What do you do when you have no passion or drive?

What I personally do when I’m having issues with getting out bed, or having issues taking care of myself, (etc.) I remind myself of what got me to where I am now. I have this really big dream of moving to New York and becoming a bigshot lawyer! It got me through SO much. I think about how I want to look when I finally get there, and if I’d be happy with myself if I was there right now. Everybody has different things that motivate them and drive them! The goal is to be extraordinary. Losing your passion or motivation is a normal part of being human! Find what makes you happy and delve into it with everything you are!

I accept it. I accept that It might not be around for awhile or it can be back later on with completely different angle. Lack of passion or drive doesn't mean that you lost things once you have. For me, it means that I'm in a phase for rejuvenate, try to understand myself, my needs and who I am once more in this life, because questioning who you are is not a time-time-question to ask. We change all the time, we learn and grow and it can be scary or exiting or both at the same time. So if you have no passion or a inner-drive, accept it and start questioning! It's the ultimate path of growing up.

When I have no passion or drive, I simply try to take a step back and remember what exactly I am doing and why. Sometimes it is so easy to forget why we are doing something, and looking at things in a different light may be helpful to reassess what you wanted to get out of the situation entirely. Maybe looking up reasons why one loves the thing one was doing, or why one was drawn to that passion. We may always get burnt out when we focus all of our time and energy into one thing. But stepping back and remembering why may help us realize what we were passionate about in the first place.

When I have no passion or drive. I always do yoga or meditate. I also listen to music, talk to family and friends for their support, and motivate myself. These things are very helpful for me. This is something that I never hardly struggle with but I know how hard it can be for someone who deals with this on a regular basis. It is also very easy to lose your passion or drive when you get discouraged so having a good support system has always been beneficial to me. If you are someone who struggles from this you will get through it, just keep your head up.

It is important to remember that you are constantly growing and evolving into the person you are meant to be. You will discover and learn your likes and dislikes, your interests and hobbies. However, these things take time and require you to step outside your comfort zone and try new things. It sounds generic however, it is what enables you to truly find what you enjoy. When experiencing issues with drive or motivation, it's important to recognise the psychological aspect to this. The ambition comes from inside you and in my experience, learn to find discipline first, and drive will soon follow.

It’s completely normal to feel unmotivated at times, especially about work. Maybe there’s a task you’ve been ducking for weeks or a new project that’s taken the wind out of your sails. Whatever the cause, it can be downright impossible to get things done when those feelings hit. And that’s OK. Almost everyone struggles with feeling unmotivated and uninspired from time to time. In fact, when we surveyed hundreds of RescueTime users, we found that on average, people are just 60% motivated to do their daily work. Yet while these feelings are normal, they can become a serious distraction if they linger or intensify. So what can you do when that feeling of being unmotivated for work just won’t go away? The progress principle: Why tiny steps are better than shooting for the moon

I used to think passion or drive is a must to be interacting in the world but over the years my outlook has changed. Passion and drive sometimes can blind us hence we might make wrong choices for ourselves or for others , if we are in a responsible/ leader/head position . Rather than passion . I think setting a simple goal and slowly ,working towards it while practising higher values but at the same time being able to be flexible, non-judgemental is a good way rather then worry about quantity/quality of passion or drive .

You try to understand yourself, be there for you and see what you want. You will surely find your passion soon. Try to find yourself, you will find your passion is hidden beneath. Try meditating and relaxing your mind. Try new things, it's ok if you fail but do not give up. Giving up means giving up on yourself and life is not about giving up it is about learning new things and finding yourself. Do what you love the most and there you will find your passion. Everyone has some or the other passion, it just takes time to be discovered and everyone's passion is different from the other
