Self-motivation on a lazy Sunday afternoon can be a tricky thing to come by. It’s easy to get caught up in the “Sunday Scaries” and feel unmotivated to do anything productive. But fear not, for there are ways to trick yourself into getting things done on a lazy Sunday.

First and foremost, try bribing yourself with food. Make a delicious snack or treat that you only allow yourself to have once you’ve completed a task. This way, your stomach will be your motivator.

Another great trick is to play some upbeat music and dance around your room like a crazy person while getting ready to tackle your task. This will not only get your blood pumping, but it will also make the task feel less daunting.

If all else fails, try to turn your task into a game. Give yourself points for every small task you complete and see if you can beat your high score. This way, you’ll be having so much fun, you won’t even realize you’re being productive.

And if all else fails, just remind yourself that by getting things done on a lazy Sunday, you’ll have more time to relax and do nothing on Monday. And who doesn’t love a good lazy Monday?

So, next time you find yourself feeling lazy on a Sunday afternoon, remember these tricks and before you know it, you’ll be crossing off tasks and enjoying that delicious treat you bribed yourself with.
