Don’t ask what you need to do in order to stay motivated.
Don’t wonder what’s missing when you can’t find the inspiration to do the hard things.
The hard truth about inspiration is that if your goal is big enough and meaningful enough, you’ll stay motivated.
If it matters, what you do will matter to you. It’s that simple.
If what you’re doing doesn’t deeply matter you’ll find yourself “burned out” and looking for new ways to get inspired and reignite your passion.
In all honesty, you probably weren’t really burning in the first place.
You were excited. You were hopeful. But you won’t really burning.
You weren’t on fire. Inflamed. Explosively propelled towards greatness.
The passion of the moment fooled you.
Now you’re left gasping for air, looking for fuel, wondering what you need to do to get back on track.
The answer is all the way at the beginning. Where thing started.
The moment you decided you wanted to change in the first place. That’s where you need to go. That’s where you’ll find the answer to your inspiration. Think back to why you’re doing what you’re doing in the first place. What deeply personal reason drives you? What difference will this change make in your life? Don’t just think about. Obsess about it. Every day. Every hour of the day. Let it inflame your will and fire your resolve. Maybe the reason you’re struggling to stay inspired is that you we’re never on fire in the first place.
