As I sit writing this, I’m thinking of how tired and unmotivated I’ve been feeling recently. Whether it’s to do with this blog, my uni work or my internship. I think it was as soon as I got my placement offer. Finally, I’d got the one thing I’d been working so hard for this semester. I’d been losing sleep, missing uni and missing my friends. But as soon as I got it, all the tiredness overcame me all at once and I was out for the count. All I’ve been wanting to do is stay in bed.
Now It’s heading towards exam season, and I’m trying to catch up on everything I’ve been trying to get motivated. I started to think of all the women I look up to, and how they must have all felt this way too. But, they never let their de-motivation get in the way of their goals. Even when they hit the lowest of the low, they dragged themselves up and got shit done.
