How do I get motivated and stay motivated?

Shoot. I know the answer. I knew it right AFTER I typed the question. It's ridiculously simple but I swear it's hard as hell all the same. All one has to do in order to get motivated and stay that way is identify the goal they wish to attain and then seek out a support system associated with achieving that goal. Weight Watchers for people who want to lose weight. Alcoholics Anonymous for folks who want to stop drinking. Overspenders Anonymous or some other such financial assistance organisation for those who wish to control their debt and spending. All I need is a collective of artists and writers dedicated to visualising and manifesting an artistic vision. a person alone is a dreamer but a group is a force to be reckoned with. Even if they are only reckoning with inertia and laziness.
