Motivation and Inspiration

I keep waiting for motivation and inspiration to hit me like a ton of bricks. That’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.

Motivation is like momentum that jump-starts an old car. You have to get out and push and then momentum can do its thing to get you motivated.

This starts with you making that decision to move—taking that first step regardless of whether you feel like it or not. You have to go out and get inspiration and motivation—it seldom just shows up on your doorstep and knocks. You have to track it down and hunt it like a trophy buck. The thrill of success in something you pushed yourself for—that’s motivation.

That’s inspiring.
