Motivation

Self-motivation is easy if you train yourself to love the journey of discovery, learning, and creating.

Do a thing because you get inherent satisfaction from doing that thing.

Avoid complexity and simplify your purpose. Simplicity of purpose makes it easier to obtain happiness and motivation each day, every day.

Learning takes long-term commitment, discipline and resolve. If you don't enjoy the process, chances are you won't stick with it over the long term.

It is good to have long-term goals but if you are only concerned with the end result you risk sabotaging your motivation during the long and grinding process of getting there.

Be motivated by each day of progress and discovery. Sometimes progress is masked as a setback -- that's ok.

Motivation is all about the long term sustainability of your energy so deriving happiness from the day-to-day journey is essential.

Humility

Your journey will not be perfect.

Everything is a work in progress.

The primary goal is to start and keep going, optimizations and efficiencies will come later.

Start small and derive happiness from each and every day.

Overconcern with end-goals will only sabotage today's motivation.

Keep going.

Love

Do a thing because you love doing the thing.

Every day you do the thing will be a day of happiness.

Success will come, in one form or another.

Trust yourself
