Hi Lola! To stay motivated, I try to set monthly goals that aren't directly related to money. For example, I set a goal to get into a large publication. (check). I set a goal to get 200 followers (check). I set a goal to get 500 views (check). I set a goal to read 3 new writers a day (check). Each month, I try to set and accomplish one goal. The more months that go by, the easier it is to reach the larger goals. It takes the focus off money and makes it a little more fun. Best of luck on this journey!!
