Motivation - how do you get to it?

Published by flit under ~Challenges Edit This

I am so not motivated.So, judging from the comments in response to yesterday’s post, I am far from the only one that has a problem getting motivated.

And it’s clear that one of our primary motivators are due dates and deadlines - and, as melissan mentioned, some of us slackers need “need deadlines that have consequences if I don’t finish” (She didn’t call us slackers though; that’s all me).

I think that’s the difference between some o’ us and Stephanie, who mentioned setting her own deadlines in her comment. Imagine that! 

I do that … all the time… but then I don’t actually meet my self-imposed deadlines… or at least, not often enough to write home about. *sigh*

Okay … so …. OTHER than deadlines and due dates (with consequences) …what else works? Or might work?  Let’s brainstorm, shall we?
