A little bit about motivation.
As a coach, a trainer, and a mom one of my main jobs is motivation.
There is external motivation, which is what you expect from coaches and trainers. This includes the rewards, the “yelling”, and the feeling of making others proud.
What is more important however is the internal motivation. This comes from inside of us. This is our why. Why is it important? Why do we want it? Why does it matter to us? Without internal motivation, the why, you will never see what you are truly made of. You will never push as hard as you are capable.
Big things happen when these two motivations come together. When you have the internal drive and someone around you giving you that extra push, that is when the magic happens.
