How do you get motivated?

    Where do you find your motivation from to make a living, being online or not?
    When all the odds are stacked up against you, how do you manage to keep on going?
    During these difficult times in the world of business when everything keeps going wrong - how do you pick yourself up and carry on?

    I read lifehack and some other websites to help me better focus when I'm feeling unproductive. Mostly I keep motivated from knowing I'll have to get a real job if I don't keep my online activities profitable.

    I think about about the shitty retail job I would have to go back to if i dont make any money, that keeps me pretty motivated

    oh and not geting my car repossesed provides good motivation too

    For me, I remember that time when all I had was close to 0 cash - 0 savings - and I was 5 days away from payday, with a family to feed (toddlers on milk). That was a very scary time for me, and that thought alone pushes me to do more everyday.
