Daily Motivation: What Keeps You Going?

I focus on one thing that I'm into at the time being, and throughout the day I remember I have that to look forwards to all day. One thing thats helped me a LOT with motivation and hopelessness is being able to plan at least one thing for me to look forwards to each day or week.

I take care of my cat every day. If i dont get up and feed him he screams until you do so I have to start the day. When Im unwell he notices and cuddles with me. Hes always someone to talk to and bonding with an animal is a precious experience. I love him and I have to take care of myself or he doesnt get taken care of.

Its also important to express dark feelings without dwelling on them — turn them into something positive and fun

I do everything i want, follow my dreams, and i dont waste my time on things i dont want to do. Or just 1 thing: rest while the tv plays something familiar and i play on my phone
