No matter what you are struggling to stay motivated with, it is frustrating to not hold the same amount of enthusiasm that you used to. Again, remember that you are not the only person who is suffering from this problem.

If you notice that you are consistently unmotivated, consider giving yourself a chance to relax, finding a fun hobby, or meeting with some friends on Zoom.
