How I get things done in times where I don't feel like it [tool]

Submitted by TheGameNavigator t3_z8czw3 in GetMotivated

All of us with no exception deal with this frequently.

And whenever I find myself in these days, I do small changes, that allow me somehow to go around this rut:

  1. I review my most important priorities ( those are the projects that if kept on going, you're fine if the rest were dropped)

For example: My first priority is my YouTube channel. I also learn frequently I workout I meditate

When I find myself in these days, I eathier drop everything else, and focus my reduced energy on the channel.

So the moral of the point: "Desperete times call for desperate measures"

  1. I remind myself of the end line, the arrival point.

It speaks to our inner child these moments, we are naturally attracted to stories that ends up well, let alone if they're ours.

Asking this question will refresh your faith in your abilities.

(I ask this to myself every night in your bed time)

I Do those two, and work on auto pilot, somehow it works and it doesn't take too long till I get back on the chase with full power. . There is no measurement to this, at least for me, sometimes I live that for a day, but other times I live it for a week before I feel the urge again, so be flexible, mainwhile, your goal is still moving forward.

So with that said, the point of this trick is to be strategic.

"If you found yourself weak in the middle of a battle field, turning the power saving mode ON is in your best interest".

Long live heros

Isn't also a big motivator that your income is based on your youtube channel?

For example if you got no profits from it, would you always be so keen on still prioritizing it? Wouldn't your inner child think other things mattered too?

Now it's not hard as it used to be honestly, I mean Am the one who got it moving from 0 subs to 800k after all, if money is what motivate me now, you should wonder what motivated me then when I was at 0 sub? How I dragged myself without the money back then

So its not the money what moves me in general, you have to find a personal reason to such a thing done, cause you will wait years for the money to come, and those people actually give up quit often because they expect it to pay but it takes much longer till getting there.

This is definitely the case for entertaining youtubers, that's not me though ..

I went two years long without subs, but I loved it, still love it, cause I do what I love.

And here is the catch, mixing passion with money is the worst trap people fall into, passion does not pay most times, and I was aware of that fact, that's why until today my main stream of Income isn't YouTube.

I'm a youtuber too, and I hear you. I did it for the love, then the modest income. But in depression, I now feel like it's more of an obligation and I've forgotten the 'love' of it. The artistic process is gone. It feels pointless. I'm trying to get back to the way I felt when I started, when I was eager and full of inspiration and action.

Not sure. Yeah I think that's part of it. Mostly lack of self confidence perhaps. Logically I know I can do it and I know I'm good at what I do. But emotionally, I'm just wiped and lost
