There’s so much to say about this topic. Lack of motivation is common. Why are the majority of adults obese (and discontent)? Self help: Think of cycling as your drug (as opposed to alcohol, we all need dopamine); it’s your me time; it’s healthy for you now and in the long run; it clears your mind of stress and negative thought patterns; carve out the number of time blocks you can do per week and stick to it - don’t budge on your commitment; think of your bike time in terms of time blocks, forget wattage numbers and mileage; find rout(s) you enjoy the most and stick to those (avoid traffic); periodically treat yourself to some new gear for the bike; always remember why you enjoy cycling - the freedom and escape from the daily grind it affords!
