Hi XeutonMojukai,

I am still learning but would like to offer my own experience on getting motivated.

Firstly, never think of anything that you wanted to do as work, because work is always subconsciously associated with hardship, something you don't like but have to do.

Currently my source of motivation comes from my gf!

Set goals and target that you love, get excited and looking forward to!

For example, I have plan and written down the things I wanted to do with my gf, and these things really makes me excited and looking forward to them. One of the goal is that I am going with her to Malaysia for holiday coming December!

And then i work out the steps i needed to achieve those things, especially the monetary side, then this is the target i am working towards. For example, I need $1000 to go for the Malaysia tour. So if I use success university as example, I need to recruit about 20 students to earn $1000.

I did not set $1000 as my goal, because that is not the thing that I am excited and looking forward to. $1000 is just the final step to my Malaysia tour. And I did not set recruiting 20 students as my goal also! To me, these are just steps towards my goal!

All these while, I am focusing on my tour, and I actually get more excited while doing those "works" as i know I am getting nearer to my tour every time I complete 1 of the step.

So how about thinking why are you doing those "work" that you are doing now? Focus on the end results, write it down and look at it everyday, you always get motivated by things that you love to do!

Hopes this can help you a bit!

Cheers!

Albert Lee
