    I'm in some debt and I really want to get out of it. So, that is a huge motivation for me.

    Seeing results from your work is a great motivation factor.

    money, good life for family, helping others with your products.

    Here's a secret I use when I am down and demotivated. The best way to get you move forward is to get started. Do something even though you don't feel like it. Soon you will find yourself picking up the momentum. Also enjoy your journey along the way. You don't need to wait to have fun at the destination. Have enough rest and find ways to de-stress.

    I think about improving my future as well as helping my parents when they are older. I want to have enough money to be able to keep them in their home and stay with them and care for them so they don't need to move to a care facility.

    The best motivation I get is from a "big picture" project that overlies all other active sub projects.

    Here's a quick tutorial on how to do this:

    Timeframe: Set a timeframe. Such as 4 months.

    Objectives: Now set some very specific objectives. Such as $50,000 new sales revenue. Or a $5,000 per month recurring revenue. Or a new car.

    Vision: with these objectives further define what your vision 4 months from now looks like. Be very specific about what you expect, what you will be doing, how you will feel and how you will reward yourself after achieving the objectives.

    Strategy: now reverse engineer exactly how you will achieve your vision & the objectives. Build a step by step strategy explaining in detail how you get to the vision.

    Tactics: based on the strategy, create a list of tactics (tasklist) of things you need to do.


    This is what keeps me motivated. Sometimes the task list is daunting, but by seeing your vision and understanding the strategy: it's more than enough to motivate you.

    Feedback from clients is the big thing for me.

    I really love what I do, so to hear clients say that they love what I have done for them, gives me a feeling of pride and that's all the motivation I need :)

    Well, I have a "Special needs" child and 3 other children who I need to support and my lazy wife doesn't do anything except spend my money on eBay.

    My upcoming site is going to funnel 10% into a savings fund for the kids. The rest will be used to help me get fat, lazy, and make mods for Oblivion and other games. haha.
