Sometimes we may feel tired and do not have motivation to do the things that we "should" be doing.
There may be many reasons for lack of motivation. Today, Let us focus on one reason that we usually do not pay attention to.
What if the reason for lack of motivation is that we are not true to ourselves and are not doing what is line with our heart?
What if your heart wants you do task B and you are trying do task A as a priority?
What if doing what you need to do is to be vulnerable while you are told to be strong and composed?
What if giving your power away which is sapping your energy and self-esteem?
Perhaps lack of energy is a sign for you to re-consider your priority and focus.
Do not beat yourself up for lack of energy. Look for the root cause.
Is what you are doing is aligned with your heart?
Is what you are doing bringing you joy?
Are you doing anything significant during the day that feeds your soul?
Do what you really love and do it without fear or concern. Your energy and motivation will bounce back very quickly.

An underlying cause, depression, may not be apparent at first.
In my late 50s, I found myself running out of steam about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. When I told my primary care physician about it, he suggested that I take a multivitamin. When I started taking the multivitamin, I found that I could work on until 7 or 8 o'clock without stopping, my appetite picked up, I slept better, and had a general feeling of being less tired.
Recently, reports came out stating that most people do not need vitamin supplements because they get what they need from what they eat and drink. Because of my experience, I continue to take a multivitamin and, even at my ever advancing age, I have a lot of energy and can work long hours, as much as 10 hours a day writing and communicating.
