Motivation starts here

I was looking on the internet when I ran across this that said, "Motivation is literally the desire to do things. It's the difference between waking up before dawn to pound the pavement and lazing around the house all day. It's the crucial element in setting and attaining goals—and research shows you can influence your own levels of motivation and self-control. So figure out what you want, power through the pain period, and start being who you want to be." To me this really got to me because it truly made me think. What does motivate me? When I get up in the morning I'm either thinking "man, why am i up?" or "Time to go to work" Its never being excited to get stuff done. I believe mine would be success on achieving things threw out the day, or even being able to make it to the gym. Maybe it's because I'm so exhausted when I wake or maybe it's just how I've been thinking. But hopefully next week I'll be able to figure out what my motivation may be.
