When you hit a slump and get lazy, remember that its not all over.  Don't just quit all together because you slacked off for a couple of days.  Get back to it!\n\nInvision what your goal is, and when you feel yourself slacking, picture the end result and focus on that!!\n\nGood luck!

Try to set goals first then try to motivate yourself by thinking of the result of achieving this goal. Once you get motivated... you would be able to concentrate very easily. About the changes happening around .. well you have to ignore them... have to understand that you cannot let this things interfere between you and your goal. \n\nAlso finding people who want to achieve same goal.. and working for it collectively also helps to improve on concentration.

When you are this down then you do not usually see things rationally.\n\nTry doing something new and different, something that you have not done or tried for some time. Remember, the time and resources that you spend on this should actually benefit you emotionally, career wise or financially. \n\nIn essence, it should serve a goal of your life not just show as a loss of time and effort at the and of the day. You will feel much better since it would have increased your own worth, reinstated your pride, improved your emotional standing or add to your financial picture.

There can be a difference.  If it has to do with work it's probably not that you're lazy, you just haven't found something you're passionate about or enjoy doing so you lack motivation to work hard at it.  If you're making an effort with your life then you're not lazy, but if you're not feeling motivated in what you're doing right now, you haven't found that thing that you're passionate about.  You'll eventually find it and that's good that you're friend feels that you're not capable of being lazy.  Sometimes people get into slumps and need time to come out of them.  I'm going through the same thing! Good luck!

Passion\n\nI've received the question about motivation to workout several times. A bit back, I emailed a fellow who simply wished the question of motivation could be answered.\n\nI think the 2 most frequently asked questions that I address in my Beginners' Guide to Fitness and Bodybuilding are:\n\n1) How do I get motivated?\n2) How soon can I expect to see results?\n\nAfter doing some research today, I think the ultimate key to motivation is:\n\nPassion\n\nYes, p-a-s-s-i-o-n\n\nWithout that burning desire to succeed, most things will elude you. Desire comes from an interest that can grow into passion.\n\nIf you have a passion for something, you'll do whatever it takes to be successful. Without it, you'll only be partly committed and only partly successful.\n\nTake a look at any major sports star or entertainer, the passion they have for their sport is obvious. It is what drives them to succeed and motivates them to give 100%. Without it, they would just be average.\n\nTo be successful in the pursuit of fitness, it needs to become a passion. So if you don't have a strong interest in becoming fit, I suggest you find other activities you do enjoy. Getting fit isn't something anybody does well as a passing interest.\n\nBut do realize that you need to know more about fitness in general before you can develop a real enthusiasm for it. In my case, as I kept learning more and more about training, nutrition and supplements, my interest really started to grow.\n\nAnd understand that you don't need to be obsessive about working out. You can be very successful just doing 45 minutes a session, 3 times a week. You don't need to live in the gym or spend every second thinking about working out.

There isn't anything.  Learn to be happy with what you have.

You are just like me. \nKeep telling yourself "I HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE ".\ngo ahead and say what you need to say and do what you want to do without having that feeling, because if you do and you lose is same as not saying and still losing. so you have more chance to win by doing and saying what you need to do and say. \nGood Luck.

sometimes we don't feel motivated but later we regret it. forget about motivation. read the text and underline only the important things. then read it again but just the underlined bits. don't underline 2 much. then close the book and do something else for 10-15 min. read the underlined again. try to review in your head the whole thing. reconstruct the whole matter in your head. you can also speak it out loud if you wish. look for more information on the same subject or on parts of it which are not completely clear on the net or elsewhere. read the underlined again.

Start each day with a purpose.  Just because you can do whatever it is you feel like doing shouldn't interfere with a daily life consisting of goals and responsibilities.  Self discipline takes willpower and the want to change also play a major factor.  When boredom sets in you will eventually have to discipline yourself into a new routine or you can always stay stagnant in time wasted...\n\nI get up each day and although I don't have anywhere I must be at any certain time I choose to get up, wash up and make a difference to my family and in my home and then it is my time...and that still leaves me with more than enough my time.

You understand it, then detach from it and rememberthe feeling. Once you come to grips you can only go up from there. start off with small goals and work your way up doing larger tasks. Don't overwhelm yourself and be sure to talk to someone to get another view or just to vent.

I find the best motivation for exercise is to start just that once. Activity begets activity and once I get back into things I am more enhtusiastic about exercise and I find it more enjoyable.\nAnother suggestion is to get a workout / exercise partner. If you have made a commitment to somebody else you're more likely to stick to it than if you are only letting yourslef down. Arrange to meet a friend for a walk or a game of something or a gym workout. You can be social as well as fit.\n\nGood luck

Start with something you like, like walking.  build up slowly, don't try any heroic routines that will cause you to crash and burn right out of the gate.  If you focus on stuff you enjoy doing, it won't feel like such a struggle and you won't dread doing it.  Good luck!
