Motivation is Overrated

60+ minute run today. Approximately 6 miles.

Too often we wait until we are inspired to get things done. Waiting for that moment of inspiration, that moment when we finally feel that push to do the work. In reality, that motivation is overrated. Quite simply, all that matters is that we do the work. Period. Interestingly, I would posit, is that the more we do it when we don't want to, the less frequently those occasions come. Or, perhaps, we simply don't experience it as strongly, because we know we'll do it anyway. Regardless, ditch motivation. Cultivate discipline.
