    First of all, acknowledge that you have a lack of motivation. It is important not to try to fool yourself. To start improving your motivation, decrease your screen time, increase your sleep, add some positive self-talk, and try keeping a journal where you can be very honest with yourself and track your improvement.

    This one is more difficult because motivation needs to come with within. But you can make some 'tools' available like a good book, an app, and just plain encouragement, interest, and love. Give them some space and don't get in their face.

    Be sure to get enough rest and eat a healthy diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and grains. Avoid stimulants because they can make you crash! Add some exercise to your daily routine—either fresh air walks or a gym workout.

    You can improve your mindset by visualizing yourself accomplishing things you want to do. Spend some time with meditation, relaxation, and positive self-thoughts. Leave a note for yourself on your bathroom mirror or on your refrigerator with an encouraging thought. Get a motivation app for your phone.
