They say motivation is hard to conjure, especially when the☀️is out.

Well, I’m currently on this little beautiful island. Granted there has been some mega tropical rainy days, however even when the glorious sun appears, I do feel motivated to work. 

There are probably a lot of reasons why I still get inspired to bust my ass. Some of it does come from the island and it’s people, some of it comes from sitting in the cafe down the road in the morning for breakfast with other remote workers before they catch a wave 🌊🏄‍♀️ (no, not me I’m yet to find the courage to learn 🙃)

The major one is that, I get to do this. Get to build my life around travelling. So I’m grateful. 

I do still help myself be productive on a daily basis. Even if sometimes the motivation isn’t there, it’s about being disciplined and consistent. I do these things: 

📝 If I didn’t do it the evening before, I wake up early and create a to do list for the day of what I need to conquer that day. 

✅ I do the things that are so easy to postpone ( because they seem big and hairy or mundane etc) first, first thing in the morning. Get it done and over with. 

☕️ Every time I go to a cafe, I bring my laptop. Some of the little things on the list I can do over a cup of tea.

👩🏽‍💻I change where I work. Sometime it takes a little change of environment to get inspired. 

How do you stay motivated when you’re just not feeling it?
