This is another concept which has made its rounds in the world that something else should motivate you to do what you're doing.

To-infinitive

If what you're doing is significant enough, you don't need any other thing to motivate you.

Present continuous

What you're doing is truly significant to life, why do you need another motivation to make that happen?

If you really understand and experience that what you're doing is truly important for every life around you, you don't need a motivation, life just goes on.

See, does your heart beat need a motivation to keep it going, I'm asking you?

All the life processes is not asking for any motivation, isn't it?

No, it's coming year after year because the natural process is going on.

Simply like that, in you and me, life is on.

What I'm telling you is, if you're doing something which is aligned with the fundamental life process of who you are, this can find a million expressions, it need not be just spiritual teaching, it can find a million expressions that what you're doing is aligned with your fundamental life process, then you will not need anything to motivate you.

Simply, as a part of life, it will just happen.

How much you do, simply depends on how much time you invested on upgrading yourself.

The problem with the world right now is, people are always trying to upgrade their activity.

If you upgrade your activity without upgrading yourself, you are bound to break up somewhere.

It's like, you went on a Formula One track because you want to be on a fast track and you went with your Maruti 800, suppose you hit the right kind of speed, all the four wheels will go in four different directions, it won't hold up.

If you want to be on that kind of speed and that kind of track, you must prepare the machine.

If you upgrade yourself, activity will simply happen.

Many people around me, you know, many times think I'm superhuman because of the activity that I perform.

If you explore the possibilities of being human, if you explore the possibilities of the immensity of being human, you will realize you don't have to be a superhuman, being human itself is super.

 So you will not need any external drive or some other inspiration, the very process of life will do it.
