Other than pain of poverty? I found one thing that brings it, tunes. Looping this.
This site is supposed to be closed to me during working hours!

From a tweet: "Train your discipline to do work you don’t like, train your creativity to make it enjoyable."

I like that statement. Train your creativity. Nice one man
I would say make it a game, like not trying to make money but just trying to do the best you can as if it’s getting a high score. Then trying to beat that high score. I like competition so would use that as motivation.

Doing what you like helps.
Finding the art and/or flow to what you do also helps.
Dont be afraid to get creative when necessary.
After almost thirteen years of self-employment working in the woods, these are some things I've gleaned.

Sometimes I work solo, other times with a crew. I'm not naturally a highly competitive person. I do my own thing and tend to let others do their's.
Working with others in a semi-competitive environment (at times, largely due to youth and ego/machismo) I had to learn the only person I'm competing with is myself. Striving to be more efficient, accurate, safe, and productive. There are days when I'm my biggest critic and don't feel great, and there are other days of triumph, glory, and reflection.

Agree with that. Sometimes it might a little difficult though. When it gets too difficult for me, I try to look for help, like with the translations for example https://isaccurate.com/turkish-translation-services. Had to do everything myself and vocabulary only, but ending up using a professional translation service. Will do that again if I need to as I had some great time doing other things which are important for me.
