“Covid-19 has left us with less control over our daily lives; job loss or the inability to work effectively is affecting our sense of competence; and social distancing and lockdown are serious relationship strains.”
Shifting the situation we’re in and looking for places where we have control – however small, will help increase motivation. The power of ‘small wins’ has long been linked to increased motivation, reminding us that we can act on our own free will, mastering our challenges and that we can push back on the inner negative thinking.
So small changes to your routine to spice things up can help. Whether it’s cooking something new for dinner or walking a different route around your neighbourhood, these small changes can give you a sense that you are doing new things that you enjoy and that your needs matter.
