# Motivation
[[consistency]] is more important than motivation.
Set [[intentions]].
#Unfinished
Laugh at how easily giving up can happen. Almost winning? Motivating, feels like losing, demotivating...
She loves me motivating. She loves me not, demotivating. Fuck motivation. You remain regardless.
## #Thought/Question What is my intention when...
- I'm playing a video game?
- I'm popping a pimple?
- I'm showering?
- I'm shopping?
- [[hesitation]]?
- [[taking notes|tiddling]]
- passing [[judgement]]
- struggling internally
- [[emotional eating|binging]]
- [[scrolling]]
- So many other mundane things
Is it important to keep the intention in mind?
## Motivation and intention are the same here
at least that seems to make sense
## Intention
In Buddhism, it is the intention of an action that matters for [[karma]], not the outcome, as we do not control the outcome.
You are taking action endlessly. So let us be clear about our motivation...
