It’s important to understand your true “why” as you look to improve. This is your internal or intrinsic motivation. Positive changes are more likely to stick when they are driven by motivation from within. It allows you to anchor yourself in those deep-down drivers that are tied to things you value. Intrinsic motivation also tends to provide more drive when the going gets tough or when we don’t see changes as quickly as we thought we would. Identify your true “why” to keep yourself driven as you pursue your goal.
