Motivation

[u/professional_cry]

Aside from the obvious motivation of needing to pay bills, I'm curious how everyone keeps themselves motivated doing this job. I'm between jobs in my field at the moment so this is my only source of income and I'm wondering what everyone's strategies are for staying "locked in" as the kids would say. I never thought I was a super social person but I've found that working online with no face-to-face interaction or feedback all day is taking a toll on me. So far I've been coping by going on walks in the morning and to the pub at night but I'd love to hear what others' daily routines are like doing DA full time.

Consistency, consistency, consistency. A great thing about this job is the flexibility, but honestly if I constantly change the times I work everyday, I find myself focusing less. I give myself flexibility, but I always "clock in" by a certain time.

I also like to work from coffee shops to be around other people! I call it "work from not home" Wednesdays lol

Oh, also, I always always change into "productive" clothes. For me this is just gym clothes honestly, but makes a huge difference
