How to stop the spiral down?

Lately, I've lost motivation to post on LinkedIn. Here's my plan to get back on track.

I was thinking about how to reverse this downward spiral.

I realized I need to start with one small step. Something quick yet complete that adds a wee bit of value.

So, whenever your motivation is dwindling:

🟢DO: Pick one minimal value-creation task. It should be small... But still add at least a tiny bit of value to someone.

🔴DON'T: Spend 60 minutes writing an ambitious three-month “back on track” plan. That's just another way to procrastinate... And spiral down even faster!

For example...

Can't motivate yourself to train for running long distances? Restart with a 15-minute jog.

Struggling to eat healthy? Spend 30 minutes cooking an easy recipe.

Can't motivate yourself to write a post? Take 30 minutes to write about how you restarted with just one post.

Then, the next day, start again. One small step after another.

Who knows, maybe 30 days later you'll be spiraling up. Then, you can plan!

PS1: This was my post. Probably obvious for most of you, but at least I restarted writing!
