Why is it that I know I have to work, I am sitting in front of my work ..?

and I just cannot get motivated to do it?? It is boring and I hate it but I need the money. Why can't I just do it? I find every excuse for not doing it! (I work from home).. HELP!

Answers:
Working from home is PART of the problem. If you were in an office setting, you would feel more motivated because your peers are slaving away. Obviously, yhou are being distracted at home by other elements of life and that, as you know, is NOT conducive to good work habits.

I just do not know what and who is at your home.. Are there kids running around to distract you?

Obviously procrastination is your problem or at least one of them. There are many reasons for procrastination. We may feel that the task is mundane and so we always find something more interesting to do. We are all guilty of this type of procrastination. If the task is important to us then our reasons for procrastinating becomes more complex. It is usually because of one or more of the following reasons

fear of rejection
fear of failure and/or
not feeling worthy or deserving

Quit being lazy!!
Maybe time for a career change.
Break up the monotony,and send out a few naughty emails(-;
maybe try another career. If you hate it so much, might be time to try something else. In the meantime...just bite the bullet and do it. make a goal for each day..and reach it.

i am a stay at home mom..and I hate housework. But, everyday I set a goal for myself. When I get my goal done for that day I will reward myself with reading a favorite book after the kids go to bed. for me it works. I have something to look forward too.

good luck. i hope this helps.
Perhaps like they tell you to do when you are trying to stop smoking. Make a list of why you are doing it.

In your case.

You do it to bring home the bacon.
keep a roof over your head
put food on the table.
buy clothing
pay insurance
pay the water bill

and so on.

If it is boring try to find a way to make it less boring. There also is the reward system. Do the boring stuff for an hour, then get up and reward yourself with something you prefer doing for an hour. then sit back down and do more boring stuff.
i think the word "motivation" is highly overrated. motivation is nothing more than deciding to do something then actually doing it. if you are waiting until some force comes along and makes the thing you have to do seem like the thing you just can't wait to do, then you will be waiting for a long, long time. quit being so lazy. decide to do it, then do it. that's all there is to it.
