I've tried in the past 6y a lot of things - some worked out great, some didn't, some made money while others were a waste of money.
I can't actually say that i'm in a bad position right now ( I ain't rich but i do have money to live and have a few trips every couple of months )
So...
Even tho i'm "comfortable" i want, you know, MORE
No i don't plan to become a millionaire, all i wish is to go to a store without needing to look at the prices ( normal store ( like food ), not cars or whatever )
I do have a couple online "things" going on but they don't bring me money yet ( I'm not disappointed I'm patient )

Back to the subject.

How do i get rid of the poor mentality? I simply can't get myself out of the "comfortable" zone
I know i could to things to make money ( faster or at least more money on the long run ) yet i'm not doing it.
I'm not doing anything. I feel demotivated by everything.

How do i get the motivation to make money?
What made you start making money and working on it?
I know it probably went bad sometimes even for your bhw members so what made you not give up?
Persistence and Perseverance pays off in the end, but what made you keep pushing until that "end"?
 
Go out and network ( I know that is not easy to execute, trust me). But you could simply just go to a bar or a meetup and start taking to people. Also follow a bunch of subreddits and/or other forums to find other ways of making money. Look into different language forums and use gtranslate. It's fun to see other geos and how they succeed in the financial space.

Look at different ways of making and saving money. (Not pushing it into you, but infinite banking and velocity banking are interesting concepts that I've learned about lately, and it's changed my whole perspective.)

Think about the things that ppl buy or invest into, this will give you inspiration. (Crypto, drop shipping, local businesses, GMB, etc.)

Look up entreprenerd on TikTok, his vids have mini saas ideas that could spark your creativity, which in turn motivates you.

Unfortunately brother, the "end" doesn't exist. It's a fallacy. Once you accept that fact, you'll realize you can spend your time doing and pushing and progressing, instead of worrying about what the end will look like.. you'll never be satisfied, always hungry. That's a good thing 90%of the time. Because as you go thru life, you'll find something or someone that will help you create (passionately) the "end" you've been looking for. (from an outside perspective).

Hope that helps. Good luck with your journey. You can also feel free to share your journey (s) here with us. And gain some feedback/motivation, brother.

Materialism and faith in bringing help to a good world (at least I care).
What made you start making money and working on it?
Research, lots of commitment.

Persistence.

Persistence.
 
Think and grow rich. Read the book.
Get a stand-up desk.
Keep room temperature around 18c. You can set it higher when work is done.
 
Motivation is like an emotion, it comes and goes. What you need is self-discipline so that you can work even when you don't feel like it. Build it up by slowly doing things you don't like to do (like cold showers or extra workouts) and it will cross over to business.
Just remember that your mental health is equally as important, so it's okay to take a break for that reason.
 
Pack your bags and travel different places with as low budget as possible for a few weeks (use hostel dorms and public transports). Try to connect to people as much as you can. Trust me, you'll come back as a changed person.

I've tried this once or twice i don't actually remember it well since it was some time ago but all i remember is that i got into a zone with random people i disliked ( pretty much all that happened was talking about how rich they - Gurus trying to sell me something - People that spoke without having any ideas of what they are talking about but trying to look smart and so on). Might be a country based problem since everyone here is trying to flex - sometimes even without having something to flex with.

I'm saving money out of my salary atm ( it's somewhat enough to be comfortable )

I am thinking about these things and acting on them but after some time i just lose interest and get back into the comfort zone

I have a couple of websites in the gaming zone/porn/mobile stuff / some yt channels - nothing actually important on the short run - They are automated so they are doing fine
ALSO Thank you, it was nice reading something from someone that really wanted to help, I really appreciate that
Persistence.
Persistence is needed when you have a motivation, i don't have a motivation. I wish for something and I'm not doing anything
Think and grow rich. Read the book.
Get a stand-up desk.
Keep room temperature around 18c. You can set it higher when work is done.
I'll be checking that book, Thank you
Also a stand-up desk isn't meant for my fat ass
The room temperature is around 18c always, i kinda like cold.

I've tried doing small steps before, i do them for some time but end up going back in comfort zone with the smallest "excuse" i can get
I'm thinking about going to a therapy or something like that, I also start to think that something is wrong with my mentality

I am already doing this but sadly i live in a semi 3rd world country? Salaries here don't offer the luxury of traveling that often ( even if they are low budget ) - You also have to pay rent/gas/utilities even when that trip is over so I can't afford it.
Also for some reason i kinda get depressed every time i'm coming back? It's not bcus i dislike being in the comfort zone, more like , i feel sad bcus i know i'll have to wait for couple of months to experience the trip joy again.
I enjoy going out and connecting with people but for some reason i can't get motivated enough to make it happen more often?
 
i was in this position too when i made a 30k in a month i said i was set and took a break and got set back what u need to do is join a co working space and get at it that way. you need to stay connected with pure active workers
 
What made me keep pushing? Hmm. Lets see...

Well, my official answer is, i didnt have anything better to do :)
I also dont have anything better to do but i would still waste that time instead of doing anything
So how did it work for you? You finished every series/movie/book that was interesting for you and that made you start doing something?

I agree that finding motivated people would also motivate you and i agree that i go around with people that are always chillin. But where do you find motivated people?
 
I dont need motivation, I just do the thing everyday. If I am sick or if I am in the beach enjoying a cold beer for me is the same. I always do the work, even if a super beauty is waiting for me I finish my work first. Thats how it should be. Motivation to do something is bs when you are hungry you dont need motivation to cook or eat, so keep yourself always hungry. Hardwire your brain to work like a robot and you will be free from motivation thing.
 
You gotta be the alpha male mate!

Your dopamine levels is low. There are ways or supplements available. Look for it. Add cod liver oil supplement too daily to your routine and lastly talk to someone you trust about it. Prayer helps too.
 
i'm a man and my only option is to work. I wake up like this every morning. I have to do this even if I don't want to.
 
I can relate to this. I can see 2 things:
Maybe people who are chasing money think it will make their life better. When you know it's not really the case and you are quite satisfied with not much, it's hard to be motivated to make more money. Try maybe to set a goal: To buy you something nice, a big trip, or something else. And the goal is to earn more than what this costs. What you need for it + what you'll put aside. The idea of getting your "reward" may motivate you. A nice car for example.

It may be easier to partner with one or more people. It's probably easier to want things to go forward when you're not alone. Or even want others to push forward, so you tend to motivate them. And they'll do the same for you.

For this there are also accountability groups. There are some on TG, Discord or you can just make your own. There people share their plans and in the evening they show what they completed for the day. Making this a daily habit will boost productivity by a lot.
