Motivational speak makes me want to do the exact opposite. 
I find setting goals help - so if I know I have something coming up that's important I break it down into manageable pieces. I also don't beat myself up I don't stick to it religiously, when I've done it before I'll end up thinking "fuck it, I've messed up already might as well carry on". |

I can revert to the fuck it mentality so easily. I really don't want to. |

Nothing motivates me more than a deadline imposed by someone else eg a boss or an exam board  . I'm usually self motivated to do things I enjoy purely by the pleasure they bring and things I don't enjoy by the benefits that will accrue. Otherwise no amount of inspirational quotes or helpful suggestions will get this lazy bum off the sofa |

"I have a playlist of tunes that I think give me the get up and go feeling when I hear them.
"
I think I'll put some tunes on and tackle the s in the back garden.
I think I'll feel better then.
Mind you, it looks like rain!  |

"I ws going to ask for some pearls of wisdom.
*Techniques
*motivational speak
whatever works for you "
I just give myself a good bollocking (out loud) every now and again. Seems to work wonders....
For example "get up you lazy twat" about 15 minutes ago. I've now had breakfast, made a brew and am feeling a lot better about myself |

"I find walking up the centre of an isle in asda puts off cockwombles who try to enter the no entry signs, not really motivational but it is empowering "
I was said cockwomble at the motorway service station yesterday. I momentarily lost my sense of direction  |

It's gone out and left me a bit today... I've had a lie in..
I make far more lists these days, mentally and physically than I ever have and they tend to help.
Personally I'm in a good spot with creativity so whilst that is high, I'm very motivated. |

From what I have seen you are indeed motivated. Love the results that you have achieved  |
