How do you force yourself to work if you're self-employed?
I only have enough motivation to work just enough to make my needs met. How to work more? How to motivate myself to?

Tomorrow you'll wake up (unfortunately)

If you work hard today you will not feel tired after you wake up tomorrow and you'll have more money

If you don't work hard today you won't feel tired but you also won't have as much money

Simple

If you have to force yourself then what’s you are doing isn’t interesting. Why don’t you try something else?

You either have that fire inside you (the 1%), or you don't (the 99%).

If you don't, and you can't figure out how to light it, don't bother trying. Sounds harsh, but in all reality you'll just be wasting your time.

I find being self-employed motivation in and of itself. No work no shekels. If I was a normal wagecuck I'd just hide in the bathroom and sleep all day.

Take a second work to remember how it stinks to work for other people

I focus on the money and set goals. Also give yourself a reward to work towards. For example I like to travel to at least one exotic location a year, so I obviously need money for that, and that drives me to do more work.

If you have to force yourself then deep inside you simply don't want to make more money and are happy in your comfort zone. Or you are just working the wrong niche that doesn't satisfy you mentally.

If you do proper advertising and marketing (invest in it) they will come.
