Reminding myself why I started what I do & rehearsing the vision.
Also surrounding myself with others who are driven by creating impact, and building products/services.
Thus, the entrepreneurship journey becomes less lonely.

By reading what other people are doing in technical articles and products.
Being on top of the info gives me a lot of insight and motivation to do more.
Motivated for work: Not so much
Motivated to live a better life: Definitely
Balancing my work and personal life has been a challenge, but I try to remain calm and composed in the face of adversity.
To achieve my goals, I create a yearly plan with a big, overarching objective at its center. I then break this goal down into smaller, actionable steps to be completed on a monthly basis. One of these to-dos is incorporating regular exercise and healthy eating into my routine. Hope you find this helpful.

Self discipline
I just focus on the end goal, not necessarily the week's goal, but what I'm aiming at achieving, and make sure that what I'm doing contributes in some way to that :)

Hello! I am a workaholic and for me the motivation is that I work with my team and it's nice.
Journaling always helps me get back on track.
I don't experience motivation in the same way that others do, but my working method and skills ensure that I am always performing to the best of my ability and that thing keeps me motivated always.
Training @singh_ankur.
Honestly, some good music, and a good workout, and I am set for the rest of the day/the following day.
Best way to keep your head up and release all the stress you may have experienced thorough the day
always keep vacation planned 2 or 3 months before, so there is something exciting to look forward to while working
The two things that have helped me most in recent months have been:
1.) To not think about the scale of what I need to accomplish, but rather focus just on the one or two things I can accomplish TODAY... worrying about tomorrow when tomorrow comes.
2.) Delayed gratification. I'm just a few weeks from launch, so the next milestone is just around the corner. But the weather is improving. I want to take my motorcycle out for a few rides. I want to enjoy a weekend away from this project... there are lots of little things waiting for me on the other side of launch that I'm looking forward to. I'm INTENTIONALLY dangling them out in front of me like a carrot. I'm intentionally not indulging in these pleasures, keeping them in front of me as a reward for doing what needs to be done NOW.
