Fear of failure.

Rule of thumb: if you have to actively look for it, you'll never be motivated.
Motivation is not something you learn or something you make a habit of. You either have it or not.

It's the thing people mistakenly call "talent".

It's impressive how much bullshit one person can write in just 3 lines.

Motivation for me involves absorbing information and then eventually that will turn into an output. So I look at lots of art and photography, I try to read books, watch movies, listen to music. Eventually imagery and emotions that I soak in from that and from life will come out as art.

When I don't wanna draw and think I'm bad, I look my old sketchbooks.
Fells good.

i want you fuckers to understand a simple thing, no matter how much it hurts, how frustrated you are, no matter how you feel, life does not give a fuck about you. its your choose to fall but falling hurts way more that quitting so every day you chose to not improve because you're "tired" is a day you chose to let life fuck you over. every dish i was fills me with rage at what my life choices have brought me,that's what pushes me forward.

No, he's actually right.
The only thing that keeps me going is my inner motivation. I have no idea why I have it, but it never leaves me. And I surpassed a lot of other so called artists.

motivation comes after action not before it.

Honestly cringe art motivates me. I know its petty and pathetic but it works for me. The idea of being so bad at what I love to do that people might laugh at me keeps me driven.
