how do you keep motivated

well just trying to get some ideas.

i've completly lost my motivation to work on my super (the engine is sitting in the basement half assembled)

i just can't seem to get myself motivated to work on it. :shrug:

the cars out back waiting to have the engine put back in. it's insured and licensed, but it's like i've lost interest.

Hmm. maybe download some sick videos of hot dubs ripping up the tarmac!
That always gets me stoked!

What gets me motivated is watching shows like monster garage, american hotrod, etc., and when I look through magazines....that always keeps me going.....

Sometimes you need a rest though, just leave it for a couple months.....it will come back to you....

Good luck.

Rob.
