motivation-Motivation is (the source of) motivation。When you're full of motivation, it's natural to do something.、I can't imagine feeling like I'm trying to "maintain" something.。However、A series of small failures、The environment has changed and it has become somehow difficult.、When things don't go smoothly for various reasons、including me、Many people lose motivation, even temporarily.。
Even if my motivation doesn't increase、Most of the time, for various reasons, you cannot get the desired result → Feeling of accomplishment、Unable to feel happy → It is painful to continue、I guess that means。If you get the results you want、I probably won't worry about it。
Humans are very greedy animals.、If the same (similar) results continue、That in itself is a source of dissatisfaction, which is troublesome.。For example, let's say you come second every time in a track and field event.。2nd place every time in different tournaments is quite a good result.。Moreover, since we are humans, it is not only when we are in good physical condition.。Still, I think it's amazing that he came in second place every time.、If you want to be number 1, you'll probably be dissatisfied.、Maybe you've gotten used to "always coming in second place" and it's far from a sense of accomplishment.。The problem is the surroundings。"disappointing。Encouragement such as “Just one more step” or “Next time is number one” have the opposite effect.、Detracts from the person's sense of accomplishment。And before you know it, that feeling of regret settles in your heart.。imagine like that。
People who get motivation only by comparing themselves with others、In this sense, it can be said that athletes in various sports are in a particularly harsh environment.。If you say it like this、自分はすでに悟りの境地にいるかのように思われそうだが、わたしもそこから脱することは全然できない。However、最近は人との比較（はするが）より、自分の人生の残り時間との中でモチベーションを考えるようになってきた。山に喩えると、頂上という具体的な結果よりも、どの高さから風景を眺めたいか、という一種の“自己満足派”に移りつつあるようだ。自己満足とはいえ、そこへ行くにも小なりとも幾多のハードルがあり、そのいちいちを越えるごとにちょっとした喜びを味わう。やっても無駄かなという、とんでもない「虚無」が持ち上がってくると、やる気ガタ落ちになるが、とりあえずそうやって“プチ”満足でやる気を維持しているようである。
