Hi, do you have any advice on how to stay motived?

For me Motivation is a word that is part of the popular culture as few other psychological concepts are, so you have to find your own ways to motivate yourself

Hmm, okay I see what you mean. What do you do to stay motivated when you have to do a rather mundane task?

Motivation as a desire to perform an action that you rather not, so you need to find the reason why, and hopefully change your mind :D

Ahh I see, so if I find a suitable reason why I should do a task I will find motivation easier. That sounds good to me. :)

The "wanting behavior" associated with a rewarding stimulus can be increased by microinjections of dopamine, so you need to be happy to be motivated also :D

haha okay, but some tasks make it hard to be happy and therefore motivated, but sounds like its up to yourself to make the best out of it :)

Yes, you need to start from yourself, motivation is the reason for people's actions
