Malaika suggests these motivation techniques to beat laziness

The Monday blues haunt even the best of us, but as real as its impact is, it doesn’t have to overshadow the entire day’s proceedings. No matter how gloomy you are at the start of the week, there’s always a way to overcome it as suggested by Taylor Swift. This week, you’ll want to be like Malaika Arora.

Monday began on an enlightening note for the star as she took to her Instagram Stories to share a video of an exercise she’s been trying her hand at. The video shared a list of Japanese techniques designed to overcome laziness, which Miss Arora said she herself has been “slowly and steadily following”.

Today being a grey sky Monday that’s bound to challenge the strongest of wills, it seems like a better time than any to learn a lesson about motivation from Malaika’s suggested Japanese techniques.

Follow these 6 Japanese techniques to overcome laziness and increase motivation.

1. Ikigai

Now a worldwide trend thanks to the wildly popular book of the same name, Ikigai is the discovery of one’s purpose in life, which makes waking up each morning a moment of excitement.

2. Kaizen

Kaizen in Japanese means continuous improvement. Instead of focusing on the big picture, it focuses on the small steps needed to reach that big picture.

3. The Pomodoro Technique

This is a technique that refers to working in focused, 25-minute intervals, with a 5-minute break between each work segment. It is not to be confused with the Italian tomato-based sauce of the same name, although it will be delicious during those breaks.

4. Hara Hachi Bu

This technique recommends eating until you are almost full, but not completely full. It centers around the concept of mindful consumption at mealtime.

5. Shoshin

Evolved from Zen Buddhism, this concept follows the belief of approaching any task with openness, eagerness to learn, and enthusiasm, just as a beginner would do; even if he is at an advanced level.

6. Wabi Sabi

This concept believes in accepting imperfection and appreciating the beauty of flaws, as life is a transitory state of temporary nature.
