Dog days of summer

I'm struggle to find motivation at work during these hot summer days. It seems that every time I look on social media I see friends vacationing, at the pool, and doing anything BUT working. How do you push through the summer months and find motivation?!

I'm with you, girl! It seems like lately, the weekends are so, so short and the weeks are dragging. I unfortunately don't have Summer Fridays either - but I truly think that helps with motivation during the summer.

I try to keep my mind on the positives in my life; such as having a good job to go to every day with challenging work where I make a difference. Focusing on the positives can help overcome the envy you feel for others. When the doldrums hit, try to end every day with a to do list for the following day. That way, you can start your day with your priorities and goals already defined. Read positive articles and blogs that keep you upbeat and motivated. Make time to do something you find fun and entertaining so that you aren't feeling left out, whether it's playing a sport, watching a movie, or taking a candle-lit bubble bath.
