 Heart-felt Motivation How do you have heart-felt motivation when it's not necessarly a heart-felt activity? For example I'm taking summer classes right now and I'm having a little trouble finding some good motivation. Yes the motivation of succeeding and bettering my skills at that area helps...but it's seems to only work for so long...how do I develop deeper motivation in that area?      |

| In my experiences, most of the time I only feel heart-felt motivation when I'm working in my core area - when I'm mainly doing anything having to do with creativity (for example, working on my blog). Some tasks aren't fun to do, that's when self-discipline seriously makes up for the lack of heart-felt motivation.

| It has happened to me at times. When I am say, studying for my final exams and probably a few days before the exams start, I kinda get motivated to do really well. That doesn't however happen because I want to score great marks, but because I start studying and then I understand all that I study and feel even more excited and motivated to keep continuing in this manner. But once I find something difficult to understand, I lose that motivation. But, I think it has probably to do with the desire to succeed in something which you really really want.
