When I am feeling frustrated and stuck, it is a big sign that I am losing faith in what I am doing. If I don't trust myself in what I am doing. I lose motivation, and that is the worst feeling. That's the worst feeling for anyone.

Working in a creative environment, you are always expected to deliver spectacle and sparkle, even though you feel like a rock. Creativity does not fall from the sky, you can work on it and find mechanism that jog your mind to put different concepts together to make things interesting. This is all nothing and not worthwhile if you have lost your motivation. In achieving your goals in your life, you need to have discipline, strong will and grit.

Here are some 10 Great Advice to Keep You Motivated.


1. Write down your goals. When you are not performing at your best. Your mind goes into self sabotage. It will fill you with fear and amnesia. You won't remember why and how you git yourself in the particular incident and anger will cloud your judgement. Writing down you goals reminds you why you are making your sacrifices and where the hell you are going. This prevent distractions putting the breaks on your life goals

2. Evernote your ideas. Think your ideas, write them down then save them. I spent years writing my goals, ideas, concepts, people I have met eat on note pads, books, my phone and then not having them all together in one place so I could reassure myself and actually use them. Thank you technology. Evernote has your back from web page links, pictures, snap shots and sharing you can have your note on demand in all your devices, where ever and when ever you want.

3. Meet up with like minded people. These are the positive people you have in your life that you always feel amazing after seeing them and feel recharged to take on your next assignment. I call them the health friends. The ones that don't suck out the life force out of you with their dark and limited outlook on life. They will suck you in deeper in your dark pit. Like minded people help you learn something new about what you do or love and share your interests and are happy for your dreams and success. Meet with them as often as you can. Its good that you don't feel crazy and alone.

4. Workout. If you are working for yourself or trying to build something with a team. Your mind is working over time, all the time, non stop. This mental exhaustion can leave you burnt out and ready to quit. Take the time to work on your body giving your mind a deserved release of mental stress.

5. Visual board of your goal. Visual boards are not only for preparing for photoshoot and getting everyone on the same vision and aesthetic. It can be a very beneficial map to getting what you want. there is a great quote to this.
"If you don’t know exactly where you’re going, how will you know when you get there?” – Steve Maraboli
6. Find inspiration on a daily basis. Inspirational thoughts give you a boost of adrenaline and that wonderful feel good hormone called; endorphins. Pinterest, books, music or your visual board can keep you motivated all day. Start the day positive, it gets your mind focus on what is important.

7. Be aware of your urges to quite and your plan to stop it. Hold the breaks. What did you just say to yourself? Beware, you are your own worst enemy. The insane scared and crazy part of your brain is out to get you. Take a moment to hear out your negative voice, then say the positive version out loud. Cause now you have made the positive true, though the existence of words. The same will work if someone speaks badly of you. Conflict is not needed, you have better things to do with your time.

8. Just do it Now. What more can I say.
“A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week.” – George Patton
“If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.” – Bruce Lee
“The least productive people are usually the ones who are most in favor of holding meetings.” – Thomas Sowell
“You can have it all. Just not all at once.” – Oprah Winfrey
“Procrastination is the foundation of all disasters.” – Pandora Poikilos
“The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.” – Abraham Lincoln
9. Remember your why. Why is the brain child to all your ambitious endeavours. Nurture it, feed it and  let it change and grow with you. This the rock on which you lay your foundation. Your why, will save you from hell and back into the light.

10. Get out of the office. Ahh, nothing like a soul draining, sanity exstinction like the florescent lights of the office. Like the stale air that blankets you into an emotional coma. Like the long walk to the water-closet where sanctuary is no where to be found. Get out of the office. A walk outside those four walls can boost your productivity and make you more likely to finish work earlier.

And if you are lucky. Weekends can be your holy time to reboot and re-energize your unmotivated bones. The best place for me to relax, away from the city life is taking a walk with my family in the forest. The fresh air, the smell of nature and the wonder of light, always make me feel reborn again.

Enjoy the montage. Let your mind wonder through the woods.
