From the author: published on “Work-work go to Fedot, from Fedot to Yakov, from Yakov to everyone...”. Unfortunately, this sentence does not work in cases where we want to sit at home and be lazy. It would seem that an adult should be distinguished by the ability to self-organize and willpower, but where to get them in such huge quantities? There are some things that need to be done through “I don’t want”, and professional activity is one of them. So, how to get ready for work? Relax! It sounds paradoxical, but the fact remains: the hardest work is given to those who never rest. Have you ever wondered why the human body needs rest? At this time, the organ systems operate in an “economical” mode: strength and energy balance are restored, and everything returns to normal. As an illustration, we can give the example of food, after eating which your body receives a new portion of nutrients. If you are left without food, then you will survive for some time on internal reserves, but sooner or later they will have to be replenished. It’s the same with rest: you can exist without it for some time, but you need a break, otherwise you won’t have the strength to work. Expand your responsibilities Newness is another source of energy and vitality that helps you get ready for work. Agree, it’s one thing when you have to do something monotonous and has long set your teeth on edge, and quite another to add a touch of variety to your work life. For example, you are a secretary. Your responsibilities include managing paperwork, answering phone calls, greeting visitors and preparing drinks for them. Sounds a bit boring, doesn't it? Try diluting your usual actions with some unusual responsibilities! In your free time from your main responsibilities, you can engage in sales - this will also increase your salary. Maybe you will find yourself in this and start going to work as if it were a holiday? Find meaning in your work “How is it?” - you ask. And it's very simple! Psychologists' studies have shown that a person works much more efficiently and with more enthusiasm when he understands who and what benefits his activities bring. In modern society, there is such a phenomenon as “desocialization of labor.” Simply put, it seems to you that your work is an empty and meaningless shuffling of pieces of paper. Whether it's the profession of a firefighter! This is how humans are designed, that the need for meaning is as important as the need for love or security. Therefore, do not be lazy and think about who, thanks to your work, you are doing something good for? Get rid of overwhelming problems Very often, reluctance to work and lack of strength are associated not with fatigue or natural laziness, but with an accumulated heap of difficulties. It’s as if an unknown animal is constantly gnawing on you from the inside, and when you think that it’s time to go to work, something breaks inside? Then it is most likely that you are avoiding something related to your professional activity. Perhaps it's a report that's been due to your boss a long time ago, and you don't want to meet his gaze? Or a prolonged quarrel with a colleague that makes you want to disappear from your workplace? In any case, in order to get rid of the negativity that you associate with work, you need to solve all these problems. Change your job Well, if none of the above methods help, then maybe it’s time to change your job? The method, of course, is radical, but it is no coincidence that career development experts advise changing your organization and position at least once every five years. This is due to the fact that sooner or later everything gets boring, and this monotony begins to suck all the juice out of you. In such a situation, you stop functioning at full capacity, it upsets you, and it becomes a vicious circle. Who else besides you can break it? If your job looks like hard labor, then it shouldn’t be that way! It is very important to remember that professional?
