What do you do to get motivated when being NOT - GoFuckYourself.com

i have some non business related stuff to do
its important as hell but will take me forever and is a simple pain in the ass

bad part is.. i can hire nobody to do it for me so...

comparing it to the biz its like spending 2 weeks creating a kickass paysite, design, watermark movies, optimize, tweak, upload the content, test and test everything but in the end everything gets deleted, you have no backup and having to start all over again with time pressure sitting on your back.

how do you motivate yourself?

rather serious replies would be appreciated if there is anything I can do at all...

what really helps me seems to be music. I just start listening to some pleasant music and that just keeps me going. I know what you mean.

That would get him much less motivated, since it's non-business and he wouldn't make money to buy "material items"... if he was working instead of doing the non-business stuff he would make $

Music always works for me

When I'm not motivated, I look around me and see what I have. I see the bills, I see the pets, and I see myself on my ass in the street if I don't keep bringing in the rent money. THAT'S motivation.

If it isn't work related, though, I don't do it much these days. I simply don't have the time.

I throw in Anthony Robbins' CD... even if you don't like him you can't help but get motivated simply by his enthusiasm when he talks

Bro... you said its important as hell. Thats enough.

GO DO IT!

graphicsbytia · 05-27-2004, 01:13 PM

you gotta make it fun somehow.. so make it better than you originally planned..

and the way to get motivated is to do one small thing to start it.. and promise youself you will only do that one small thing and nothing else..

Just one small thing to start.. figure out what that thing is and do it
