3 Big Reasons You Feel Unmotivated

Remember when you first started your job and anything seemed possible? Each work day was like a bright new horizon: problems to solve, coworkers to collaborate with, and new challenges to tackle. If that magical feeling is gone, you may have lost your motivation. Here are three reasons you may be feeling unmotivated, and what you can do about it.

Your Work Doesn't Inspire You

Everyone wants to feel like their work matters, so what are the things that really matter to you? If your work doesn't align with your goals and values, then it will turn into drudgery before long.

Look for opportunities within your company to work on new products or a different team. But if your company can't provide you with inspiring work, it may be time to explore a new career that will make you feel alive again.

You Don't Respect Your Coworkers

A large part of our job satisfaction comes from the people we work with. If your managers and coworkers have given up on excellence and settled for mediocrity, it won't be long before you fall into the same mindset. You can try to raise your own standards and put your coworkers' poor attitudes behind you. But if the overall company culture is suffering, then you should explore new positions where you'll respect the people you work with.

Your Life Has Changed, And So Have You

As we mature, our values and ambitions grow with us. Your job may have been perfectly satisfying 10 years ago, but now you may be ready for new challenges or even an entirely new career path. First, look at your own company to see where you can advance in job title, skills, or experience. Then look beyond your current job to explore new positions that are a better fit for who you are today.
