely relate to your post. So I thought maybe this might help you. |
