If we want to work on something, start a business, engage in some activities, or build a habit, we need motivations to fuel us on our journey. People do things for some purpose, and finding our strong purpose can drastically increase our motivation.

If we don’t mindfully seek our purpose, we tend to let our emotions take over our actions. These are the example:

  • We did something because the society told us so
  • We did something because we wanted to make everyone happy
  • We did something for instant gratification
  • We did something just because other people were doing it
  • We did something just because it is the norm

I did not say that you can’t do things for those reasons, nor do I say it is evil, but I do believe that the strongest motivation is the one that you put your thought on it based on things that you value the most.
