What is motivation — an essay
From Newton’s Laws to Human Motivation
In order to accomplish a task, a goal, a purpose, a mission.
Let’s start with Newton’s quote, you are either at rest or in motion.
To be more precise, Newton mentioned this.
Any object at rest stays at rest unless some force acts upon it.
Any object in motion stays in motion unless something acts upon it.
But then, how can an object at rest become an object in motion?
The answer: Energy.
For an object to be in motion, energy must be applied to it.
Let’s try to apply this law to human beings.
For a human being to be in motion, they need energy, to produce this energy they need to eat and nourish their brain so that it can live and operate their body.
But what happens when a human sets a goal, a task, and is unable to accomplish it.
You’re going to tell me they just have to eat and they will have the necessary energy to accomplish their task.
But that doesn’t work because some humans eat and still can’t accomplish what they want, but why is that so?
