When the weather gets cold and the days become shorter, I sometimes notice my motivation dropping a little. To stay positive and active, I like to spend time on a few hobbies that always lift my mood. Here are my top three that help me stay happy and motivated during the cold months.

  • Reading with a cozy touch
    I have always loved reading, but when it is cold, I make it feel special. I prepare a cup of hot chocolate or tea, wrap myself in a warm blanket, and read a book that makes me feel relaxed. I often choose stories set in sunny or warm places because it helps me forget the cold outside. I also like reading short motivational books or articles that inspire me and keep my mind positive.
  1. Indoor workouts and dance time
    It can be hard to go outside when it is freezing, so I try to stay active indoors. Sometimes I follow simple workout videos or just play my favorite music and dance for a few minutes. I do not worry about doing it perfectly. I just focus on moving and having fun. After that, I feel refreshed, more focused, and full of energy for the rest of the day.

  2. Learning something new
    Winter is a great time to learn new things. I like to try learning a few words in another language, cooking new recipes, or finding creative ideas for my students. It keeps my brain busy and gives me something to enjoy. When I focus on learning, I forget about the cold.

Even though winter can feel long, it is also a good time to take care of ourselves, try new hobbies, and stay positive. If you ever feel unmotivated, try one of these ideas. You may be surprised at how much happiness and warmth you can create right where you are.
