Is your goal to become an airline pilot? If so, I think you might want to re-evaluate whether this is what you really want. It is a very long road and losing motivation during your private isn't a good start. This may be due to the instructor or school or whatever but this should be some of the most exciting times. It took me 15 years from my first flight to making it to my dream job at a Legacy. Many challenges along the way and many random jobs to afford the flight training. The last 13 years have been tough for everyone in the industry and hopefully your road won't be this long but what will you do if it is? I have seen a lot of guys quit along the way because they couldn't find the motivation to continue. The one thing that kept me going was that each time I got in the plane I knew I didn't want to do anything else. I really love my job and would do it again. Flying was my motivation and what got me through all of the studying, check rides, and years of crappy overnight hotels at the regional airline. Again, not trying to rip you but if the flying isn't enough to motivate you then you might think of doing something else...good luck with whatever you choose.
