No, bro, you don't want motivation. Motivation sucks. You don't want to be motivated because motivation's fleeting. You want to be driven. Motivation is like. Motivation is like a spark. But drive and being driven is like that big log that's on the campfire that burns for hours. If you're searching for motivation every single morning to get up and do something with your life, you've already lost the battle. You want to wake up, and you want to be driven. So. So then everybody says, well, how do you. How do you get yourself driven towards something? You have to have a strong why. If you want something, why the fuck do you want it? What are you working towards, and why are you working towards that goal? It has to be something that is really important, that is outside of you. It can be your. Your children. It could be your community. It could be your mom and dad, whatever it is. Because when your why is strong enough, the how to get it done will reveal itself. How to get off your butt and how to get it done becomes so much easier when you have a really strong why.
