Working on my own, from home, is really tough to stay motivated, and to keep the distractions of "home life" from seeping in. I've personally found that having at least a min/max goal of things you want done for the day is a good start - even when you don't meet them, they still help. Especially when you partner with a close friend or acquaintance that also is full time in the microstock game. My buddy Matt from www.niltomil.com have done this occasion. Our goals are never the same, but just sharing them with each other and checking back later in the day to hear each other's progress is a great alternative to having a boss that's cracking the whip on you :) This is so very true – without someone cracking the whip, it’s very tough.

It really helps to have a like minded partner who can help you out in difficult times. Nice to hear about your partnership.

I'm terribly flattered, but really my inspiration comes from making those (including Rasmus, who is my Man-Muse) happy, whether it be a bouquet of fresh herbs, a tray of baked goodies, a share of my cooking experiments... it all comes down to doing what you love and sharing it with everyone around you. The bounce back of happiness/gratitude is just as inspiring as it is rewarding.
