Winter Motivation: How I Stay Motivated During the Winter Months
- Hobbies & Side Hustles: Having a hobby & or side hustle is a great way to channel your energy & productivity to staying busy during winter. Mine is photography. Wanting to improve my photography, provides me with a purpose to get up each day & create more {new} images. You don't have to be a professional at anything in order to become motivated. The mindful commitment to practicing your skill, each day, will empower you to live your best life, even during the months of January to March.
- Fitness Routine: Committing to getting 8-10 thousand steps a day may not seem like much, but if you make it a goal to move your body for X amount of time or x amount of steps, your mental health & physical health will inspire you to stay active & limber all winter long.
- Get Outside: Yes, even in the winter {careful of ice & wind chill} I love to go outside & work out. The brisk air & the sun {whenever she showsup} does wonders for my mental & physical state of being.
- Treat Yourself: Treating yourself to accomplishing whatever it is on your list during the cold-weather months is another way to keep motivated. Treats don't have to be grand, they can be a Dunkin' ice latte run or an evening watching one of your favorite Youtuber's new videos.
- Read: Personally, I a someone who has to commit, & force myself to read. I try to read at least three interesting informative articles per day as well as a few chapters of whatever book I am reading at the time. Currently, I am making my way through a good chunk of Elin Hilderbrand novels.
