I have no motivation theses days, im always tiried and just out of it. I am in need of a job but I can not get motivated at all, I just can t seem to muster up any motivation to actuly go out to job interviews or anything like that. I m starting to think there is something wrong with me, because I used to have a load of energy and motivation and it s just not there anymore, do you think I could have some kind of problem? I feel I need help.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Must understand that motivation comes from need. If you are hungry, you are motivated to eat. Eating is a behavior which is directed towards quenching your hunger. Only goal directed behavior can satisfy goal. Therefore, it is very clear that you do not have any goal in your life, hence there is no motivation.

You should know yourself and your abilities to find a goal in your life. Once you set up a goal, stick to it and your behavior will change. You can consult a psychologist for further advise. Don't worry, because worry is not at all a solution to any problem.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
