Motivation in 2021

Here is the thing, Motivation is the key to everything! Without motivation there is no drive, no fire, no ambition, no excitement…No reason to even have goals.

Here is the thing though, motivation shows up in so many different ways in our lives.  Whether it be great motivation or lack of motivation.  It is a part of every decision that we make…no, really every single one.   It seems like we don’t give motivation all the credit it deserves.  It gets defined as either bad…no motivation, or good…very motivated.  But what about everything in between.  Let’s look more carefully at this…There are as many definitions of motivation in the different dictionaries as there are fast food restaurants.  But if you take the gist of all of them it simply comes down to this.  “The reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way.”  

Everything that we do each day is a choice and to determine which choice A or B and sometimes C or D we have to process a decision.  Each decision is based upon the outcome of what each choice will result in.  The outcome can be dictated by several things depending upon…oh, wait, here it comes, what the motivation is.
