Motivation. Sometimes you have it, and sometimes you don’t. Inspiration isn’t known for being predictable.
One moment you’re sitting on top of the world, the next you’re struggling to simply exist.
Regardless of how positive you may be, everyone needs to refill their motivation tank sooner or later.
Luckily, filling up your inspiration tank is less difficult than it seems.
Filling up your tank has never been so easy, and many times filling up is free.
Refilling Your Motivation Tank
Breathe: When was the last time you consciously chose to breathe? Purposeful breathing is by far the best thing you can ever do for yourself. Take some time and just breathe. Really, that’s it.
Breathe in… out.. in.. out.. Try taking 30 breathes and as you do so , feel your awareness forming in the present moment. Feels good doesn’t it?
Find Your Fuel: With the internet it’s easier than ever to find inspiration. Search for some motivational quotes. Watch some inspiring videos. Read a powerful book. Surround yourself with uplifting stimuli and watch your motivational tank fill up.
Connect: Humans are indeed social creatures, and many times that’s all we need. Surround yourself with people you love and genuinely care about.It’s remarkable how quickly your well-being changes when you surround yourself with tons of positive energy.
Disconnect: The fact that we live in a world of constant stimuli can be tremendously overwhelming.Every now and then make a deliberate effort to disconnect. Go on a walk outside. Find a quiet place and just be. Don’t talk just listen. The sounds of the universe the cure.
Be Lazy: Who says you have to be productive everyday? Take sometime and enjoy not doing anything. Watch some T.V take a nap or two. Sit on your butt and do nothing. Recharge, you deserve it.
Laugh: If you’re not laughing you’re not living. Watch a funny movie. Surround yourself with people that make you laugh. Better yet go to a comedy club. There’s an abundance of humor in everyday life as long as you’re open to receive.
The Road Is Waiting
Feeling unmotivated? Worthless?
Don’t let lack of motivation hinder your ability to live fully. Your purpose has yet to manifest.
Fill up your tank, get back on the road. Bliss boulevard is straight ahead.

Very artfully expressed, Bud!
Not doing anything (#5) is one of the methods that work well for me. Sometimes if I’m power-out, it’s a signal I need to take some time off to rest. As Stephen Covey’s 7 habit puts it, sharpening the saw.
Today I’m definitely feeling unmotivated for some reason so this was a PERFECT post for me. Thanks!!
Celes: Doing nothing is one of my favorite past times.
What a wonderful way to refresh!

Great Post. Love the way everyone is focusing on “not doing anything.” Cats are the kings of being lazy and making it look good – worth while remembering. Lol, i think a post is forming.
I feel I do better next when I do nothing first.
Good tips, Bud! Reading is usually my strongest source of inspiration and motivation. I find disconnecting very helpful as well, although in a different way. It gives me the rest I need to regain energy.
All great suggestions, but my favorite is laughter, as it reminds us of our natural state, full of happiness and joy. Your cares melt away during a good laugh – so go have a good time with your friends – and encourage laughter!
Ooh I really liked this article!
Great points bud!
