[EDIT]

Thank you Darius for nailing down energy and focus as the two engines to fly at high level when it comes to true motivation : Intrinsic motivation.

I use two things to feed my motivation and my energy.

Often we think that we need to have motivation, then we feel inspired and finally we act.
Yet it is the other way around. Hence the A. I. M framework : Action first, then Inspiration and finally Motivation.
Start with Action, then inspiration will bridge you to your motivation.

Why is it important to start with Action?

Because of the dichotomy of control. By acting, we are in the realm of the things within our control /influence.

Then, when it comes to Energy, we got it also the other way around.

Most people today are driven by the shiny object syndrom. They will chase money because they think that it will make them happy.
In their quest only for money, they will lose time and energy.
They might get lucky and get money after their retirement. Now they don't have the energy to enjoy that money.

Money is the base of the pyramid of life. In the middle is time. At the top reigns Energy.
Most of us chase the base level of the above pyramid.
Aim at protecting your daily bucket of energy and replenishing it.
Stay away from energy vampires and find ways to re-energize your daily bucket.

Energy, Focus and Action are your triumvirate.

You will be an unstoppable force. No matter the immovable object before you, you will prevail.

Thank you again Darius. 💯🤎💕
