Why I Stopped Chasing Motivation (And What I Do Instead)
For most of my twenties, I chased motivation the way people chase quick success. I’d watch endless motivational videos, read self-improvement quotes, and tell myself that tomorrow I’d finally start being productive. Tomorrow, I’d wake up early, crush my goals, and live like the people in those inspiring montages. But tomorrow rarely came. And when it did, I felt the same lack of drive, the same resistance, the same craving for another dose of motivation to get going.
