How do you get that job done that really doesn't inspire you? What sort of goals and milestones do you set yourself?

MY FAMILY MOTIVATES ME

If you had asked me that question a year ago, I would have replied that anger motivates me. It still does to some degree, but I now have an unconditional love in my life and that motivates me to be the best person that I can be. Because he is such a good role model, I find that I do whatever I can to live up to his expectations of me. This is a good thing, as I am naturally somewhat lazy and self-indulgent.
I ned to add though that He does not "expect" anything of me except that I be faithful and honest with him. I just find that I want to be what he deserves in a woman. That motivates me in all aspects of my life.

I try and set myself goals outside of work, like, planning to see my friends at weekend, going for dinner, see a band, shopping, going to the gym etc. As i dont really enjoy my job i try and make my out of hours life interesting. I need to save money as i want to move out though as i do tend to live for the weekend and end up spending too much money!

If it's a big job,or particularily unpleasant one I will do it in increments-alotting myself a strict time frame- while reminding myself I am this much closer to being done.Also,treat yourself after to something simple but long put off-that hike in the woods,favorite chips/dip and game etc

I think of all the good things I will be free to get on with once the things I dislike are done.

making a check list and ticking off the things i have done, and what is left to do. the joy is seeing the ticks, and even if something i hate HAS to be done, giving it a tick off, is a great feeling. sometimes making yoursef satisied with smaller things is good.

I say to myself "You can check hotmail/myspace/yahooanswers in an hour as long as you work on that feature"
I don't let myself check them until it's done.
