Oftentimes, people work on themselves just to impress someone else… Sounds familiar? Well, the truth is that such “external motivation” is not really sustainable, because you can’t control how someone perceives you. For this exact reason, it is important to remember that no one really gives a FUCK about your progress. More often than not, people will actually envy you for your progress and try to put you down. This is exactly why you should resort to doing these things for YOURSELF. When you have INTERNAL motivation and you know that your actions are for YOUR greater good, you are way more likely to achieve sustained progress.
