People have always said that things work in the following manner:

Motivation → Perseverance → Results

But it is a big lie.

In reality, things work in the following way:

Perseverance → Results → Motivation → Perseverance → Results

You know that writing consistently will bring you good things.

Do not wait to feel motivated to do it.

Start doing it now.

Let the results force you to do it steadily. May your results give you the motivation you need.

If there are no results, try harder.

Be aware not to deceive yourself.

There are no results without perseverance.

There is no motivation without results.

Publish persistently until you find the required motivation.

That is the way things are.
