How to Stay Motivated? Share your Ideas.....

8 replies
To do or achieve something, we need motivation. Right?
But have you ever faced lack of motivation? Especially when you are a blogger, motivation is critical for your progress. If you are not motivated, you will write poor content and won't be feel like sharing it with your friends. Same things happen with each and every person no matter from which he/she belongs.

What you guys do to stay motivated? Here is what I do myself:

  • I watch true story based movies such as Rocky, Invictus, Rudy, Unbroken etc
  • I read inspirational quotes such as "It always seems impossible till it's Done" by Nelson Mandella.
  • Also I read some success stories and income reports of other Bloggers to stay motivated.


As I am a Blogger too myself. I developed one free Wordpress Plugin to help other Bloggers deal with lack of motivation. This plugin is known as Motivate Me. Feel free to give it a try. Here is it's Official Page

      Setting micro goals and achieving them everyday gives you huge motivation and confidence. It also make you feel that you are progressing

    This is a though one to crack actually. Had huge problems with keeping my motivation up when the results where missing. I made a rule that "emotional decisions" where forbidden. Anything great needs time and if you keep analyzing your shitty situation on a daily basis you might have some problems to stick with whatever plan you made. This and some positive notes on the computer, wall etc changed a lot

    Pump yourself with daily motivational quotes. If you have an instagram account, just follow those motivational quote accounts which gives you daily dosage of success quotes. It will literally make you want to take action rather than waste every minute of your time doing nothing. #justsaying

    Here is my quote of the day:

    THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHO YOU ARE AND WHO YOU WANT TO BE IS WHAT YOU DO

    motivation is bs ..

    if you have to get motivated to do it .. you might be doing the wrong it

    but if you do it ..and become motivated to to it better ..

    i think i have heard from many people ..tim ferris, john carlton, Dan kennedy ..

    that if you are going to write pick the best time for you to write each day.. and sit there and write..even if you write complet and total garbage ..

    96 times out of a hundred in my case full motivation doesn't hit until i'm doing the thing ..

    i've lost 30 pound in a year and slimmed down a lot ..without going to the gym ..even if i go to the gym..it's genrally demotivating but i have changed the way i eat..and i love to cook..but .. many time i don't get motivated to cook something until im chopping up ingredients ..

    so instead of looking for motivational pump ups .. learn your process of becoming motivated .
