Motivation is what an amateur needs.

 Motivation is what an amateur needs.


​


Some people feel that motivation is or is necessary. In order for such people to carry out their creative work, a certain order or a suitable atmosphere must be established for them. In fact, there are some people who say so. However, such an action is a kind of stealth.



It requires an attitude of embracing freedom, even when short-term results are not achieved. In this way, you can experience the things you have never experienced before and feel the charm of life, giving out what you love above all else to the world.



Motivation is necessary because conviction is necessary.


We let our motivations dwindle, paralyzed by the fear that it might not work out, giving the perfect excuse for why we can't.


​

"Motivation is necessary only for amateurs."


- Chuck Close



​


Writer Zig Ziegler says motivation is similar to showering.


It's useful, but it doesn't last long, so you have to repeat it often.


​


Motivational books, lectures, or people involved in it all tell you to use a trick that 'worked for you and may work for others in one way or another. But such a trick is unnecessary.


​


What you need are two things:


​


First, recognize cultural and economic change and realize that it is your turn.


​


Second, make it a habit.


It is the habit of showing your face regularly, writing when it is time to write, raising your hand when it is time to ask a question, and actively cooperating and contributing at every moment. That habit is part of what it means to do work. It also requires a willingness to accept, connect, invent, and choose opportunities. Because it's our own business.


​


How full we are now has nothing to do with the opportunities or obligations we face.

Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity.

 Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity. ​ ​ ​ Each age has its own disease. For example, there is an era that can be said to be bacterial. But this era came to an end, at least with the invention of antibiotics. The beginning of the 21st century can be defined pathologically as neither bacterial nor viral, but rather neurotic. It is an infarct disease, not a contagious disease, and it is a disease caused by an excess of positivity, not the negativity of the immunological other. Therefore, it is by no means governed by immunological techniques aimed at defeating the negativity of others. ​ The last century was the immunological age. In other words, it was an era in which clear boundaries were drawn between the inside and the outside, friends and enemies, and me and others. The essence of immunological behavior is aggression and defense. There is a certain blindness in the essence of these immunological devices that have taken over the entire society from the...

The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana.

 The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana. "The observer is the source of all things. Without the observer nothing exists. The observer is the basis of all knowledge. The basis of all claims concerning man himself, the world and the universe. The extinction of the observer is the It will mean an end and annihilation, for there will be no one left to perceive, speak, describe or explain." - <<From Being to Doing>> Maturana ​ Someone is watching something. Marurana says this is a fundamental starting point. The person develops a world of his own as he sees it as an observer. If the other person exists as an observer, then the other person's world exists, and as an observer, the world that that person sees also exists. ​ The philosopher Nietzsche, before Maturana, described this as perspectives. If the term perspectives is difficult to describe, you can borrow the term from Maturana and call it 'observers. ​ ​ Snakes are creatures of a different world from human...

active reading.

 active reading. We know more about the world than we used to, and you may still think that knowledge is essential to understanding something. But knowledge is no longer as essential for understanding as one-sided thinking. You don't have to 'know' everything about something to 'understand' it. Too much information can actually be an obstacle to understanding something. The present age is overflowing with facts that prevent us from understanding the correct appearance of things due to a lot of information. ​ One of the most active projects of some of the best intellectuals today is to unite views from an intellectual standpoint. Through the Internet, television, radio, and magazines, people are provided with well-organized resources, from clever persuasion to carefully curated information and statistics, to make 'decisions' with little effort. But with effective packaging, viewers, listeners, and readers are sometimes unable to make their own decisions. As i...
