It can be hard to stay motivated in any profession, but rideshare drivers have it particularly rough. The holiday season is extremely busy for drivers, so they are always busy in November and December. When January comes, the holidays are behind us, and winter is just getting started. Rideshare drivers spend a lot of time in their cars with new people all the time. Staying motivated can be difficult, but it’s all about finding what is right for you and your career.
If you have a tendency to drive during a specific time of day in a specific area, maybe it is time to use the New Year as an excuse to change things up a bit. Try driving in a new area. You might find you really enjoy the new type of people, the vibe, or the scenery. You might dislike it and be content with what you have. Time of day can dictate everything from type of person, their moods, their destinations, and more. If you’re tired of the same old same old, try a new routine.
Remind yourself of why you’re behind the wheel. Sometimes the answer is as simple as, I need money or I’m saving for a trip to Bali. Either option is amazing. Focusing on your goals and the reasons behind your actions can put a new pep in your step and appreciate every passenger paying for your vehicle and services.
Making a game out of something as mundane as your work can make the days go by faster. Try and learn something interesting or unique about every person who enters your car. Create a long and detailed back story for every person who is rude to you while you are driving them around. Share fun factoids with every passenger you’ve picked up as a way to teach, learn, and get the conversation started.
Take some time off. Not everyone has this luxury, but if you can do it. Taking time off for even just a day can make a huge difference in a person’s mental health. January is often a very slow month after Christmas; taking a day or two off could keep you from driving around waiting for someone to need you.
The act of listening to upbeat of fast tempo music can help keep your spirits and energies high as the day goes by and people need a little festivities in their life. You could be the last person they see all day, and you want them to leave your car happier than when they came in. It also helps keep you alert and engaged while on the road.

take up a hobby to do while you are idling, for example coloring or knitting.
Lionel Messi coloring pages are incredibly varied and popular, and they come in a wide range of difficulty levels, from easy to challenging. Young children who are still developing their fine motor skills can start with simple coloring sheets featuring Messi juggling a ball or posing in his Barcelona or Argentina uniform. These coloring pages are typically drawn in bold, black outlines, making it easier for young children to color them in. These easy coloring pages are great for toddlers, preschool-age kids, and even adults who simply want to relax and unwind.
