How do you motivate yourself?

Open

Well I'm about to graduate.
I mean, I was five or six months ago at least, then I messed up and wasted a lot of time. I've only ended up going back to my hometown and losing even more motivation to study, due some harsh stituations (let's put it that way) back home.
I've left only my MA thesys to write and that last, awful statistics exam but lately I've been lacking motivation and self-confidence.
I've even thought of leaving university.
I don't expect some stranger on the web to help me, I just needed to write something down, I think.

Well, at least you got an invite only GA, didn't you?

I'm a freelancer, so I'm familiar with the pros & cons of managing my own time. For those periods when I'm out of motivation with the task at hand, I make a rigid schedule and stick to it. Get up early, get dressed, start working by 8am, crank out the tasks one at a time as if I were going to the office. When motivation is low, strict rules can function as an acceptable substitute. And then when divine inspiration touches you again, you can (must!) loosen up and let it take you along. But for now, power through – you've got this.
Also, Mario needs to come find Princess, not the other way...
