I keep myself motivated by reviewing my short-term goals and planning for the next step.

I set the main goals for myself and my team, and together we run towards them in every possible way.
Another method: small rewards for oneself for completed work.

I have never dealt with personal motivation.
Books and movies.
If all the goals are not achieved, then you need to move on.
I just try to be better every day than yesterday.
I learn a lot every day and improve myself. So my work becomes easier.
@dzaitzow For example, I learn to manage CRM like Zoho or Microsoft Dynamics for clients who want to connect their website with the CRM. The same for CMS WordPress, Drupal. I learn to use it and now I can create a self-hosted CMS, configure it myself, add custom content with the CMS tools and custom extensions developed by myself.
Launching soon!

I think about the future result and about the feedback from my clients. It gives me motivation to work.

I focus on taking daily incremental steps rather than thinking about the big picture. I rarely review my bigger goals since I drive my motivation with curiosity.

not wanting to be broke again. there was a time in my life where i wasn't sure if at the grocery checkout if my card would go through or not. that feeling of shame and embarrassment sticks with me.
Breaking down tasks into manageable pieces and setting clear goals helps a lot.

Discipline ;) But also just having a positive mindset help A LOT

Craft a vision for the future and then see every day as you walking the path to it. Every day that you aren’t motivated is you getting farther from it by walking off your path. If that doesn’t scare you then you need a new goal for the future. A good goal gets you away from something you hate and towards something you love. You should feel like the mouse in that one study where a mouse is in a tube with a piece of cheese at one exit and a cat at the other. A balance of fear and love will motivate you the hardest. At least this is what I found works best for me :)
I think of myself stuck in the same day job for years to come. Gets me moving when I'm procrastinating! 😅
Not much poetry in the words. Make money and pay the bills.

2 points. Firstly, I focus on taking small steps everyday. Secondly, I try to avoid a perfectionist attitude, and focus on doing the best that I can. This stops me from fretting over feeling like I'm not doing enough and helps beats procrastination.
