A while back I wrote about turning motivation into inspiration. But I left the first step to that relatively vague; it's hard to discover inspiration when you are unmotivated.
I was listening to a TED talks on exactly that the other day and it put my thoughts into words. The basis was that you cannot be motivated without movement. The most powerful thing you can do to become motivated is to just do something. We often overplan, over think and over identify the obstacles to the things we want to accomplish, and we generally miss the most powerful and effective tool which is doing.
Practically here is what that looks like. The first step to having your dream job is having a job; we sometime over complicate the solution. Do you feel unmotivated? Get up (cause most unmotivated people are sitting) and do something!
