Motivation.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
People talk about motivation so much it’s annoying. Coaches and speakers talk about it all. the. time. You don’t need another source do you? But here’s a different take…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two parts to motivation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The actual hype that gives you energy<\/strong>. This is stuff like music that makes you excited to do the task.<\/li>
The thing you are motivated to go towards.<\/strong> The carrot, the pat on the back, the imagined feelings, all that stuff.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
