What is motivation?
In the general sense, motivation is the desire and the will do want to to something. It could also be a reason or a stimulus for why you react or respond in a certain way. In your life, there may be things that drive you to act like people or circumstances, but the best motivation of all is the motivation that comes from within. This is called Intrinsic Motivation and if you want to live a life where you are able to obtain the results you want and realize success, it is important to have your main source of motivation be from within.
What causes lack of motivation?
There are things that cause a lack of motivation such as depression, laziness, neurotransmitters that you have trained through your prior behaviors to reward your lack of drive, and more.
In my latest video, I have 4 top reasons that I see in my coaching practice that may help you figure out the real reason why you may have a lack of motivation.
Why is staying motivated so hard?
Again, watch the video. It will touch on a bit of this, but the number one reason that I see that makes motivation so hard is a true lack of vision and purpose coupled with idealistic strategies to achieve your vision and purpose.. You may think that you want something but when you get down to the root of the goal or objective you choose, you may find that it does not provide a compelling enough desire for you to pursue it… NO MATTER WHAT.
Secondly, in my practice, I see that those that are extrinsically motivated generally struggle with staying motivated.
