My biggest problem is a lack of motivation. I have certain skills I acquired about a decade ago that could be used to earn a living, but I haven't used them since. Every time I try to get back into relearning them I always fall back into the same patterns. I put off or completely avoid the difficult stuff for the easy dopamine fix.

So, I'm wondering where to find some motivation and a little resolve to do what I have to do. Is this a problem anyone else here shares? What do you do when you need to motivate yourself?
