At the end of the day, I didn't do much, but I always felt too tired;In interpersonal communication, it is easy to feel embarrassed and nervous, and is reluctant to take the initiative to communicate;Famous psychologistCarl JungA concept has been proposed called"Mental energy"."Mental energy" is the driving force of personality, which pushes a person to complete various mental activities. This feeling of lack of motivation is actually ours"Mental energy".insufficient, falling into one"Can't get up".status. Today I want to talk to you about how to change this state and regain psychological vitalityMy head is still full of things that need to be done, but I still don't want to do it.
Accept wearinessBe "curious" about yourselfIn the information age, we rarely take the time to delve into our own feelings. If you're in a state of "can't lift up", you may want to try to accept the tiredness first. First of all, you don't need to rush to do something right away, but stop and listen to your body's signals. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and try to ask your body-What exactly is the lack of motivation?Is it a dull pain in your shoulders or a tightness in your head?How did you find out?Take a moment to experience the sensation until you can identify the discomfort and its specific location in your body. Ask yourself again: Will it change over time?Or is it consistent?You can not rush to change it, let it exist, or quietly observe for a while and accept it. You might be thinking:
Although I made a detailed plan, I couldn't do it step by step, so I kept criticizing myself; Even though my shoulder hurt twice today, I forced myself to keep my head down It turns out that I am already very tired.It's a proven way to deal with negative emotions and help you feel more clearly about your feelings and learn to live peacefully with them.
Reduce self-blameTry to adjust your "self-evaluation".The American psychologist Baumeister (Baumeister) proposed a theory of self-depletionThat is, even though you are not doing anything, every choice, entanglement, anxiety, and distraction is depleting your mental energy. Most of the time, you may not really want to do it, but in a state of procrastination, you will have "self-blame". Every time you are slow, you may engage in a barrage of self-criticism of yourself: "lazy bug", "you can't do anything", or "you're really good for nothing". These thoughts can often weigh you down.
Try to approach them in a more light-hearted way – for example, you can reduce these thoughts to a two-syllable word, such as "lazy," and then repeat them quickly for 30 seconds (e.g., "lazy, lazy, lazy......)."For example, you can imagine Mr. Zhao Zhongxiang, who uses his charming narration to tell your life;For example, you can sing these words jokingly as sh.e's "I don't want to grow up". Try as many as you can and see which one works best for youIt's important to note that the purpose of this is not to laugh at your ideas, but to reduce the stress they put on you. 03Stand up
Allow your body to "move".
When we feel that we can no longer work or learn Xi, we can immediately stand up and move our bodies. You can jump for a while and do a few squats;You can also do a few push-ups to get the blood flowing. Sitting at a desk for a long time, we feel that our body is stiff, not only in our posture, but also in our breathing, thinking, and even emotional. By simply "moving" our bodies, we are able to quickly return to our bodily sensations and relieve this "stiffness". If you can, take a quick walk around your home or office building. Of course, it would be great if you could take a walk in nature! 04Do something truly relaxingFind your own "comfort zone".You know, everyone can relax the things that are different. There may be people who are able to get their work done more quickly under pressure, while others need a more relaxed environment. For example, some people need a freshly brewed cup of coffee to refresh themselves when they are tired in the morning. Others prefer to leave important work late at night to be done more efficiently. So, instead of imitating others, you can explore your personal needs and preferences. If you're feeling tired right now, try to think back to the last time you were motivated. Maybe it's piling up sand high up on the beach, or maybe it's eating delicious food. Then ask yourself:What was the difference between then and now?How can you create that environment again to inspire you to act?
