It’s fair to say there are many of us that are guilty of having something of a lazy approach to life. We like chilling, but it’s not really good for us.

Remind Yourself Of Your Laziness
If you want to change your lazy lifestyle, then you need to keep reminding yourself to snap out of it. One idea I really like is placing notes around your computer/TV/desk reminding you that you’re lazy. All you have to do is print out some pieces of paper with ‘GET UP’ or ‘STOP BEING LAZY’ etc. written on them. It may seem a little bit harsh, but it will help remind yourself constantly and encourage you to get up and do something. Likewise, you can always set reminders on your phone to tell you to be more active. Both ideas will work, and will help you go outside and see there’s more to life than you think.
Track Your Steps
A very simple tip to help you change your lazy lifestyle is to start tracking how many steps you take every day. iPhones come with a step counter, and I think some other phones have them as well. If not, you can always buy one to clip onto your belt or bag as you walk. By tracking your steps, you encourage yourself to go out and walk places. If you keep looking at your app and seeing that you’ve only taken a few steps, it will make you feel bad and get you up and out!
Motivate Yourself With Fitness Fashion
The hardest part of changing your lifestyle and becoming more active is staying motivated. I always think it’s easier to stay motivated when you can call upon something you love. If you love fashion and want to get fit for summer, then it’s a match made in heaven. You can go out and buy yourself loads of cool clothes that fit the fitness fashion trend. Now, you’ll be way more motivated to go out running or to do some exercise as you want to wear your new swanky clothes. It may sound strange, but you’ll be surprised at how much this can help you stay motivated and kick your lazy habits.
Find Something You’re Passionate About
A really easy way to be more active and escape your lazy lifestyle is to find something you’re passionate about that leads you outdoors. This could be something simple like gardening, walking, running, or even a sport you might get into! It doesn’t matter what this passion is, the important thing is that it encourages you to go outside and be active. When you love doing something, you’ll look for any excuse to go out and do it, which helps you stop being lazy.
With these tips, you can change your lifestyle and start being more active. Not only will this make you more healthy, but it will also provide you with fun times too!
