Over the last couple of years I have experienced a creeping laziness. To the point now where I just can't be arsed.
Can't be arsed with getting up on time so always chucking on yesterday's clothes and heading to work late.
Can't be arsed with work politics or people complaining, totally lost interest in standing out as a good worker.
Can't be arsed making my lunch so just buy crap but dont actually enjoy it. Certainly can't be arsed to exercise!
No hobbies,I like cars but wont have a dream car or anything I particularly like so not fussed or excited about that. In fact buying one will be more of a chore when the time comes.
I'm amazed when I see people with much, much more challenging lives than me and they manage to keep a sense of motivation and positivity.
Someone please give me a kick up the arse or tell me if you've managed to re motivate yourself out of a rut and how!

I am coming up 37 soon so wondered if it's just a rut before some kind of realisation that I need to buck my ideas up because I'm not in my 20s any more and need to look after myself better!
I feel like giving myself a kick is similar to rolling a boulder in that once it's moving it will gather momentum but it's that initial push that's eluding me

I did wonder but one of the symptoms is the loss of body hair, but I am still blessed with an abundance of that.

Thank you all for your input, some food for thought there. (Literally). My 37th is coming up soon so I have set myself a target to be in far better physical shape than I was when I turned 30, primarily through cutting out snacks and doing more exercise. I hope this gives me a bit more energy and leads onto further motivation.
