This thing called "motivation".

I remember while I was sitting through some class, my lecturer mentioned this:

There is actually no such thing called "motivation". Yet there are so many people seeking for it as well as getting paid for teaching ways of creating it or getting back that drive. What "motivation" really is, is actually your will power - whether or not you want to do it. This thing called "motivation" wouldn't come, if you do not want to do something; or perhaps, it wouldn't even exist if you do not start doing something you want to be driven to do.

I also remember how surprised I was when she mentioned this, which turned out to be extremely factual. In that instant, it felt as if some light shone on me - a sudden AH-HA moment.

Things in life doesn't just come to you, really. You have to take that very first step, and slowly you'll learn and gain.

Of course, those are words we always hear and know about.
However, do you truly feel and understand those words?

I never did.
Not until I was told about this thing, called "motivation".
