Great point. I’ve found that when I’m surrounded by mountains to climb, it’s much easier to get motivated to climb even the smallest hill and that leads me to find the motivation for next highest one. Then on to the mountains!

If you find a way to motivate yourself- you can truly consider that the half of the task is done. However, it is usually so difficult to do. I always fight with my laziness before doing some difficult task.

I agree with the being accountable to someone part. But a strong force to get things done is to start moving and that creates its own momentum. It doesn’t have to be on the desired task, but it could start in a different field could eventually get one back to task on hand.

Like writing new blog post that has been procrastinated, so starting to wash dishes may lead to putting in some laundry which lead to one actually sit and write out a post. Start doing something somewhere.

Motivation does require inspiration – and sleep! It is difficult to be creative when one is fatigued. Unless you are writing humor, being tired just makes the sentences run on and on without coherence.

One does need the discipline to push ahead every day though. Glad to hear I am not the only one wrestling with this.

Thanks!

To feel envy – in a positive way somehow can be a strong whip to get me moving. Making communication with people that have the same interest and goals can also keep my motivation alive and not to give up so easily. Everything you wrote in this post so makes sense and applicable, thank’s for sharing this.
By the way I’m new here.. nice to know you

Great piece!

Some difficulties surrounding writing or blogging for a living is that to do this well frequently requires a lot of time alone concentrating. And that is just plain tiring!! Too much being alone and tired can send one over the proverbial edge.

I think the ‘make it fun’ part has got to be central to mental survival in this gig.

Thanks!

If we connect our goal and our love to family. Any pain we feel will gone and we will keep doing it.

For some of us who did online business will feel that online business is full of stress. especially when dealing with web hosting trouble. It could be more stress if the customer service response our message slow. But we know we will get something that can make our family have better living, then we still doing it.

Hi Ray,

Thank you for sharing. Tip number 3 works best for me. Focusing on the rewards or the end goal keeps me motivated. Number 2 also works for me but I know one person who cannot multi-task, my husband. He cannot do two things at once and he’s more effective doing one stuff at a time.
