Losing a motivation is something we often feel when we are saturated in doing the same repeated thing for a long time. Losing a motivation can also happen to a blogger; it is not once or twice we heard a story about a blogger who feels saturated in blogging or feel saturated because there is not any progress in his attempt to optimize his blog which then eventually results in a loss of motivation to continue his steps.
Well, I also often feel saturated when I have to drop my entrecard everyday, to think what I will post today, to consider what next steps needed to optimize blog in serp page, and to do other various activities in managing some blogs in which the saturation then makes us lost our motivation to do something as though we have a deadlock.
What do you usually do when you are saturated and lose your motivation?
Reading success story of a blogger usually becomes my choice to eliminate saturation and bring back my motivation. Usually, by reading their success stories, my motivation to achieve my success becomes stronger. Of course, I also manage to have time to do other fun things occasionally to refresh my mind.
One thing you should know in growing a motivation is ‘We know the source of our motivation’. Occasionally, someone is motivated because he wants to be succeed, wants to achieve better position in career or someone is motivated because he is afraid of being poor, afraid of being fail and so on. Once we know the source of our motivation, we must make it easy to remember so that it often occurs in our mind; whether by placing a target that want to be achieved on the background screen or by having any things that are easy for us to remember.
Certainly, there are many other ways, but since I am not an expert in this field, I am only able to deliver what I have experienced. Before I end this, I want to remind you ‘Those who are successful are those who are able to motivate themselves’.

I think this is why High school seniors give up, we know the system. Heck, I can call when pop-quizzes are.
I use my blog to keep me focus on my goal, it forces me to keep up with the industry which I need to go into to complete my dream. That’s how I stay motivated.

Motivation is a difficult thing to come by at times. A good motivator sometimes is to attend a conference to give you new ideas!
