i want to start writing but i find i can't get motivated. i have good ideas; i just can't be motivated to pick up a pencil (or mouse) and start writing. any tips?
the way you say it, it sounds quite strange. if you want to do it, then you're motivated (want is motivation). if you're not motivated, then it means you don't want to. and yet, you say you want to, but you also don't want to. so on the surface this doesn't make sense. Usually this descrepancy can be resolved if you actually just take a closer look at what it actually is that you DO and DON'T want to do. They will turn out to be 2 different things. in that case, you can probably just choose the one you want and do that one
