3. Be hungry

Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it. Your motivation must be absolutely compelling in order to overcome the obstacles that will invariably come your way.
Les Brown

To be truly motivated, you need to have hunger and not just desire. Having mere desire won’t take you through difficult times since you don’t want things badly enough. In many cases, hunger makes the difference between the best performers and the mediocre ones.
How can you have hunger? Your cause and your dream play a big role here. If you have a cause you care about and a big dream related to it, you should have the hunger inside of you. If you think that you are losing hunger, all you need to do is to connect again to your cause and dream. Let them inspire you and bring the hunger back.

3.要有饥渴感

“‘想要’什么那还不够。你一定要对它充满渴望。你的动力一定要足够霸道，那才能跨过总是出现在路上的那些障碍。”

要想真正得到激励，你得不仅仅是“想要”，还要是“渴望要”。仅仅是普通欲望没法帮你渡过困难，因为你又不是非要不可。很多时候，有没有饥渴感就是将军和士兵的差别。
怎样才能有饥渴感？这里就得看你的动机目标和梦想了。如果你又有关心的目标又有和之相关的白日梦，你就该有一种饥渴感才对。如果你认为自己正在丧失这种饥渴感，你所要做的就是再一次连结起目标和梦想。让它们继续激发你并给你带来饥渴。
