Final Thoughts

Without motivation, you may find yourself giving up after a few failed attempts, or even on the first tough challenge thrown your way.

Or you may remain stuck where you are, unhappy yet not really doing anything to make any progress to get out of your undesirable situation.

Set small, manageable goals to build momentum and look for inspiration wherever you can, sometimes it can be found in surprising places.

Track your progress and celebrate your small victories. Be open to new opportunities that present themselves.
