I agree with Michelle below. don't force the motivation... I do encourage you to attempt to work through this slump, though. Every day is a struggle for me because I would often rather do anything and everything except write a post! I just have to work through it and eventually, I do feel better for having written it. Sometimes it is the anxiety of writing it that produces the lack of motivation—at least for me.

Best wishes,

Hang in there, most people don't have the motivation to go to work after an awesome weekend but they know the consequences if they don't show. You have to think of this as your business and that there will be consequences if you don't produce. Take baby steps to get back into action, maybe 1 or 2 hours a day then after week make it a little bit longer. I wish you all the best.

Hi Jessica, as someone whose been through this and made it work, the key is really seeking out that niche you are passionate about and knowing that WA will show you how to make it successful.

It takes time, but that passion is what carries people through that initial doubtful stage of things and into seeing what this business can truly bring.

I stuck through with this (after making so many mistakes) and it now allows me to do this full time.

I'm a firm believer in 'following the path of least resistance' When I have been where you are in regard to motivational 'lack' I just go with it. The more I 'try ' and find it, the less I'm likely to regain it. So, I do the things that have drawn me away. I don't put a time limit on it, I just know in my mind that it will return and it does.
All that being said, sometimes we have to dig deep and grind it out using all the 'carrots' we can find to work towards.

Hi Jessica...there's a lot to learn and do when we arrive here. Sometimes with all of the other things happening in our lives we can hit overload and overwhelm while doing the training. I know I did. I have had a lot going on behind the scenes in my life since I arrived here. But I still get in here and take some kind of action daily.

I suggest taking your time with the training and working on at least one WA task each day related to your website. Then go do something non-WA that you enjoy, like take a walk. You'll come back refreshed and with a fresh set of eyes to look at your website.

Blessings! :)

Hi, I just put a blog up yesterday that may interest you.

One of the things that keeps me motivated is being helpful to others.

Spending time on the WA network just encouraging and helping others will always inspire new ideas for writing content.

You can do this.

Your greatest victories are still ahead of you.

All the best and never give up

Maybe it's just human nature but to get me motivated there has to be a reason I get motivated like what's in it for me?. I don't mean this in a spoiled kid fashion but I think everyone thinks it.
Am I being correct or just acting like a brat?

Take a break! A little rest will help you with both projects. Seems to me you reached a point of burnout. Simply step away for a break from all influences if nothing else just for a couple days. This will allow you to be more productive in all areas...just my 2 cents.

Good luck, I am sure you will be fine!

I wrote an article on my website about motivation.
We have all been there. Different things work for different people.
What has worked for me:
Writing out every goal I have; short and long term
Setting 3 short term goals for the day
Getting a cup of coffee!
Cut yourself some slack
Journal about your mental block

I bet some really good advice will start rolling in.
Best to you,
Barb
