Start the ball rolling

Motivation leads to action, and action leads to more motivation. If you're not motivated to do anything, do a little something anyway and start the ball rolling.

Even the smallest positive step can begin to create positive momentum. Take that small step, feel the tiny wisp of motivation and momentum, and let it carry you to the next modest step.

Even if it doesn't seem to accomplish anything, a small, initial positive action does in fact achieve something of great consequence. It gets you going.

Once you're in motion, you're much more likely to stay in motion. The longer you stay in motion, the more likely you are to keep going.

The best thing to do when you don't feel like doing anything, is to do something. Remind yourself that although you may be severely unmotivated, you can take a small action anyway.

No matter what your situation or level of motivation may be, there's some little something you can do. Do it now, get the ball rolling, and let the power of positive momentum push you forward.
