Sounds like youre doing really well 🙂 congrats on taking the leap and getting started!
i think different people are motivated in different ways. my boyfriend, for example, is an artist. He is motivated by aquariums. Every time we go to an aquarium he comes home inspired and wants to draw and create for hours. We can have the television, music, just about anything on, and he continues to draw. Or sometimes we will simply sit at a cafe and he draws the people around him.
My sister is a graphic designer motivated by all kinds of things. Her latest form of art has been baking and decorating these intricate, beautiful cakes.
I find myself most motivated when in the company of other motivated working creative types, so I tend to like to go to public spaces (like cafes) and work from there. Something always inevitably inspires me this way. For me, getting out of the house is what helps.
Just a couple of suggestions 🙂 All in all, I think the best way to keep motivated is to keep inspired. Hold on to the reason youre doing this, and continue to re-inspire yourself 🙂
