I do feel the same way about mechanical tasks. What I have done is to create a schedule, not in outlook or other digital reminder gadgets, but on paper, and taped it to my desktop (The one in real life, not on the computer) It is divided by hours and It says that on Mondays at 12 o clock I need to prepare for a Tuesday presentation and so on. All routine work is written down on this time table and I follow it just as when I was in school. I even had a check field that I crossed out when I did the task in the start, but today I memories it and it seems to work for me. I guess you have a great way of helping people you don’t know through your blog? :) It has sure helped me to get other view on topics we discuss. Hi James!

Hi, Frode

I am a naturally highly self motivated person, but the times that I am less motivated are when I am tired or when the tasks that I am performing become just a mechanical action, like repeating the same thing over and over again. I find the best ways for me to motivate myself when those occasions present themselves are to find myself something more creative to do, or to make an effort to perform the task more systematically, which will help to remove the boredom from the task.

I also find motivating other people can be very self motivating when I see the results of their performance.

But what really gets me re-motivated is helping other people who I don’t know, to do more things in their lives and to get a positive attitude, no matter what adversity they are having to face.
