How to motivate yourself? There are different levels to motivation. Emotional. Creative. Imaginative. I am a self-taught starting photographer and I have my moments of loss then gain. As soon as you hit a glitch your two choices are to move on or to divert. So technically, you only have one choice. To move on, to succeed with confidence. But where to get your motivation to creative ideas...? Take a look below and see if any of these ring a bell. Sometimes it's as easy as picking up your camera and shooting blanks - sometimes those candid shots can be your best result! Happy clicking!

Motivation can be emotional based on how you feel in a given moment, at the end of the day. Here are some words to find motivation from:

Tired
Used
Happiness
Devotion
Excitement
Love
Hurt
Pain
Greed
Sadness
Loneliness
Comfort
Scared/Afraid
