Here is a quick motivation tip that I do to get things done. I use it to tidy my bedroom, set my bag, do my chores and also do some studying.
1) I set my timer to a particular time. I usually set it for 5 minutes.
2) I quickly tidy my room (or do the other things I mentioned). As I know it's only 5 minutes (or less), I feel compelled to finish the task.
3) I usually finish before the timer is done (I then do some 'extra chores'). If I haven't, I simply set it again (for another five minutes!)
This tip might not work for everyone but it certainly gets me out of bed. I would consider myself quite the 'neat freak', but I can be lazy at times. I use this technique every single day - before work (when time is limited) and also when I come home. It really gets me motivated!
In regards to study, I set the timer for 30 minutes and reward myself to a 5 minute break.
If you really want a challenge, you can even set it to 1 minute for tidying up and so on.
Hope this tip helps you!
You will be surprised with what you can achieve in merely 5 minutes!
I used to do this before going to work in the mornings! I timed my shower, my hair and makeup and then my breakfast so I would actually leave the house on time! It was great! x
