motivate myself

I am finding recently that I just can’t push myself to do anything. I get up in the morning and have to force myself to go to work, then when I come home its all I can do to clean up.
I can’t seem to motivate myself to do anything at all. Even paying bills and things on time feels like a chore. I find myself trying to come up with reasons to call in sick to work just cos its such hard work to get up off my ass and drive there.
Its not that I’m a lazy person I just can’t find the motivation anymore.
I don’t think that I am depressed because I have been there in the past and it feels different.
I need to get myself out of this rut because there is so much that I want to do with my life but I don’t know how to get moving.
Anyone got any ideas? I really need help.

I have a job. That job is walking distance from where I live. The best part is that I can show up on days when I feel like it. Problem is: I’m not motivated to do it.
I’m 17 at the end of the month and have yet to get my driver’s license. That is because I have to pay for that myself. What is my motivation? Everything seems to be yet I don’t want to do it. I have gone to work but only twice since I started a few weeks ago.
The two times I did go was pretty much because I told people who were important to me i.e. my dad that I was gonna go.
I find that if the plan has genuinely been made, and someone of importance knows about it, then there is some kind of reasonable consequence and in turn a better reason to go to work.
I think that’s why it’s easy for me to be devoted to my school work. I mean, I’m there for a reason, if I don’t try I’m only wasting my own time as well as the teacher’s. The least I could do is reward them for their hard work by putting forth some hard work of my own.
Never-the-less (I’m not sure if that’s one word but oh well) I still need to be motivated… hopefully I can do it.

what happened to that stimulation you had when you were 7? That adventure, that drive. You could run around outdoors for hours, even skipping dinner, without thinking twice. Seems like now the only thing I motivate myself to do is go to work, eat, or go to the bathroom. ”/ unacceptable. So i’m going to find that same ambition and capture it. I’m sick of feeling as thought I’m a glass full to the brim with all of this encouragement, only to dump over and remain empty quicker than imaginable. Yep, it’s time to get up and do something. life’s too short.

hello there. hope all is good – wonder if people do actually read these? Or if this is the bit im supposed to be writing this in … either way im giving it a go – maybe this could help! To put it bluntly my life is a little messed up Possibly not to other people, but certinially to me – afyterall it is my problem. And thats where it lies really – every thing that is wrong in my life is down to me!! Totally!! Im the one that causes the problems and then wonder why it happens to me. I have absloutly no idea how to stop this at all!! Pathetic, shallow and superficial I know but one of my biggest problems is my weight. I weigh about 13 stone and never seem to do any thing about it. I hate my body – yet i love to spend loads of money on cloths, shoes ect to make me feel happier – yet it never dose. I join many gyms – and want to make a hole harted attempt – but its so hard! (Obviulsly!) Some times I even go – run for bout 14 mins then go – im mean why?? wtf??
Other instances and aspects where i deliberatly mess it up – (tho never realising it) my car – taxes, insurances I knew it would end in tears… it did. So many things – i don’t know why I dont listen to myself…. many people have explained what I need to do … but yet I seem unable? Im constantly fucking things up….. any suggestions???

I need to stop making excuses and get my butt to the gym…there are 101 reasons i SHOULD go and none why not. i can never seem to drag myself out once i have gotten home…i keep telling myself if i don’t go i won’t fit into my wedding dress in october…but that doesn’t even work lately ugh!

Seriously, it cant be this hard to motivate yourself, i sit at home all day, go out on the rare occation but even that is pointless sometimes, i just want to bang myself on the head and feel more motivated. I will motivate myself I WILL!

I am going to just choose to be motivated,
I have had enough, I have been unmotivated for at least the last six months, I choose to change now

I am learning that it is keeping myself motivated that is challenging rather than to just motivate myself. I had heard someone say recently to procrastinate is the fear of failure. I am just not ready to fail!!

I learned that my love for movies is also how I keep motivated in my life and career. And motivating others through popular movies has turned into a full time career!

Hm, so this is basically exactly what I need in order to accomplish all my other goals and such. But I don’t know where to get my motivation. It’s so hard for me. A lot of the times when I’m alone at home or something, which is basically alot of my life, I just sit..daydream..watch tv. Because I have no motivation what so ever do get up and freaking do something productive or whatever. I mean, yeah I know. I have one life to live. Life is short. And I can’t just waste my youth away. But that doesn’t even seem enough to motivate me. Or maybe I’m guessing I don’t even come close to the comprehension of how precious time is. Gr. I just waste so much time doing nothing. I mean, when I die or get old or whatever. I want to look back and be completely satisfied with how I lived my life. But so far, I’m not. Sometimes I even feel depressed. And I don’t even have a reason. I guess it’s just because I feel empty and numb a lot of the times. It’s like an unceasing cycle for me. It sucks. Also, I’m always comparing myself to other people and their lives..its even obsessive..and I freaking hate it. I need to stop that. Ugh I need help to motivate myself like no other. blah
