In the 'naruto neglected by his mother fanfiction', Naruto may have a different approach to his ninja training. Instead of being motivated by the desire to be recognized like in the original story, it could be a way for him to escape from the pain of his mother's neglect. He might train harder and more recklessly, putting himself in danger because he doesn't really care about his own well - being as much, since he feels so unloved at home.
He'd likely be more bitter. Naruto in the original is so positive despite his hardships. But with motherly neglect, he could be cynical. He might not trust people as easily and could be more guarded.
In fanfiction, Naruto might show his love for his mother through his memories. He could constantly recall the little time he had with her. For example, he might remember any advice or lullabies she gave him.

Well, it could make him more desperate to catch up. He might become more self - doubting at first. But then, as he realizes his mistake, he could develop a stronger sense of determination to overcome his lack of training. For example, he might start training in more unorthodox ways to make up for lost time.

By doing these things, he gradually shows that he is not someone to be neglected.
