Motivation

True motivation shouldn’t be empty peptalk. True motivation should be an achievable roadmap followed by implementation.

Although motivation is the first spark needed to initiate change and improvement; empty-motivation, which is often a strong positive-sounding and often chest-pounding peptalk does not and will not yield any results.

In order for motivation to be effective, motivation must be based on how factual-reality is and not based on how we emotionally want reality to be.

Furthermore, motivation must have defined parameters such as goals, and even sometimes dreams, with a well thought-out reality-based roadmap as to how to get to the goal of what the motivation is being activated for.

This is why baseless peptalk and shot-in-the-arm motivation rarely yields results, but it more commonly yields to disappointments and withdrawals. In order for motivation to yield results, we must learn to change how we think.
