What is your drive?
I don’t really know, to be honest, except that maybe “some men…are natural sayers, sent into the world to the end of expression.”

“Miss you in the saddest fashion”
In 2016 you will discover that I am not that picture you painted in your head. And you will leave.
Language is power. When you turn “torture” into “enhanced interrogation,” or murdered children into “collateral damage,” you break the power of language to convey meaning, to make us see, feel, and care.
Rebecca Solnit “Our Words Are Our Weapons” (via definitiveme)
She was a story that never hit the paper and her eyes were paintings that never hit the canvas.

Fuck motivation.
It’s a fickle and unreliable little state that isn’t worth your time.
Better to cultivate discipline than to rely on motivation.
Force yourself to do things, to get out of bed, to go the gym, to work harder and smarter; force yourself to do stuff when you don’t feel like doing anything.
Motivation is fleeting, and it’s easy to rely on because it requires no concentrated effort to get. Motivation comes to you, you don’t even have to chase after it.
Discipline is reliable; motivation is momentary.
The real question isn’t how to keep yourself motivated, it’s how to train yourself to work without it.
