    Nothing!

    Although since my post this morning I have painted my toenails, and my nails, ordered some products, slapped on more make up and feel better!

    Depends what it is. I often need deadlines to work towards, leaving stuff to the last minute stresses me but i do need to have a clear deadline . I like lists &ticking stuff off so making a list is a good motivator for me. And what others think motivates me too.

    House wise, people call in all the time unexpectedly so try and do jobs ASAP in ghe mornings and keep on top of it....in theory!

    Weightloss wise, I'm trying to find motivation for that.

    Appart from family life I'm not motivated for much tbh, I've never been career orientated. Now I'm motivated to keep the house and kids as I see h working so hard for us. Does that make me sound shallow, I hope not?

    Im fussy & like things to be a certain way. I cant relax in a dirty or messy house. (I actually think I have a bit of a problem with this!)

    I'll feel so much better for wearing make up that the 5/10 mins it takes is really worth it.

    I generally have a get up & go attitude & thinking 'Oh I need to do that...' As soon as I think that about something I just do it ie indoor windows etc.

    Im an organised person & a planner ie I make enough dinner for 2 night plus 2 days worth of lunches at once, those kind of things.

    What motivates me to do housework is I can't relax if its messy, I need to get it done.

    What motivates me to put make up on and my hair is my reflection.

    What motivates me to lose weight is my health and also my desire to wear nicer clothes!

    What motivates me to go to baby groups or other social events is the need to get out the house.

    I'm not motivated by money especially which is why I've failed at nearly all my sales jobs. I'm not motivated at the moment to look for a job, I just don't feel ready yet confidence and leaving C wise. But I have to find that from somewhere... Soon!

    My kids.

    I want them to have a nice home, so I clean it, decorate it nicely.

    I don't want them to be picked on for having a scummy mummy, so make sure I have my face on, nice clean clothes, hair done.

    I want them to have as many experiences as possible, so take them places. If I didn't have my boys, I'd sit on the sofa, and not leave the house for days at a time.

    I am a total list person and work much better under pressure so things like the baby being due in 9 weeks pushes me to get stuff done!!
