lovejoy

sometimes, when i'm overly tired of pretty much everything, i try to rest in the evening with a beverage, and the next morning i understand this is a bad idea. 

a good, but very counterintuitive strategy is to take an experiment: take a day to focus on things you really DON'T feel like doing (instead of following what your brain typically tells you to do). surprisingly, it often turns out that i ignore and postpone things which are:
1) actually improving my life a lot
2) not that hard to do once i start

for 2)

activation energy in chemistry feels like it draws parallels 

find your catalyst (mine is usually music in headphones)

i like pretending i am smart. /lovejoy by day; yoink anytime. we /honk: goosegang.netlify.app

oh yeah, there are things that work for me, music included. 
sometimes i just get in a VERY BAD mood (once or twice a year), when i find myself in a condition where i just can't focus on anything no matter how i try. Takes some effort to get out of that 😝 especially when it's autumn/winter - cold, dark and bleh

good old seasonal depression (hence why i ran away to the other side of the world)
