Staying motivated without a company bonus can be tough, but there are other ways to keep yourself driven. Here's a simple guide:

  1. Set personal goals: Treat your motivation like a coding project. Break down your goals into smaller tasks and track your progress. Celebrate your achievements to stay motivated!
  2. Keep learning: Find new coding languages or technologies to learn. Expanding your skills can be rewarding and make you feel more valuable.
  3. Open-source projects: Contribute to open-source projects or build your own. This helps you gain experience, build a portfolio, and connect with the coding community.
  4. Find purpose: Understand how your work makes a difference. Knowing the impact of your code can make you feel more motivated and engaged.
  5. Connect with others: Join coding forums (like dev.to!) or meetups to share experiences and learn from other developers. This sense of community can help keep you motivated.

Remember, staying motivated without a bonus is like finding inspiration in your code. Focus on personal growth and the impact of your work to keep yourself driven!
