    1. It’s… subjective to the person. I remember having a terrible time in high school with certain subjects, because whether or not I retained any information at all, was entirely dependent on my interest on that subject. What’s important is realizing what works for you specifically, and putting that into practice.

    2. Just remove motivation all together. You don’t need motivation. You need discipline. Motivation doesn’t flip a switch, discipline is the one that flips its own switch.

    3. But you need enough motivation to pass a threshold to be able to take action and enact “discipline”. If you’re not motivated enough to be disciplined, then discipline doesn’t work.

      Spot on.

      You just have to commit to do the thing. Sometimes when you least want it, that’s the win that keeps you going and makes a difference.

    5. With true inner motivation there is no need for discipline, discipline doesn’t even come into the picture. You do the thing because you want, you even look forward to doing it and set aside other things just to do it
