When I need some motivation I turn on Drake's song "Successful". Listening to music or watching success videos usually puts me into high gear and I go work crazy. Friends and family love what I do and I always picture taking them all on vacation with me to the Bahamas. Family is the strongest motivator.
Hang around positive people. I find that most ppl want you to fail - seems like out of jealousy. I have one that stands behind me and is very positive - that is my wife.
Great thread! My motivation is proving to myself that I can do it!
A bit of a tip that I use is to keep a journal of my marketing milestones, no matter how small. When I am feeling down and nothing is going right, I can look back and my journal and see what I have accomplished and reflect on how far I've come.
I've made copies of my first check, inserting them in plaques, then hung them next to my bed and at my work station.
I turn off the radio and television, opting to have positive messages lying around. I also network with like minded positive folks, that's a great way to surround ourselves with positive reinforcement.

One I heard of many, many years ago and that works for me is putting up pictures of things that you want. It could be a new car, a new house, perhaps a picture of a place you have always wanted to go on vacation to. And, you don't just put them by your computer. You put the on the fridge, bathroom mirror, etc. This way you don't just get motivated when you are working, but I find putting the photos elsewhere help motivate me to go to the computer and work.
Good suggestions all. I am also most highly motivated by family. I want to be able to spend more time with them, which involves travel, and I want to be able to help them out.
