Motivation would always help in sponsoring the initial fire, zeal and energy to begin a project but it's discipline that will grace a staying power.
Anyone can start a new thing, but not all can stay through the pressure, and the ups and downs that accompany that phase of life that graduates an individual in progress.
Sometimes, it's very demanding to stay-put and pull through it, till the very end. In most cases, it's important to understand and study the tenets of our pursuit and dream so that, we don't show off in excitement when we've not built tenacity, discipline, character and the necessary capacity for the desired height of attainment.
Preparation is non-negotiable. The spotlight when shown on, drills and drains what was already deposited or achieved. No doubt, if you wait to learn all, you'll never completely learn everything. Learn the rudiments that can help you start the course, be consistent in your pursuit and practice; perfection will walk into your corner.
Determination is birthed when value is attached to the project.
Can you remember the cliche that you were advised of during school days? That if you want to stay awake, you should put your legs in a bucket of cold water? You know, growing up, I've realized that if you have a vision and ambition and you're intentional about birthing your dreams into reality, they're enough reason to burn the night. So, you see... You can't be needing a bucket of water to stay awake for the completion of any task that is your passion. Your focus and determination would be just what you need to fuel your passion.
The going gets tough at some point but, nevertheless, the goal should remain the focus. No backing out, no giving up!
Cheers to every hardworking and dedication adult. Your effort will not be in vain.
