When I don't feel motivated...

Every time I feel unmotivated I have to remind myself of the reasons why I'm doing this...

1. I want to be a support to Alex and give him more time to pursue the things he enjoys.
2. I don't just want my boys to remember that I worked hard when they were little, but I want them to remember that I worked hard at something that brought me joy...that did not revolve around them, but that helped me enjoy being with them all day, every day.

So when I'm not feeling particularly motivated, I take the next opportunity I have to spend an hour working on the business. And it consistently surprises me that something usually happens. A party booking, a sale, or even just an encouraging conversation with someone...I always (so far) end the hour thinking, "okay, I can do this". And, I have to say, it's great to have consistent encouragement in this business.
