On days when motivation is low, I remind myself of my long term goals and why I started the task in the first place.

@nestolobo I mean, no particular strategies, you just put in work no matter what
I keep a list of quick wins, small, easy tasks that I can knock out quickly. It’s amazing how checking a few things off the list can build momentum and lift my mood.

@jahanzaib_ara That’s a great approach! Knocking out quick wins really does create a positive ripple effect.
When I’m struggling with motivation, I like to remind myself of the bigger picture and my long-term goals. Reflecting on why I’m doing what I’m doing can reignite my drive and help me push through.

@james_ffrank Keeping the bigger picture in mind really helps to stay focused.
I’ve started using the Pomodoro Technique. Working in focused intervals with short breaks helps me stay productive even when I’m not feeling super motivated.

@ulysse_renaud The Pomodoro Technique really does help maintain focus.
Find quick wins. Stuff that you can accomplish immediately. If it's bigger projects, break them down and figure out smaller wins. I feel more accomplished and better when I feel like I'm winning. Silly but it works
the only thing that boost my motivation is money and more money, no matter i lost in https://bestsimulationgame.com/ or i won but the thing i know is to boost my money nothing else.

Take breaks, go for walks, switch up your work environment if you can. Also try focusing on smaller, more manageable tasks to build momentum. Setting mini-rewards for completing tasks can help too. And if all else fails, just force yourself to start - motivation often comes after you begin, not before!
