Why You Should NOT Be Motivated To Achieve Your Goals
And what you should do instead
Imagine, for a moment, the thrill of chasing success, fueled by a firecracker of motivation that lights up your entire being.
Now, imagine that firecracker fizzling out on a rainy Tuesday when the couch looks more appealing than your to-do list.
Welcome to the reality where motivation, that fickle friend, promises the world but often leaves us stranded in the land of unfinished projects and “I’ll do it tomorrow.”
What if we didn’t need to succeed after all?
The Myth of Motivation
Picture motivation as that dazzling unicorn of emotions — glittering, inspiring, and, unfortunately, entirely made of smoke and mirrors.
(Well I shouldn’t say that since I live in Scotland where it’s the official national animal 🦄)
It’s like that friend who’s the life of the party, promising you adventures and grand achievements, but mysteriously vanishes the moment you need help moving your sofa up three flights of stairs.
