I think there’s a misconception
That spawns a false understanding
Called Lazy – born from misunderstanding
The difference between motivation & inspiration
Because it’s easy to say true dedication
Is pursuing your goal regardless
If you have the motivation that day
That real achievers work regardless
If they want to – though the thing is
I haven’t been waiting to go to the gym
Until I felt like it – I know I won’t ever want to
Until I start – I’ve learned to how things enough
To know how I’ll learn to love the discomfort
& find its own sense of serenity in the routine
That’s when the motivation will come
But the thing is – I have no reason to go
Not in the sense that I can’t see how it will help
In the moment – but I have nothing to hold on to
That inspires the change – I’m content with my self
So I have no image in my head of whatever
To change to even if I wanna change
Eventually – I’m still content with my reflection
Because I know I will always be changing
So I try not to pressure my self on the pace
& just let the process proceed purposefully
Without consideration for the place in the race
…
So
Long story, short
It’s not that I lack motivation
To change or learn something new
It’s just that even if I can get up & go
No matter how many times I turn the key
There’s no amount of motivation nor willpower
That will start a car that’s still empty of gasoline
…
I guess you could say
With enough motivation & willpower
I could just walk
But why would I?
I believe some is coming
Patience is a virtue
So why desert my car
On the side of the road
When waiting for a refill
Will probably get me there still
Around the same time
Just not exhausted
From running in bad weather
Because of whatever peer pressure
Whether internal or external
Telling me that waiting patiently
Means I’m just acting Lazy
