As Newton has explained, the hardest part of getting moving is getting started (Look! I learned at least one thing in physics!). Here are four ways to beat inertia:
1. Give it five minutes. If you’re not into it at the end of five minutes, stop!
2. Go outside. The fresh air helps us get motivated.
3. Get childish. What did you do at recess? Try that. Hopscotch? Tag? Handball? Grab a couple friends for kickball or baseball or football.
4. Use bribery. Promise yourself a hot bath or a nap or an extra episode of that show. (Note: food bribes are not the best choice.)
Go play.
