Success is the outcome of persistent discipline clubbed with dedication, hardworking and the will of achieving it. Success is the thing which keeps a person awake in the night, fresh after long hours and smiling after a failed try. On the other hand motivation is the feeling that drives a person to become successful If success is a destination, motivation is the driver.
If I know about success or if anyone knows about it, even you my reader, we sure have faced endless trying and failing. And the one thing that keeps us doing it again is nothing but the motivation. To me, I learned about motivation from the video games, especially there are two instance where you may have played, failed and tried so many times that you can't recall. One instance is from Gta San Andreas helicopter toy mission, GTA VICE CITY helicopter mission. These two missions were so hard to complete, that it took me years to finally come across it. If you know any gamer of GTA franchise ask them about these missions and you will get to know about it.
These thing tells us that success is inevitable if you don't stop trying. Motivation is one aspect but it should always be coming from your inside. Depending on the motivation from any outside sources will lead you nowhere. If you want to do something that should come from inside.
I only motivate myself to become disciplined, dedicated to my work. I don't do work on motivation instead i motivate myself to cultivate the qualities that is needed to be successful. For example if someone challenges you to read a book, you can read one book or max two books but if you motivated yourself to keep reading instead of counting books then my friend you are seeking a long term success and you will derive it out. And this is because your motivation doesn't gets excited only from the outside triggers but it is you who control it as well. I always seek qualities that is needed to do a work. If i am doing work just because someone said it, challenged it then I am not doing it as per motivation, I am doing it because I got influenced to do it.
So for long term or life long success build your own motivation, bring your own reasons, make your own will. If you do because something has happened outside, it is influence not motivation. A thing made with the adequate quality lasts longer.
Making yourself disciplined, hardworking, dedicating is a tough job and that is why it lasts longer. If I motivate myself to do the work in front of me then once the work is done motivation is lost and then I will be not passionate enough if there is no motivation I am getting. Hence, I motivate myself for the things which are harder to acquire, so that one day I become someone's motivation. Role model is a kind of external motivation, do we get chance to talk to our role model? No then what we follow in them? It is their qualities. And the people who motivate themselves for higher goals don't get distracted easily and performs such activities that make them ever greening personalities.
So become the motivation itself instead of seeking motivation. You can lead a pack! Which is more than just a success.
