How to “Find” Your Motivation When You’re Feeling Less Than Awesome About Your Business or Art
When you start out as a creative, you’re full of energy and motivation. You probably have a “why” that gets your adrenaline pumping and keeps you focused… at least for a little while.
But inevitably, that energy wanes. The motivation you once had to keep going in the tougher parts of your business is fading, and you might be wondering, how do I recapture that spark?
Well, in this episode, I’m going to walk you through my whole process of rediscovering my motivation to keep going in my photography business and sharing the questions I had to ask and answer for myself as I sorted through this process.
Grab a pen and notebook to write down these questions for later, and let’s get started!
What’s in this episode:
[00:00] Intro
[01:26] Remembering our “why” when we lose our motivation
[04:25] How to transition if your original “why” doesn’t fit anymore
[05:53] How to identify what’s working and what isn’t in our current situation
[09:01] Why it might be time to shake things up if nothing else is working
Tune in to this episode for a little pep talk on rediscovering your motivation as you begin this new year!
