The diary game 9/4/26; From Zero Motivation to Full Productivity.

Dear diary,

Wednesday night the day before today had me wondering where in the world did I get it wrong. I didn’t understand what was happening to me but all I knew was that I had a lot of things to do but I didn’t know where to start and there was no zeal or motivation to work or do anything and I have been like that since Monday night. Today was Thursday.

I had to reachout to my dad and told him my state. He asked me to write out all the things I needed to do and I listed them out. He then asked me to list them out from the easiest to the hardest. I did list them out for him and then he was like todo you trust me? I said yes. He told me to start with cleaning my room first that it was going to help me to the rest of the items.

This was happening around 7pm the previous night. I told him okay and started cleaning my room. I hadn’t cleaned in a long time and it took over an hour plus. In between he checked up on me online and I told him that I am on it. After about almost two hours of cleaning, my room was squeaking clean.

I swept the room, arranged my table, took out the dirty plates and pots. Washed the toilet and bathroom and even mopped the room and balcony. I then changed my bed sheets to white bedsheets. I made a brief video of the room and sent to him like he requested. Then he promised to send me some money to get my duvet from the laundry which he did.

I left that night to get my duvet from the laundry and when I got back, I made food to eat. Just that singular act of cleaning my room made me get into the action mood that lingered for days. The next day which was today had me rushing first thing in the morning to wash my clothes. I have been pilling these clothes for over a month.

I swung into a watching mood and in two hours plus, those basket load of clothes were washed. I couldn’t believe myself. After washing the clothes. I was feeling myself. I breezed into the kitchen to wash the plates and the dishes. And soonest everywhere was squeaking clean. The next thing on my agenda was to make breakfast.

I prepared breakfast of tea, bread and fried egg. I used the food items I had left over. That was the quickest food I could prepare and soonest it was ready. I waltzed back into the room to sit down and enjoy by hardwork. After eating, I took my medications. And then I was still in work mode. The next I did was to take to my blog to make some posts.

My blog was looking empty as I haven’t been making posts except for the contest posts which I managed to make. I already had plenty posts resteemed on my blog which I wanted to write. I went into a writing frenzy. In no time, I used the whole of the afternoon and evening to make posts.

I did contest posts in steem for Nigeria and also some power up post and then my learning challenge post preparations. In the afternoon I was hungry and I had to go buy food from a nearby vendor. I bought Egusi soup which I ate with Eba and went back to my post formatting my posts and I also had some time to read that evening.

For me it was really a productive day comparing to the rut of no work zeal I had been in all week. Later that night I took dinner of custard and bean cake balls. Later it was time to go pick up my clothes from the hangers downstairs.

It was almost 10pm when I remembered that I had washed clothes that day. I rushed downstairs before the lights out by 10pm to get all the clothes that I washed upstairs. They were actually a lot as my hands were full. I felt so relieved by the end of that day. I put up my mosquito net, climb into bed and continued working on my phone.

The lights went out by exactly 10pm. The security men do not even wait for one minute past ten to turn off the generator. There was no power supply. So I stayed back in bed and finished up my business on steemit before retiring for the night. What a productive day, going from zero motivation to full productivity.
