I think it’s interesting how many different things can motivate different people.  Some people are motivated by something that would completely offended another person, while other people are only motivated by one or two things.  However you look at it, it always seems like there are many more things to distract a person rather than to motivate them.  A person finds themselves getting bored and suddenly can think of a million other things that “need” to get done rather than the thing that they are working on…or if you try to force yourself to work on a project without the motivation, you might just find that you are simply staring at it while the clock ticks the minutes by. 

So when you find that you are unmotivated, what do you do?  Is it better to try and force yourself to work on something that you are obviously not interested in, or is it better to let yourself be distracted by everything except that one thing that you really were planning on getting done? 

How do you figure out what motivates a person?  How can you try and find that one trigger that will get it done; people can’t always figure this out for themselves much less other people.
