Should I continue? (alien.top)

I’m almost 2 years into my social media management and photography business.

I like the freedom but I already feel unmotivated about my business (this is a typical pattern of my life).

Profit was very good at the beginning, but very decreased now. No question as to why: because I simply don’t put enough effort and work into my practice. I don’t make enough outreach, etc. but I simply find it hard to put myself out there. I feel unmotivated..

Help!

Are you sure it’s not the other way around? Money dropped off so you started to feel less motivated? I know money motivates me if it’s enough of it.

Good point. I almost can’t pay my rent anymore..

But I also felt this sometimes when I was actually making money. However, I was so new in the game and didn’t have my ideal clients, so I think that was the case back then. Then I had a period where I was super happy and productive, enjoying my lifestyle. And then, now, back again 😬 But money is definitely an important factor!
