Not in the mood for work + feeling "meh"


Not feeling up to it lately?

You're not the only one! And it's every type of "worker" I know...

๐Ÿ‘‰ The highly motivated entrepreneurs with enormous goals
๐Ÿ‘‰ The brand new career changers who are usually uber-excited
๐Ÿ‘‰ Even those people driven by a deep sense of purpose are feeling the "ugh" of summer right now

So if you're feeling less than your usual - whatever it is - you're definitely not alone.

Are you someone who can sit back and chill with ease?

๐Ÿ’ช Or are you more like me...and you love to stay busy until you suddenly realize you desperately need a break? ๐Ÿ’ช

I've decided to embrace the "ugh" and slow things down for the next week or so...

Not because it's fun or easy...because it's not...at least for me!

Maybe you're already on it and fully embracing the slow-down?

How's your summer going?

Always from the heart,
Robin

Does it look like I'm just writing about what grinds my confidence into dust? ๐Ÿ˜‚ It's true...but also I hear this sentiment from LOTS of people! Side note - People with serious soft + hard skills say this to themselves (although it's usually about their highly-lucrative soft skills) You may think your hard skills (like web design, proofreading, bookkeeping, graphic design, copywriting, etc) are the big important skills. They are....but it's your soft (and usually invisible to you) skills that...

Ever wake up not in the mood...for whatever's on your to-do list today? I do...you probably do...and the truth is ๐Ÿ‘‡ That person you desperately wish you could magically tranform into does too (yep...all of 'em) What do you normally do when you're just not feeling it? ๐Ÿ˜• Try to force yourself?๐Ÿ˜• Distract yourself with...anything?๐Ÿ˜• Tell yourself how much you suck? I've tested all of these...thoroughly ๐Ÿ˜‚ They don't help me get anything useful done. But...maybe you're different? I'd love to know!...
