Guys, have you ever felt like you are unmotivated even if you try so hard to do the best but still people do not appreciate what you've been done to them?
I feel this way every time I got complain, I'm not saying I can’t handle this feeling but as a human I feel bad if what we've done on accomplish things is unappreciated.
How do we keep motivated in this situation?

Oh, I feel you. I feel the same, many times I feel like giving up but just because I need to support her schools and also I'm a single mom, so I always hide this feeling from her every time she asks me ” are you, okay Mom?” That's hurt me but only this that I can do

Happens to the best of us. Acknowledge on how you feel and what triggers it but learn to move on from it.

I don`t mind those negative complainer because I know I am not perfect and I want to see if those negative feedback is somehow helps me to improve.

I'm a person that can self-motivate. I don't need the approval or praise of others. I do what I want to do regardless of whether I'm appreciated or not. I'm a believer in God and in the power of prayer. If God approves of what I do then I'm as happy as I can be.

It doesn't always work but I try to shift my focus on whoever would appreciate what I've been doing instead. It could be a higher being, or my own conscience. 
The difficult thing is to stay true to ourselves and not let what others think "dictate" what we think too.

You got the point. It's difficult to stay true. Sometimes when I feel sick and tired I just ignore them, coz no matter how good I accomplish things, they always don't like it. I put on my mind that I'm not here on this planet for them to love or like what I did, as long as what I'm doing is right, I kept going. And that's the hard part to deal

There are very few in this world whose work gets appreciated be it in the family, among friends and wherever. I am used to be not being appreciated but the joy I get when I achieve something more than compensates

You're right. What I've learned, people are people. No matter how good we are, there's always have something that they don't like. Back to your opinion, I would like to say there's always have something that we will achieve from others

I agree with you and it's a normal feeling for a human being. I just let it go slowly so it doesn't take over my life.

Hi there! If you would try to check my first discussion here in myLot, it sounded like this. And it's work related. By that time, I came up with the decision of quiting my job. Now, I'm counting down the days left before I'll leave my corporate job and start to work on a new path.
