How's your motivation today? I seemed to have lost mine. Any ideas on how I get it back?

Asked by Jude (32198points) August 23rd, 2010

Or, I could just try to pull some motivation “out of my ass”.

I’ll be sure to wash said motivation first, though.

Surprisingly, for a Monday, my motivation is right on track. And you, missy, never called.

Why don’t you just enjoy being unmotivated. You don’t always have to be productive.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

Intense paranoia of failure if you don’t get your motherf**king a** in gear right now, dammit!

At least, that’s what’s working for me.

@tinyfaery I have stuff that I should be doing.

But, really, I’d rather eat cornflakes, watch t.v. and masturbate.

tinyfaery's avatar

Should is a label you place on something. If it’s not a must than it can’t be that important.

Jude's avatar

@tinyfaery it all swings back to depression/feeling overwhelmed, my dear.

@jjmah So your choice is be productive or masturbate? That’s not even a real choice – masturbate, hands down! well, probably not hands down, that seems like really awkward masturbation.

Mine is up, up, up…planning a road trip with a friend!

It’s been funky on & off the last 6 months, slow work, and kinda bored, but fortunetly not in any dire straights.
BUT… nothing like mapping an adventure to swing into high gear for me!

Dora the explorer is at her finest when she has an adventure on the horizon! lol

@papayalily Ha! That’s a Kids in the Hall reference. It’s actually “eat corn chips”..

@jjmah Oh, I didn’t know that. Although, I stick with what I said.

tinyfaery's avatar

Sometimes you just need to sit with yourself awhile and let yourself feel. Constant distraction from what troubles you does nothing to ease what’s actually bothering you.

Don’t force motivation. Let your mind be at rest for a while, it might need to be refreshed.

I have lost mine as well. I started out all gung ho this morning, and then it fizzled.

CMaz's avatar

I was dragging a bit today.
Then I saw @Simone_De_Beauvoir ‘s picture.

They do it to me every time. ;-)

I’m not motivated, thankfully all that awaits me now is a good night of sex and sleep so i don’t need to be! ^^

Jude's avatar

So, I’m going to get out of my jim-jams and shower.

Found a piece of my motivation (it was under the sofa cushion).

BoBo1946's avatar

@jjmah ummm…sofa cushion…my minds is traveling fast and came up with nota!

I lost mine once and found it in the refrigerator; look there.

I paint my nails all nice. For some reason that gets me going. Just a little bit of pampering.
