Hard work and habit are far more ephemeral than motivation is. Motivation is at the core of all and any activity and anyone saying they do not have any motivation and are just working hard are manipulating semantics. Motivation is absolutely paramount to take care of to do anything because if you don't have it your hard work will instantly evaporate.
It's a very fundamental condition. You can't do away with it. Being low on energy doesn't mean you're not motivated.
Hard work, habits, etc., are extremely relative things from what I've seen, and it's still not well understood what they mean and how they work.
Can we please stop worshiping someone's conviction from a book?

Sounds stupid, but keeps me going... [1]http://tinyhabits.com/ http://tinyhabits.com/
