Success as we know it, is the accomplishment of an aim or purpose. When consistent effort is applied to a defined purpose, we increase our chances of success at anything.

Applying consistent effort to any cause will require a lot of determination and discipline — and this is where motivation comes in.

Motivation is the reason we act or behave in a particular way. It’s that emotional spark that drives us with the needed desire to achieve anything we want. Motivation can give you 2 important things;

  1. the willingness to start something, and
  2. the enthusiasm to stick to that cause, especially when the going gets tough.

If you’ve got big goals to achieve, great aspirations for the future, or perhaps, just a modest list of undone tasks all lined up for you on your to-do-list like a pretty steak kebab, then you’re definitely going to need some motivation to get you through them.

Think of your dream as a cute Rolls-Royce Ghost Automobile and think of motivation as the gas that propels this vehicle to move.

No-gas, No-movement.
