Getting back your passion

Self-employed and unmotivated? Here are tips that may help you rediscover your enthusiasm

Q: For the past couple of years I've been freelancing. But I've been losing my enthusiasm for it. How can I put the spark back in?

A: Now may be the time to take stock of your options and consider your vision for the next phase of your career.

In order to figure out if it still works for you, do a brief retrospective on how you ended up a freelancer.

Many people land there after a downsizing or as a result of some level of dissatisfaction or problem at work. For others, it can be a handy solution to a desire for more flexibility.

The problem is that, often, if you are going away from an unsuitable situation, you are not making an active choice toward something.

Next, reflect on aspects of your current professional life that you particularly like and those you don't care for.

Also think about what's missing. Don't worry about what you think you "should" like; be as honest as you can.

You can then prioritize so that minor annoyances don't loom larger than they deserve. Then, if you still have a genuine passion for the actual work you do, it can re-emerge.
