I am a lazy man
I am a lazy man.
Why am I so lazy? Where can I get motivation? How to force myself to get up and start doing something? I always ask myself these questions but I can't find any answers. Often I start doing something, do it good, everything is ok and... And all ends. In one moment. I can't explain this. I try again and again and again. Even when I like what I do, it always ends equally. That's why learning English too hard for me. Now I am pushing myself to learn English everyday, and want to say, "This is not easy! Really!". I had registered my italki account 2 weeks ago. I had been writing a letters for a week every day and natives had been correcting my mistakes. But 4 days ago I did stop. Why? Why I did it again? I don't know. But now I know I must continuing learn English every day and write letters every day to raise my knowledges to higher level. I must! And I will try.

You want to, you can and you will. You just have to find a purpose. I wanted to learn Spanish many years ago. I started too often to remember how many times that I quit. About 5 years ago, at 68 or so, I wanted to write about my maritime travels 50 years earlier before my memories started to fade away. But I hate writing English. Since I wanted to learn Spanish, why not write about it in Spanish instead. And that is what I did, thanks to many on italki, Lang-8, LiveMocha and other platforms. Now that my story has been written and published on WordPress, I continue learning Spanish. The trick is finding a practical application or purpose. Some member here on italki write about their day to day activities, other about what they're learning, etc. You can do it. As you can see, you English is pretty good. If you reread your text before posting it, reading it aloud a few times again, you'll find you'll eliminate 95% of your errors and start writing near perfect text and prose. Try it.

I have this problem all the time! I get lazy and things stop mattering to me for a while. It's difficult, but you can learn to overcome this by practising self-discipline, not just doing things when you're motivated. I recommend habitica.com to make doing your tasks a bit more fun :)

Hmmm. I don't think so. Many people have the same problem, I guess.

Maybe maximalism?
