It was a great help to read your article, and the comments. I’m a believer in motivation and discipline. If there were no negatives attached to the things we do, we would all follow all our motivations effortlessly. So there are two choices when struggle to do something that is hard for us, build up our motivation or ignore the negatives that make it hard. Remember many soldiers don’t consider why they want to do what they are doing. They do their job out of habit and training. Mostly they ignore any obstacle in their way and get the job done.

In civilian life, when we are guiding our own course, knowing our motivations is indispensable. I like your approach to start, but once I’ve built up a strength, I don’t need to focus on motivation any more.

Excellent post once again. Your posts always make me think and give me good thoughts each day to continue to renew my brain.
I believe that the toughest thing for most people is to have a high level of motivation in all phases of their life. So, find a purpose in your life and when you do – Live fearlessly. – Paul

Oh Leo, you’ve done it again!

You have created an awesome post which produces three major actions. The # 1 important one for me is that you write about what is already in my head and then gives my body things I can do to make changes I need. I love that.

# 2 is that you have created a post that generates “feelings” and “thoughts” on both sides and that makes for interesting reading of all comments.

# 3 is that you have created a post that gets such a huge response from people demonstrating your large fan base.

This Zen post shall join the others I have printed and stuck on my wall. I call it my Zen Zone.
