Her statement made me think about some […]

5 self asking question which help to motivate ourselves
In my previous post, I listed how to tackle bad mood. One of them is recognizing the cause of it (writing my thought down). So, below is a short list of questions which help me to find out the cause. 1. Do I expect too much? 2. Do I enjoy what I’m doing? 3. Do I need it or do I want it? 4. Do I worry about the outcome? 5. Have I really done anything to achieve it?
