There is no smoke without fire. The feeling “I am nothingness” does not arise out of the blue. It is often the result of inaction, which leads to apathy, dissatisfaction in life and low self-esteem.
Here are some proven ways to deal with inaction and take your life to the next level:
Prioritize …
… and write them down. It is important to keep the priorities in front of your eyes in order to remind yourself why and why you need to perform this or that action. If something is important to you, then it's time to reinforce the importance with constructive action! Download a beautiful background from the Internet and print 3 main priorities in life on it. Use your personal creativity to style your print as a poster. I believe you can do it!
2. Get started
Often the main reason for groundless postponement is the speculation of the task in all its possible-impossible guises. It also includes endless ineffectual planning - so pleasant, so justifiable, but at the same time tirelessly multiplying the practical results by zero.
The very beginning gives a healthy wings to the human soul. Having made an effort of will, proceed to the task - and you will notice that you have to fend off the flying stream of ideas. Appetite comes with eating!
3. Alternate intense task work and rest
Research in neuropsychology shows that 20 minutes of intense, concentrated work is much more effective than a couple of hours of work without the utmost involvement in the task.
Conscious concentration certainly requires energizing. The very anticipation of a break, during which you can deservedly relax without feeling guilty, is incredibly motivating!
Golden Rule: 20/5 … Work on the task for 20 minutes, rest for 5 minutes (get up from the computer, look out the window). After three work runs, take a long 20-minute break. And you will see that you can do much more!
4. Determine “your” time of day
Studies of the biological rhythm of a person, carried out in 2017, confirm that each of us has individual internal "clocks" that control the physiological processes of our body. This “clock” is ticking for each of us in our own way. It is for this reason that the advice “wake up at 4 am and you will be happy” has every chance of NOT working!
Determine what rhythm of your life is. It's just about the lark owls. Make the most of your “neuroactive” time! Whenever possible, complete tasks during the hours when your brain is at its most active. So it will be easier for you to cope with tasks - and how much energy, time and satisfaction the completed result will give you!
5. Do not strive to fulfill completely - strive to fulfill
Psychologists of the modern world are not in vain making noise about perfectionism. The search for perfection is the most powerful anti-technique of our mind. The perfectionist skillfully looks for excuses not to start work and thus subconsciously exacerbates his feelings of guilt and dissatisfaction with the present. Perfectionists are unhappy people!
Performing tasks one after another, you will pump your ability to solve them. Only practical practice, pardon the tufting, can give us the ability to cope better and better - much more reliable than pondering the best ways, incessant planning and finding the perfect time, the perfect place and the perfect combination of stars in the skies.
6. Remind yourself often of the pleasure it brings to completion
In moments of torment, try to revive in your memory the joy that you felt, as soon as you put an end to a long, viscous, viscous business. Try comparisons for the sake of reminding yourself of the feeling of discomfort, exhaustion and stagnation in those moments when your mind went all out to come up with excuses and you put off burning things for the tenth time.

Dream As A Brake On Action
Wait, but what about - "Dream, set big goals for yourself?" Isn't a dream a prototype of a goal? No. Often a dream is a fantasy world where a person hides in order not to take responsibility for his life today. This allows you to merge all the energy into plans and dreams, living in the illusion that something is happening.
Rule 13. Only Deeds Are Rewarded, Or Take Action
Success is 10% inspiration and 90% labor. Success in life is not realized without perseverance, it is important to actively act and go towards the intended goal. All mental work (visualization, affirmation, etc.) are important aspects on the way to the desired goal, but in general should not take more than 10% of a person's time, the remaining 90% are actions.
