Find you inner motivation
What motivates you? It is one of the most difficult questions, we usually only get asked at job interviews. The common answer is: money, a promotion, perspectives to grow within the enterprise – to summarise it, the opportunity to develop ourselves or our budget, or both.
What helps me to motivate myself and avoid an unproductive day is to focus on a task I really enjoy and finish it. Once something has been accomplished it is usually easier to start working on not so exciting things. If you have troubles focusing on something, start with easy and monotonous tasks to get your mind in working mood.
However, work is not the only place where motivation is important.
Doing sports for example requires a lot of motivation when getting started. How many times this week have you promised yourself this week to go for a run or hit the gym after work? And what happens if we cannot meet over own expectations? We feel frustrated, out of control and might even get angry with ourselves.
