Struggling with focus and motivation?

Hey all,

The latest #NotesOnFreelancing issue is live. I don't know about you, but I've struggled incredibly with focus and motivation during the past months, so this week I've been thinking a lot about lessons I've learnt so far.

I go through cycles, or seasons, that flip between being motivated and having absolutely no energy to do anything at all - and my most important realisation was that this is completely natural and we should, in fact, be allowing ourselves to flow through these seasons, accepting and leaning into our "fallow" periods.

As always, would love to know your thoughts and your own experiences with this.

Hope we're all doing good x

  • @Venetia Williams Yes, would love to! I'm @ameenarojee on insta :) Can always do with more inspiration and motivation x
  • @Venetia Williams Hey Venetia (LOVE your name btw!), thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment. It has been challenging thinking what to "reveal" or not, but tbh I always feel better being honest and upfront. Plus it's made me realise how someone else always feels the same, without fail, so always feel in the same boat. Not so much an area I'm going to with photography but just part of the journey that I'm sharing :) Love the thought of what you do, like a personal cheerleader and motivator! That's what I've realised seems to be so difficult for us to do for ourselves - much easier to do it for others I've found. Connection is definitely a big help as a freelancer x
