We all know the state when not only the soul, but also the little finger of the left hand does not want to do anything. Why this happens and how to make yourself work in the end - our article will tell about this.
Why don't you want to work?
There are several reasons for this reluctance. The most common one is that you are just tired. When was the last time you were on vacation? Maybe it's time to write a statement.
No money for a trip south? No problem. Spend your vacation in your hometown, go to the theater or cinema, visit museums, go to your grandmother in the village. Walk in the woods there. Buy a ticket in installments. There are a lot of options, there would be a desire. The main thing is not to ignore your right to rest.
Don't forget about the weekend too. They need to be carried out wisely, or better without it. Leave all work questions in the office, lock them there with a key, like secret documents in a safe. Stop thinking about your favorite or unloved work outside of it, especially taking it home. The same is, by the way, with household chores. Leave them in their rightful place too.
If at home you think about work, and at work that you have not had time to do the cleaning, you will soon realize that you simply do not have the strength. Know how not only to work, but also to rest.
The second reason is less commonplace, but just as common. You returned to work after a vacation or weekend and you just can't catch the rhythm of your work. The advice is the same - leave your memories at home.
In the evening you will come and take another look at the photographs brought from a warm country. This will add to your mood. But if you start constantly thinking about how good it was there and how sad it is here, at the workplace, you will be assured of an attack of apathy.

One more tip - start planning your next vacation as soon as you return from the previous one. The very fact that you will be looking through the various offers of travel agencies, choosing a country, time, studying prices will add optimism.
The third reason is not trivial and not very common. You are not doing your own thing. Every time you cross the threshold of the office, you already dream of leaving it. So maybe it's time to change the field of activity? Run away from your unloved job. Otherwise, depression will be on the doorstep.
The fourth reason is not at all trivial, although it is quite common. You are not appreciated at work. Your salary is barely enough to make ends meet, although you work conscientiously and even do it after hours. Run where your eyes will look. Take a look at job sites. Any work must be adequately paid.
The fifth reason - you are not in the mood, something is bothering you. We parted with a loved one, the child again brought a deuce, the parents fell ill. Take time off, take time off, solve problems, and return to work full of strength and energy, with a sense of accomplished family, parenting, or friendliness.
The sixth reason - you are attacked by a fit of laziness. Find out who opened the door for her. Surely behind this lies one of the above reasons.

What should be done?
It is sometimes difficult to force yourself to do something, even if everything looks fine at first glance. And this applies not only to employees, but also heads of large companies, and housewives, finally. How many times did you put the rag aside last Sunday? It is really difficult or even impossible to spend every day actively and achieve results. Arrange for yourself sometimes "fasting" days.
If not all day, then spend at least some part of it doing nothing. Just lie back on your favorite couch. Turn on your favorite music, be alone with it. Do not think about anything, and even more so do not try to find ways to solve this or that problem. Relax and enjoy life.
Drawn to sleep - don't even try to wake up. In this way, your body gives a signal that it needs rest in order to continue to serve you with faith and truth. So answer his request. He rarely refuses you.

Change of location
The office is noisy, hot / cold. Take your laptop and go to the next room where you can open / close the window. No such? Go to a quiet cafe around the corner if your boss doesn't mind. Change your workplace at least for a while. Give your eyes a break from the same picture.
At the end of the day, just take a walk around the office. 15 minutes - and you are cheerful. Return to the office and get to work.

Temporary standards
Your phone is bursting with the flow of information, new messages appear on social networks every now and then, a colleague again calls for a smoke break. There is simply no time left for work. Stop. Stop and engage exclusively in the performance of your direct duties.
Don't go into them completely. Just set yourself a time frame that you can use to the fullest to complete a particular task. There is a well-known method - "tomato". Set a timer for 25 minutes and work hard all this time. Phone, fax, social networks are not available for you at this time. And now you have already done what you have not reached your hands since the morning.
The method was invented by the Italian student Francesco Cirillo, when he realized that with all his efforts and zeal for learning, he could not cope with the preparation for the exams. He took the kitchen timer, made in the form of a tomato (hence, by the way, the name of the method), turned it on for 25 minutes, and all this time he was engaged only in his studies. Soon his affairs took off.
After the "tomato" session, be sure to take a break. Recharge yourself for a few minutes of rest every hour.

Workplace cleaning
Organize your desktop. It seems to you that everything is fine with you, the main thing is that everything is at hand.How many minutes did you search for a pencil an hour ago? Remove from the table all unnecessary and distracting from work. Vacation photos first. Free space will give you creative freedom.
It is impossible to work in a mess, sooner or later it will be transferred to your head, no matter how bright it may be.

other methods
In order to cope with the surging laziness, you can use less radical techniques than previously described.
- If your assignment seems too difficult, try breaking it down into several parts. Perhaps you need to ask for help from colleagues or just take a break from this topic for a while. Do the other job first, then come back to this one.
- If you can't bring yourself to start, remember what awaits you at the end of the path. Perhaps this is a prize, gratitude from the authorities, respect from colleagues, self-respect, finally. Nothing? Everything is as usual? Then promise yourself a chocolate bar. Motivate yourself to work.
- Always try to get the most difficult and unpleasant part of the job done in the morning. Leave the rest for sweet, let it be "dessert".
- Plan your work day in advance. Make it a rule in the evening to make a to-do list for tomorrow. Thus, you not only structure your day, but also understand what matters can be postponed or delegated to someone. Remember to keep time in your schedule for unforeseen temporary expenses. An urgent task from the authorities, a call from school from a child - you will be in time for everything, you have a plan.

Recommendations
In a healthy body there is not only a healthy mind, but also a desire to work, therefore the recommendations are as follows.
- Be outdoors more often. Is there no way to find an hour every day to walk in the park? And no time to run? Start at least with the fact that on the way home from work or / and vice versa, walk one stop and only then get on the bus. Do you have a private car? Leave your car not under the office windows, but on the next street. Our brain needs to get oxygen, without it it "dries up" and refuses to work.
- Go in for sports. Exercise also provides our brains with oxygen. Find some time at least for a light exercise, or better - sign up for a gym, because you probably have it on your way home from work. One hour of class is much better than 60 minutes of watching TV.
- Don't overeat. On a full stomach, of course, it is better to think, but not on an overworked one. Try to eat right. It is not necessary to exclude fatty, starchy and sweet foods altogether, unless, of course, your state of health requires it, but it is worth limiting yourself in "snacks". Include more greens, vegetables and fruits in your diet. Vitamins, by the way, are also welcome and are displayed on performance.
- Drink plenty of water. 1.5-2 liters per day. Not tea or coffee, but water. Only this life-giving moisture can help our body to work smoothly.
- Avoid stress and negative emotions... Something went wrong? Look at the situation from the other side. Find the positives. Learn to abstract and take care of your nerves.
- Sleep at least 8-9 hours straight. This is exactly what our body and brain need to fully recover and be ready for new achievements.
- At least sometimes do "TO" of your body. Get a medical checkup from time to time. Remember - it is easier to defeat the disease at the initial stage, then it will take much more time and money than a preventive visit to the doctor.
If you follow all of these recommendations, or at least some of them, then bouts of laziness will begin to appear in you less and less often. Remember that patience and work will grind everything, and rest will help them in this.
