It takes a lot to work 3rd shift and it does mess with your internal clock which (in my experience) affects motivation and energy. Plus it's hard to break routine. I know when I get in a rut of not going out then it gets harder and harder to leave my house. So I force myself out for lunch with friends or even just to go to the grocery store. It helps but then I fall back into old habits. Good luck to you and establishing a new routine.

You might check out Shift Work Disorder. It can also affect motivation and energy.
