Taking steps toward a more productive pandemic

Like much of the world right now I’ve found myself becoming unproductive, pretty much just doing the bare minimum to get through the day – and spending the rest of my time watching TV or sitting on my phone.

Now, although I know that I shouldn’t feel bad about spending my days like this – we’re living through a pandemic right now for goodness sake! Some days I do loads of things, but others I barley do anything, and I feel so lethargic and down on those days. So, for my mental health, I’m going to try to do my best to be more productive and to try to get out of bed before 10AM! Watch this space…

I don’t know about you, but writing lists is always my go-to first step to being more productive. So, here’s my list for the next few days:

• Get out of bed and start working before 9AM – easier said than done but I’ll give it a go.
• Do more workouts – There are so many apps and videos out there now, many of which are offering free workouts including Yoga and aerobics.
• Turn off the TV – I know all too much that its anti-productive to watch the TV, but Disney+ has taken over my life recently!

It may only be a small list at the moment, but it’s a start! Remember, there is no right or wrong way to act in lockdown. I personally feel better when I’m being productive, so that’s why I want to make a few changes. But if doing nothing all day makes you happy, then go ahead! Honestly, I’m not trying to be preachy, this is a very personal experience and writing this short blog has been my way to deal with it. 

Stay safe guys!
