Loss of Work Motivation

I started a new job about 2 weeks ago. It was an unexpected change, as I wasn't planning on looking to make a move until after the baby was born. Turns out my old employer didn't offer maternity leave pay supplementation, so there was no point in putting myself through the misery of staying there. I had lunch with a competitor and received an offer letter the next day.

 My new company went in with eyes wide open about the pregnancy and have been really supportive and excited to have me on board. What I didn't expect? My complete lack of motivation! It's seems so daunting... the process of putting in all the calls and work to build up my business at this firm. Ugh. I need to snap out of this and remind myself that the window is short for me to build up momentum before this baby girl is born.

 Someone slap me!

  • I'm in the same boat! I make my own schedule so it's hard for me to get going if I don't have any set appointments. Good luck hopefully we'll get our focus back soon!
