Internal Motivation

The simple truth is that to be successful at anything you must be internally motivated.

The outside world simply provides such random and sporadic feedback that you can't count on it to keep you inspired.

You must continually inspire yourself as, quite frankly, no one else really cares that much.

Why?

Because they are too busy with their own lives to reaaly care about you all that much.

This even includes your loved ones, for the most part. With few excpetions, we are simply too busy/ too self absorbed to care that much about other people, inspite of pretenmses to the contrary.
