“Mood follows action”. The following is a process to I often use to get out of a funk. I used this method even last week. See if this works for you:

1. On the left column right down how you want to feel “Feeling Caught up”, “Feeling Productive” etc.

2. Now on the right column, for each “Mood” write down 1 to 3 actions you can perform that will help you achieve the mood.

3. Start performing the actions, one at a time. Check off the actions as you complete. Don’t be overwhelmed by your action list or the outcome. Just focus on taking the action and doing it to your best ability.

Evaluate your actions after a day or two. See how you feel. It works for me every time, like magic.

If you end up trying this and if it works for you, can you please come back to this post and let me know. I am trying to incorporate this in my leadership tool bag and it would be good to have some feedback. Thank you!

Wow I really like this technique. Going to try it out today
