Motivation to Build Your Online Course

Creating an online course is tiring and at some point we all suffer from a lack of motivation.

Even if we really love what we are working on there can be times where it is just impossible to sit down and put in the work.

This is usually the sign that we need a break. Some people take vacations, while other may just pick up a new book just to give their brain a rest.

But when the vacation is over and the book is done – you have to find motivation to jump back into your online course project… and that can sometimes be extremely difficult!

When you consider the time it takes to create an online course it becomes quite clear why people often get overwhelmed and give up.

But I have good news!

There are some small things you can do to boost your motivation and gain momentum for your course.

In fact, I personally find that once I start to get a little momentum in any project I am working on that it becomes easier to do over time. This blog post is a perfect example. I didn’t really know what I was going to write about originally but after a few sentences I have built up some momentum! 🙂

If you are looking for ways to get motivated again then consider using one of the 14 different methods below. The one I identify most with is number six. Start off with “small wins” and they will snowball into bigger accomplishments.

When you’re done, use your new found motivation to build your online course!
