Motivation: gets the Respect…still quietly kicks everyone’s ass.

In my last post, I was giving Motivation it’s due respect. Looks like I’m not the only one! One of my fave’s (see the blog roll if you don’t believe me– it’s on Betsy’s RSS feed) Zen Habits-Simple Productivity has a post on the topic.

It you don’t know Zen Habits you should, with 119,000 RSS subscribers, Zen is considered one of the top blogs around, the creator even has a guided tour (worth the read!)

Contributor Jonathan Meade, Why Motivation Doesn’t Really Matter is actually a misnomer. One of the comments posted said it should be called “Why Trying to Motivate Yourself Doesn’t Work Sometimes” which is a more accurate title. Still worth the read. Read the comments on others take on motivation.  The take-away: motivation deserves respect, mostly because motivation (or lack thereof) still quietly kicks everyone’s ass.

Now on a personal note,  seeing something like this is nice because it means that TheLiquidBetsy is in really, really good company.

So, at least for today, Betsy ate lunch with the cool kids.
