I feel really unmotivated and am really behind in school work
Hey, when schoolwork piles up, knowing where to begin can feel like half the battle 💛
You could write down what needs doing, pick the most urgent task, then break it into tiny steps like reading one section or answering a few questions.
Try working for 25 minutes and taking a 5-minute break, or change the timings to suit you.
Putting your phone in another room and clearing your workspace could also make focusing easier.
A loose daily routine can make everything feel less chaotic, and celebrating each small win may help you build momentum ✨
If you’re stuck or unsure what to prioritise, you could ask a teacher, friend, or a parent or trusted adult for help.
Getting enough sleep, eating well and taking breaks can support your energy too.
If feeling unmotivated is affecting your everyday life, or it comes with low mood or anxiety, speak to a doctor for more personalised advice.
Take it one small step at a time 🫶
