Lack of Motivation

The first Step is to not wait around but inspire yourself. For example, you don't want to go to the gym because you're tired after work.

When people Lose Motivation, they often wait for the Inspiration to come back to them. So they wait and wait but no Inspiration comes. But let's look at it in a different way. Instead of wainting for inspiration to come to you, try to inspire ourselves.

Now, let's come back to use our earlier example: if you wanted motivation to go the gym, ask to yourself these 2 simple questions:

1. Why do I need to do this?
2. What are the rewards?

The second Step is to encourage not discourage. Sometimes, we threaten and say harsh things to ourselves because we think that it'll motivate us. Now, this might work for some people but, usually, it's not effective. I mean, who likes being told what to do?

So instead, think of it like you're trying to persuade a child to go over the finish line. Rather than listening to threats and harsh criticism that make the child feel horrible even after he's over the finish line. The child would be more motivated to finish the race and feel much more accomplished with encouragement.

Encouragement not only makes you more motivated but also makes accomplishing the task more satisfying.

1. Identify what is causing your Lack of Motivation.
2. Don't wait for Inspiration, instead enable yourself by finding your own inspiration.
3. Don't discourage yourself, instead of encourage.

We all Lose Motivation sometimes, and it's easy to fall into a temporary slump.

If you ever feel like you lack of motivation again, dig deep and find the reasons to do what you need to do.
