Do you think killing your emotions our simply stop caring about anything will help you get motivated?. Cause right now I feel like I don't care about anything in life and I feel super motivated right now. And yah I realize this doesn't make any sense but I'm still curious.

Whatever works, works. I bury my emotions all the time. But for other reasons. XD

Emotions are evil and just hold us back.......let me explain
Happiness is an Illusion just to hold back the sadness for later
Sadness is just something that builds up anger
Anger is a power that brings hate
And hate is a feeling that brings destruction
But no emotions can bring about true peace

Motivation is brought on by desire and I'd count that as an emotion.

I'm rather intrigued by this question actually. Put simply, no. For me, I always get writers block when I'm experiencing apathy.
That said, a neutral emotional "Balance" (which shouldn't be seen as a lack of emotions) is generally where I tend to be when I get motivated to do something. Of course the formula for writer's inspiration is a bit different, considering I need to have that balance, then start to tap into a slight sense of frustration, have a craving for a certain type of story, and have a sense of delightful wonder for a new idea all at once.
But seriously, like I said, I'm kinda intrigued by the concept of motivation through apathy. I don't suppose you could elaborate on your situation, Kakashe. If its not too personal of course.

I cant really do it, I need all my emotions in order to narrate my tales.
I got to be able to feel the whole espectrum, happiness,sadness, everything or Im unable to write.
