Motivation is what keeps us going. Motivation is what makes you doing things. Motivation is what keeps you in a job. A Zig Ziglar said, People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing. So that's why we recommended daily.
He's right. You need your daily motivation. You need to find it. You need to focus on what you have to do and be motivated. Motivation is not something that is growing inside you. But mind if you love what you do, it will be much easier to motivate yourself.
People often say to me, you are so lucky because your job is so creative and you just grow and people pay for it and we envy you so much. It's so easy for you to find your motivation. No, it's not. I am pushing myself. A lot of times I don't want to work. A lot of times I just want to finish this job because there is a new one coming I'm more excited about that.
I am a human. But I have to finish my project because I like to believe a life and I like to get paid. So I find my motivation. What I do is that I make myself remember why I started it. What was my main goal? Why did I start this?
Why am I a freelancer? Why it is good to be a freelancer? That helps me. You remember we were talking about the values of life? Yeah, I remind myself, this is why am I here. This is why my creative I am a freelancer.
And I have to keep it up, and it's great. And that motivates me every day. Also, what motivates me a lot is enjoying the moments of success. I have my little celebration. When a big project is finished and I get paid, I do my little happy dance, or I go out and take my wife for dinner. These are great things.
Enjoy life and enjoy the moment of success. Have some rest. Motivation is very important find it in you. Also if you feel you cannot motivate yourself if you feel burned out, if you feel that life is overpowering you do again a reality check. Is freelancing really for you? Is this really what you want to find the answer yourself
