Hi Steve - nice post,
Although I haven't read all your articles on dark and lightworkers, I still got something from this read. I think your article is more about
finding true happiness than about movtivation, at least from my perspective.
Your post got me thinking about the natural balance of self vs others, or in your words, darkworker vs lightworker.
For many years there was a time when I was a darkworker. I focused all my time, energy and action into providng things for myself. I thought that this was the only way that I could be happy.
Later in highschool I began tutoring kids in math and realized there was another side to being happy. I realized that I could be just as happy by contributing to others WHILE satisfying my own need to teach. I think this is what your post is saying. That is, to be truly happy is a balance of contribute to others while satisfying your own needs.
Cheers,
