Motivation or Lack of Motivation?

What does it take to find the motivation in myself? People can inspire you but they can not motivate you. Motivation comes from some where inside of each and every one of us. Someone can inspire me to go to the gym and workout but I have to find the motivation to do it and keep doing it.

I found these assumptions in “The Eighth Habit” and it makes sense with what I’m struggling with.

For the Body – assume you’ve had a heart attack; now live accordingly.

For the Mind – assume the half-life of your profession is two years; now prepare
accordingly.

For the Heart - assume everything you say about another, they can overhear; now speak accordingly.

For the Spirit - assume you have a one-on-one visit with your Creator every quarter; now live accordingly.

I have hit some bumps in the road; however I have to keep the motivation high to
keep going further physically. I am committed to creating a new me both inside
and out. I want my exterior to match my interior. I will be attractive to someone
that will recognize the gift they have in front of them.
