Motivation ?

I get bored of 1 project too easily , therefore I have too many WIPS :)
any tips or tricks to help get you through a long project ?

I stick to very small patterns because if I cant finish it really quick, I never finish it :D

Some of these patterns are just amazing, but I know I could never finish one. :lol

Currently I have one big project and plenty of small ones. But I force myself to make my way through the large one by saying, Im only allowed to work on my small pieces if i finish one page of my big project. In that way it keeps me motivated to keep working!

I just ended small project that I started two years ago. Maybe it was not the right time then to finish it.
So, sometimes I think to put aside something that is not going fluently is the right decision. But sometimes. I have such project. It is laying aside for almost 10 years.

I cannot stitch one project a time, to not get bored of a project i must stitch many different ones at the same time, thats my "secret". Anyway i usually stith a big project along with many small ones

Hi, I guess Im different then... I can only do 1 project at a time as I concentrate pretty good and its hard to distract me. Then I will move on to the next. The maximum projects I could ever do at the same time were 2. In return I need inspiration everyday and thats why I always on the quest of searching for something new - new designer, new pattern, pictures etc...

I do all the boring projects while binge watching TV show. Last week I finished 2 pullovers with Good Wife :)
If I need to watch my needles instead of TV, I listen cozy mystery audio books. Louise Pennys Inspector Gamache is my favorite nowadays.

I make a list and I allow myself one finish,  one new project.   I have also rotated my projects, which I really enjoyed, one project for one or two evenings then I moved to the next project for the next couple of evenings.  
At least all of the projects were being worked on during the week and I did finish several with this method.   I do find that you have to be super organized with a set space to keep the projects in between shifts in projects.
The only items I left out at my stitching station was my scissors, stitching light and glasses, all the different projects were on trays.

I love finding a good audio book on youtube while I stitch!
