1. Finding Motivation in the Little Things
Many people have a difficult time finding the motivation to get
things done. The biggest misconception is that motivation will
simply fall from the sky and everything will be swell. Unfortunately,
that's not how the world works. You need to be proactive!
Others wait for something "big" to happen so they will suddenly
have the motivation they need to complete a task or push through
a tough time. When this doesn't happen, they lose their focus and
fall off the task quickly. Instead of waiting for something to come
to you, why not create your own motivation? You can... and it's
easier than you think!
Finding the Little Things to Motivate You
The first thing you need is an environment that is conducive to
healthy motivation. What does this mean? Well, it means that you
need a clutter-free workspace, a comfortable chair at your desk,
and a computer monitor at a comfortable height. Ergonomics is
very important when designing the area where you will be
working. These little things can zap you of your motivation in a
real hurry. After all, how can you be motivated if you have a sore
neck and back all the time? You'll be too busy worrying about
carpal tunnel or back spasms than anything else!
FINDING MOTIVATION IN
THE LITTLE THINGS

2. Ask yourself honestly: "How much would my attitude change if I
worked in a place that I actually liked to spend time in?"
The moment you work in an environment that is congruent with
your needs, you'll nearly instantly find the motivation to get started
and follow through.
Identifying Your Motivational Factors
Everyone has different motivational factors so what works for your
colleagues may not work for you. Instead, determine the unique
things that excite and motivate you. Perhaps you can reward
yourself with your favorite snack after completing an important
task, or maybe you can have a friendly competition with your
colleagues. Whatever it is, give yourself something to work
towards!
You'll find more motivation by sprinkling mini-rewards throughout
your day for each little task you check off your to-do list. When
you keep your motivational factors simple, you'll keep the
pressure off and get more done in less time.
How to Find Motivation on the Computer
Even your computer can be a source of motivational energy.
Motivational desktop wallpapers can help you stay focused while
you work. These desktop wallpapers are free downloads that give
you motivation at your fingertips. When you think about how often
you see your desktop, it makes sense to put some inspiring
thoughts and images there. When you are ready to throw in the
towel, just take a quick look at your desktop and just might
find the inspiration you need to persevere through!
There are plenty of motivational images and quotes, so there's no
shortage of motivation right on your desktop. You can refresh your
desktop wallpaper every day, week, or month as you see fit.
