Hey brother I know that pain of getting a required paper done! In gaining my MS in Organizational Leadership, I had to dig deep to write the many papers required. Like you mentioned, I found it easiest to approach the paper from an attitude of enjoyment/passion.

I'm a bit confused on just where you are seeking help? Motivation to just get in and get it done? Help on defining a topic/thesis? I think I can help you with both; just let me know!
