See
difficult activities that you have to do in a larger context of your goals. A
student might see a particularly rough course as a step he needs to take to
graduate and do the things he wants to do. A corporate executive might see the
extended road trip she has to take as part of the job of rallying her troops
around an initiative.
Try
changing your attitude about these things by making them fit the qualities of
who you are at core, Certain techniques can be helpful: Perhaps you can play
soothing music to bring out the quality of peace, work in nature for a sense of
communion or work with others to bring in energy.
You
might make a game of activities you dislike: Try doing the most difficult,
depressing and distasteful task first, then the next-most hated task, and so on,
making each succeeding task a reward for the one that preceded it. Discover what
works for you.
One client discovered that doing what he disliked most
first thing in the morning, to get it over with, made the most difference.
Another that doing a little of the oldest "to do" pile once a day, just after
lunch, was the best solution for her.
