How do you motivate yourself? At primemaths.com we are 50% through with our questions (around 200 done so-far) but I have been struggling this week to add more to the database. Besides, the weather is not helping . All I can think of is a cold beer and a deck chair
There are two types of motivation Wilfred, there is third party praise which is actually pretty worthless and there is self determination.
Third party praise is when others compliment you on success or perceived success, many get quite addicted to needing to feel that others are providing that praise and shift their goals from real success to something I would call "value" success where in the extremes you borrow to impress.
Self determination is very different, you starve to succeed, you work so hard and don't wish to be in the limelight.

Does that help?
Seriously though I think it's crucial you have 'lazy' days or half days. I find this can help you then find new energy the next day and you just go for it.
Can you not work outside in the sun on a laptop or something?
