Motivation requires emotion and drains energy.
Emotions can wax and wane making motivation unreliable.

Your daily behaviors are what drives progress and success.
It's crucial to understand that how you feel and react is completely in your control.
The behavior of other people is not an excuse for your negative feelings and overblown reactions.
By reacting to external triggers you give away your power. You can always choose not to react.
You must be clear on what is acceptable.
Otherwise, you may find that you’re doing things you don’t want to do and don’t bring you joy.
You must create the environment that allows you to thrive.
No one can do that for you.

2. Review your day
3. Realize your distractions are your own doing
4. Understand every day is a new life

There are huge differences among what athletes need to do, want to do, and are willing to do. Good luck finding a coaching textbook that can walk you through these important differentiations. Time in the trenches to establish relationships and read personalities is imperative.
