Motivation Is Overrated

  • Motivation is fleeting. Remember how that coffee and push-ups made you active? You probably had to repeat it to be motivated again.
  • What you need to search for is drive and discipline. Sometimes when obstacles get in the way of our plans we easily give up. You have 1 hour for the gym but you finished your work late? Instead of completely not doing it, just do some push-ups somewhere, it doesn't have to be in the gym. You can sweat anywhere. Just get it done. Just show up.
  • Know what you want, why you want it, and work your bum every single day to achieve it.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug
