When you get in a tight place and everything goes against you,

till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer,

never give up then, for that is just the place and time

that the tide will turn.

- Harriet Beecher Stowe

 

Most of us have two lives. The life we live,

and the unlived life within us.

Between the two stands Resistance.

Resistance cannot be seen, touched,

heard, or smelled. But it can be felt.

Late at night have you experienced a

vision of the person you might become,

the work you could accomplish,

the realized being you were mean to be?

Are you a writer, who doesn't write?

a painter who doesn't paint,

an entrepreneur who never starts a venture?

Then you know what Resistance is.

- Steven Pressfield

The difference between those who achieve

and those who merely dream is doing what you should do,

when you should do it, whether you want to or not.

Lack of reason. Lack of why this must be done.

Lack of motivation comes from lack of consequence.

Lack of penalty. Lack of pain if you don’t.

Lack of motivation comes from lack of certainty.

Lack of assurance. Lack of knowing the result.

Lack of motivation comes from lack of drive.

Lack of push. Lack of acceleration toward the goal.

- Paul B. Evans
