| Aug 21, 2014 at 2:48 | comment | added | Nate Eldredge | I've edited the title to distinguish personal motivation from mathematical motivation, i.e. the mathematical reasons why a certain question should be of interest. (It would certainly be interesting to know where one can go to find the latter, but that doesn't seem to be what's being asked.) | |

If those answers don't satisfy you, you could consider a new question there, but keep in mind that we at Academia.SE are not agony aunts either. | |

| Aug 20, 2014 at 22:46 | comment | added | vic | @guest: This is a good point. Often the other way around (as you are pointing out) is the case. In this case, I'd like to focus on exactly what is written in the question (but I would welcome a discussion on the converse). | |
| Aug 20, 2014 at 22:45 | comment | added | guest | Are you sure the discouragement and lack of motivation are the causes and not the effects of lack of productivity? | |
