im currently struggling with having any motivation to do any work. During my internship, at least i was getting paid, and there was the pressure of not wanting to cheat the company of their time, but now, i just can't find any motivation to do any productive work...

i googled my problem, and it turns out that i just need to be more intentional with my time. meaning that i set a target/ goal, and then reward myself after each completion of it! so maybe i will set the target that every time i finish a sub-section of my dissertation, i get to either listen to 2 favourite songs/ watch an episode on tv/ read a book chapter! 

really really hope this works, and hope that it helps me to kickstart reading again! so many half-read books on my shelf which are crying out to me to be read! i've also got to think about what reading material i would like to use if i were to really give a shot at this mentoring-thing... (:
