So write down your reasons for wanting to make positive changes or pursue particular goals. Read them regularly to yourself to keep them fresh in your mind, and review the progress you are making towards them when you need a mental or emotional boost.
Having a clear sense of PURPOSE and remaining connected with this, can help to get you inspired and energised again.2. Reduce distractions to allow you to focus
