Gotta get my stuff done…
One of those videos videos where I’m sitting there saying “yep, uh-huh, yeah, I know how that goes…”. Why is it so hard to get motivation sometimes?

Haha, really cool video and so much corresponds to my mood sometimes. I find so many other things when I don’t want to do one particular… it almost makes me wonder how come there are times when I cannot think of anything to do.
“Why is it so hard to get motivation sometimes?” - well motivation doesn’t come with the thought “I HAVE to do this” it comes much faster and effective with the thought “I WANT to do this”, that’s it.

If you could find the secret to motivation, you’d be a very rich men. It’s hard to find something that will sustain you for a long period of time. I think the more reasonable approach is to continually seek new motivations while hanging on to the old ones. And a little stubbornness doesn’t hurt.

Lindsay,
You certainly arent alone in the struggle to locate motivation.
I find it helps to get clear with your goals and make them so emotionally exciting that you quickly find your mind making excuses for the motivation that comes into your life.
If however the job ahead is boring and unexciting, well you can hardly blame yourself for feeling uninspired and unmotivated.
Hope this helps

I agree, is is not easy to motivate yourself to start working especially if the job is boring. Usually I find hundreds of worthless things to do instead of concentrating on the work. I do not know what should I change to be able to concentrate on one activity.
