Writer Unleashed

#29: How to Re-Ignite Your Motivation to Write


Listen Later

Some days you're on fire. Other days, you feel like a dried up spec of dust. With no soul.

You’ve lost motivation and may even have stopped writing altogether. So how do you get your mojo back so you can bring your work in progress to the finish line?

On today's episode of Writer Unleashed, we'll explore 5 reasons our motivation fizzles out and how to turn it around.

We'll talk about: 

  • the power of having a safe, judgement-free community 
  • what social scientists have discovered about what really motivates us. (this may surprise you.)
  • the real reason we hit road blocks, plus what we need to break through
  • what flow is and how to get more of it, and...
  • how to stay motivated day by day
