    Default how do you motivate yourself to go to work, when you're in a sucky mood?

    ok, i'm sure everyone here has had this experience many times...alot of nights i find i'm just in a lazy mood, i don't feel like being sexy, and i don't feel like socializing. on nights like this i never make any money, obviously. so how do you girls motivate yourself to work on nights like this? what do you do before going into work, or while you're there to get your energy pumping and make you feel better?

    I look at the stack of bills I have to pay and remind myself that I am doing this to earn my psychology degree. It usually helps me to remind myself that I am dancing as a means to an end. I always have my goals in mind. Not to mention my two kids.....

    Clear my brain. Completely and entirely. As simple as it may sound, it's not. But it works! I just think of absolutely nothing when I walk through the door. All I think about is the minimal conversation I have to have with people, "Hi. Would you like some company? What's your name? Are you from here? No? Where are you from? What do you do?" etc.
    Also, listening to happy music before I leave the house seems to help me. Stuff that makes me wanna stripper-dance in my bedroom.

    Remember how many stacks of twenty dollar bills you are taking home for three to five minutes of dancing for a guy and how much that could add up to over a year's time.

    .....Put on some 'mood' music. Something that brings a smile to your face.

    .....Take a hot bubble bath/shower

    .....Spend a little time extra time on yourself.

    ......Think of the green

    And then go out there and strut it

    For a long time, on nights like that, I just wouldn't go to work. I didn't take my job seriously and was often flaky, thinking it wasn't a "real" job and therefore didn't require me to act as if it was. Then I took a good look at my life and realized that I was not just flaky in the work department, but that it was reaching into other areas of my life too. So I decided that even though stripping is not condoned by everyone, it still is a real job and I should treat it as such. (I mean, I'm making real money there.) That meant not being late and not skipping out just cuz I didn't feel like going. It made a big difference.

    i love prince....i love the song pussy control, i listen to it alot before going to work. i often find that if i take my time getting ready i feel better, if i'm rushed i'm always in a yucky mood and don't feel sexy at all.

    we all have days when the thought of work just makes us sick. For me, i try to slip into my role... the character, "Belle" that I have created. I think to myself, "what's making me feel shitty or unmotivated right now are feelings that I have.... Belle doesn't feel that way and she's ready to take these boys' money!" so, basically "becoming" this persona usually helps me to regain focus on why I am even at work in the first place...

    Sometimes I try to get my self going by making a game out of it. For instance, one night when I wasn't in the mood at all, I decided to just go up to guys using this really ridiculous British accent I just made up to see their reactions (I figured "I'm not in the mood to work anyway, might as well have a little fun"). Well, it wasn't long before every guy wanted to know where I was from and what was my story and giving me money just to sit and listen to me talk etc. Sometimes I'll just make up a story about myself to keep myself entertained - it usually works well enough to get people interested in me so I can get some momentum going and it's fun.

    Since I'm moving again, I just look at cool furnishing catalogs when I feel discouraged. mmm... there's this lovely leather sectional sofa I can see in my living room ...It makes me more excited to meet my goal for that night. It's even working thinking about it right now!
