I just try to except that it will be like you described. I know the feeling all to well. By not stressing over it chances are way higher I’ll come around doing at least something.

It’s a vicious cycle: if you try every day to do something but never actually do it, you unconsciousness will learn to not do the thing. You haven’t done it the last 30 times, why this time?

Instead, accept that the way you are trying or the goals you have set won’t work for you. Change your goals, make them smaller. Instead of “I’ll clean my entire room today”, which is a grueling task, the goal could be: every time I walk into the kitchen, I’ll take one thing with me, that belongs in the kitchen.

Your goals should not be cleaning everything, your goal should be to find a way that makes it easy for you to start.

accept that your motivation system works differently and don’t be angry at yourself.

Just my two cents. Stay strong and accept yourself

Good to know I’m not the only one
