How to get motivation? In my honest opinion, there is no such thing called motivation. All those motivational quotes and posters are BS. If your brain is good enough to be charged with a quote or two, you don't need any motivation.

On the contrary, if you are a tired soul, nothing can motivate you - except circumstances.
There may be motives behind every action or inaction. But thinking that going through a few quotes, watching a movie, or reading a book, will give you necessary strength is stupidity. It's not motivation. It's the strength you already have.
This strength is within everyone. Motivation is "I have to do it." If there are no other options and you have to do it, it is motivation.
In other words, motivation is awakening your strength and getting down to work in either of these cases:
1. You seriously (desperately) want to do something - in which case you don't need any external motivation
2. You are left with no options; you have to do it; in this case, you can't afford to wait for that so called motivational spark; you just get down to work
So you see, external entities can't motivate you. You just have to brainwash yourself into believing you have to do it. That's real motivation.
