4 Ways To Get Motivated And Inspired

We all have those moments where we just don't feel right. Whether it be the dreaded writer's block, or simply the lack of motivation to get something done. Here are some methods you can use to get yourself back up on your feet and ready to work.

1. Go out and do something.

Whatever it is that you like to do with your free time, do that. Go for a run, hike on your favorite trail, or visit the beach and breathe in the salty sky. Sometimes the quickest fix is simply leaving your work space.

"Go where you feel the most alive."

2. Read a book or listen to music.

Picking up a good book or listening to your favorite music can ween your mind away from whatever stress or thoughts are tying you down. It's such a beautiful feeling getting lost in artists' words.

"The world is so much bigger than your brain -- stop living inside your head."

3. Engage in conversation.

Talk to someone, whether it be your coworker, friend or a stranger you come across at the park. Face to face conversation is refreshing, and you can learn so much by putting yourself out there and talking to someone new.

"People often forget that kindness is free."

4. Reorganize your space.

When you return to your office or work space, clean up your surroundings and organize your items. Having a clean and tidy space will help you stay focused and diligent.

"Have less, do more, be more."

Hopefully you can get past whatever is holding you back. Remember that it is normal to occasionally feel unmotivated and uninspired, but don't let yourself fall into those feelings for long -- you got this.

"I look with my heart and my ears and my mind because beauty is lost looking just with your eyes."

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
