I have many things to do before Christmas and I do want to do them,yet I don't have the motivation I am needing to actually get them done! *sigh*
Not really sure what the problem is???

I struggle with that a lot all year round!I think the problem is feeling overwhelmed….. then we just "shut off".
Last year at Christmas it was BAD! ( This year, I am ok… Need to start decorating, but need to do a bigger , more pressing project first, so working on that this week)
I made a list…detailed… right down to the most minor little details. Every day I decided on the must-do's….and added 3 more things that I should do, but if I didn't get to them, it was ok...
It helped me to see it all in writing… I loved crossing things off. ( which is why I added even the little things… feel more accomplished that way!)
There is so much "extra" to do in December. It's daunting!
Will pray for your motivation and productivity!

I think you hit the nail on the head. I do feel overwhelmed. I love crossing things off a list too!  Thanks so much for your prayers, ladies!  |

I feel the same exact way. The kids totally decorated the entire tree. I am just completely exhausted and not motivated.

The Holidays are tough, especially ifyou lost loved ones...eeverything is so commercial. The pressures are outrageous, it's not the "reason for the season" anymore. Motivation can be a rare commodity.
