Start Small
In building your confidence and motivation, small wins are so crucial. When you seem like you've been constantly working for a target, it can be so demotivating, if you have no results to back it up.
That is why starting small is one of the great things that you can do when you feel unmotivated. Do a task that is simple to execute and will have visible outcomes. You will feel inspired to take on the bigger ones by achieving small, simple tasks.
Clean anything in the house. Put some good music on and get to work cleaning and rearranging. You will see the immediate benefits of a clean space, which invigorates you to do more, and getting a clean space makes you feel good. Cleaning up will give you this double advantage.

Look For The Ways Your Work Impacts the People Around You
When we do not see the value of our jobs, procrastination hits us harder. We are often fixated on our day-to-day activities and miss the bigger picture. It is, indeed, this connection to a greater cause that enables us to find strength and inspiration at work.
But what if your work doesn't have a tremendous impact? That's okay. We are not only talking about some enormous, world-changing impacts here. In reality, it is easier to think about how the people you spend your day with have benefited from your job.
One of the most primary motivations we have is personal relationships. And studies show that when you feel a closer bond with your teammates, you're actually more driven.
Take a quick break each day to write down three ways your role has helped the people around you. This practice changes your attitude and shows you that you are always helping the people around you, even though you feel unmotivated.
Tap Into Other People's Motivation and Energy
Another perfect way of recharging your motivation is actually to tap into other people's motivating energies and experiences. Communicate about goals and what they feel most inspired to do and achieve in their lives with the people in your life.
But, don't feel restricted to only the people you encounter in real life. By listening to motivational podcasts, you can also recharge your energy. Or you can read a chapter from one of your beloved personal improvement books or a new post on a blog you really like.
You can transform your attitude and mentality around and spark your drive again by spending just 5 or 10 minutes doing these. Sometimes, motivation just cannot come from within but from those around you.
