Hi!
Recently when I was struggling to get motivated, someone told me about finding your core values. There are plenty of methods online, here is one for example.

I found those 3 to be my core values:

  • freedom
  • innovation
  • communication

The point of all this is that once you find your own core values, you can pick goals/projects that are aligned with these values and thus are most likely to keep you motivated in the long run. Errors will still be frustrating but when you know why you are doing it it's easier to go forward :).

Hope this helps!
