How to Stay MOTIVATED with Content Creation!

How to Stay MOTIVATED with Content Creation!

Staying motivated with content creation can be difficult, especially when you have other aspects of your business to tend to. 

 

We have all heard the ‘inspirational’ quote- “if you aim for the moon, you’ll land in the stars” and it could be our least favourite inspirational quote of all time. 

 

We’re not against setting big goals- we are against setting unattainable goals without the appropriate sub-goals. When man first aimed for the moon, we had already created the engine, powered motion, achieved man-powered flight, sent a dog to space, a human to space, and successfully orbited earth. There were a LOT of steps before the moon, and these steps were the reason we made it. Now look at us- off to Mars!

 

ONLY having a BIG goal can actually be super DEmotivating- it stops you from feeling that delicious sense of achievement you get when you hit a goal! Not only that but it can greatly contribute to feeling massively overwhelmed and burnt out. 

 

So, here are our TOP TIPS for staying MOTIVATED with your content creation GOALS:

 

Set Micro Goals

Small attainable goals will help you stay motivated by dripping you with constant dopamine! 

 

Make Your Goals Specific

If you can’t tell when your goal is complete, it’s not a good goal! We recommend setting numerical goals, that way you KNOW when you have ticked the box!

 

Reward Yourself

It doesn’t have to be big, but rewarding yourself with a treat evert time you hit a goal will help you keep your eye on the prize. 

 

Set yourself up for success

Establish clear work/life balance. One of the main contributors to demotivation is having too much on your plate with a lack of down time. Block out time specifically for your content creation to stay on top of it! Hustle culture never helped anyone!
