MOTIVATION IS HIGHLY OVERRATED

 4031

As a counselor I have often told my clients that "Motivation is highly overrated." For you see, motivation depends on feelings. I know this teaching wouldn't be popular among motivational speakers who attempt to "whip the crowd up" to induce them to do one thing or another. 

But motivation is, in essence, only a feeling. And if you wait 'til you feel motivated, you may be 103. And, my friends, you simply can't wait for a particular feeling.

Forget motivation. Forget feelings. Make a (good) decision and follow through with it.
