    Finding motivation when you have a 9-5

    NOTABLE! 
    Hey everyone, I just joined this forum yesterday. Anyway, I am having major motivation issues. I work a 9-5 and when I should be working (like right now), I am constantly thinking about my business and what I can do to improve.

    My Business Just had it's Worst Month on Record. Why this is the Best Thing that's Ever Happened.

    EXECUTION 
    This is from a post I wrote today for my personal blog. If no one minds, I will link to the actual post later. But for now I'll just copy and paste the text. I'm pretty long winded when I write, and generally lack the ability to even summarize well enough for an accurate TL;DR. So for you people...

    What motivates you ?

    MINDSET 
    ..... Because I'm not certain what motivates me ! The common feedback I get is that this is a problem but I still persist in my projects so I guess the real problem is that 'I can't articulate what motivates me' rather than 'I'm not motivated'. It would be good to actually pin it down just so...

    The Best 10 Minutes of Your Life In Bed

    MINDSET 
    Growing up I was always taught to be polite, have manners and fit in. Being timid and passive was prized over bold and outlandish. This carried over into my early professional life and as a young man I found only moderate success as a professional, but passive real estate agent. I found myself...

    Unscripted Motivation- Poking the Piñata.

    MINDSET 
    "Poking the piñata" was a concept in Unscripted that really resonated with me. If you think about it, it is a really good metaphor. The piñata is the market. Full of money. Waiting to be smacked wide open. We try and try (poke) to open it up, but it doesn't break. Unfortunately many of us give...

    INTRO 
    I left active duty in 2007, but remained a Reservist until 2015. I will always cherish my time serving my country. The values have remained and I strive to continuously give back - which is the biggest reason I work in the non-profit industry at the moment! I fell to consumerism when I was...

    Craft A New Life For Yourself (An FTE Tale)

    MINDSET FTE 
    You roll out of your car in haste, grabbing your lanyard. You walk to the office building, and swipe it against the door card reader to clock in. You say pleasant "mornings" to the other worker drones with a half-baked smile on your face. Today is yet another Monday. You do genuinely care...

    I'm sorry, but this is going to be painful for a lot of you...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm not sure if you're ready for what I'm about to ask you to do. It's going to be painful, you're most likely going to cry, and it's going to suck at first. But I can promise you that things are going to be a thousand times more painful in 5 or 10 years if you don't do what I'm asking you to...
