Motivation or influence generated by society? - LOH #252
ENGLISH
I truly believe that motivation comes from within, from your desire to overcome or succeed in life, to achieve goals in order to evolve and continue growing. Being almost an emotion, it is difficult to maintain, especially when the storm appears and you are dizzy with your own goals, but does this motivation come from your desires or from social influence?
It is well known that society in general shows you “where you should go” or what is expected of you, whether through propaganda, old doctrines, some religions, political parties, and so on. This is where you question whether it is really your desires that motivate you or whether it is society that pressures you and disguises itself as motivation.
ESPAÑOL
Creo fielmente que la motivación viene del interior, de tus deseos por superar o triunfar en la vida, el cumplir objetivos con el fin de evolucionar y seguir creciendo, siendo casi una emoción es difícil mantenerla, sobre todo cuando la tormenta aparece y estás mareado en tus propias metas, pero, ¿Esta motivación proviene de tus deseos o de la influencia social?
Bien es sabido que la sociedad en general te muestra por “donde deberías ir” o lo que se espera de ti, ya sea con propaganda, viejas doctrinas, algunas religiones, partidos políticos y demás, y es aquí donde te cuestionas si son tus deseos realmente lo que te motivan o si es la sociedad que te presiona y se ve disfrazada de motivación.
The radical thing about this is that in many cases, if you are making good money, it doesn't matter what you are doing, and depending on the influences mentioned above, morality is different. In many cases, what you do is hardly questioned if you are generating income and “living life.” As social media does its thing, I have found myself more influenced or “motivated” to achieve my goals, but when I think about it a little, most of them are due to a feeling of suffocation and there are major limitations that are beyond my control.
To be completely honest, my motivation stems from wanting to be independent, specifically because of my surroundings (born from an old-fashioned upbringing that no longer applies to me). As I live with my grandmother, the clash of upbringings is quite noticeable, with conversations and routines that make me wonder which upbringing is best suited to today's needs. And this doesn't just happen to me. I know people with motivations, or rather pressures and ideas, that are completely foreign to them or their desires, but society and the philosophy of others tell them where they should go.
Lo radical de esto es, que en varios casos si estás ganando buen dinero no importa lo que estés haciendo, y dependiendo de las influencias anteriores mencionadas la moral es distinta. En varios casos es poco cuestionable lo que haces si estás generando ingresos y “vives la vida”. Conforme las redes sociales hacen de las suyas, me he visto más influenciada o “motivada” a lograr mis objetivos, pero cuando lo pienso un poco la mayoría son por una sensación de ahogamiento y hay grandes limitantes que se escapan de mis manos.
Siendo más que sincera, mi motivación nace de querer ser independiente, específicamente por el entorno que me rodea (nacido de antigua crianza que en mí ya no aplica), conforme vivo con mi abuela, el choque de crianza es bastante notorio, conversaciones y rutinas que me hacen pensar cual crianza es la que más se adapta a las necesidades de hoy día, y esto no solo me pasa a mí, conozco a personas con motivaciones o mejor dichos presiones e ideas completamente ajenas a ellos o sus deseo, pero la sociedad y filosofía de otros les indican a donde deber ir.
Over time, I have come to understand that motivation comes from your personal desires, from what your body tells you and your heart feels. The desire to be accepted makes us repress ourselves and seek a desperate way out, whether emotional or physical, and in some cases it may not turn out well, perhaps at first, but then over time it will be the best decision.
At the end of the day, decisions must be made with a cool, objective mind, but one that comes from within. Motivation is a somewhat fleeting emotion, but if you work at it, it can become a feeling that helps you achieve your goals and objectives. Personally, working to stay motivated has not been easy, but I have achieved great things, yes. You have to be consistent, remember that feeling, and turn it into the energy that will lead you to great things.
Best regards.
He entendido con el paso del tiempo que la motivación nace de tus deseos personales, de lo que tu cuerpo habla y tu corazón siente, el querer ser aceptados nos hace reprimirnos y buscar una salida desesperada, ya sea emocional o física, y en algunos casos puede no resultar bien, tal vez al principio y luego con el tiempo será la mejor decisión.
Al final de todo, la toma de decisiones se debe hacer con la mente en fría, objetiva, pero que nazca de tu interior. La motivación es una emoción algo fugaz, pero si es trabajada puede volverse en un sentimiento que te haga lograr tus metas y objetivos. Personalmente el trabajo de estar motivada no ha sido fácil, he logrado grandes cosas, sí. Hay que tener constancia, recordar ese sentir y volverlo la energía que te lleve a grandes cosas.
Saludos.

I agree with you, it is by looking inside ourselves that we will find motivation and not by pleasing others, with perseverance feel that sensation and as you say, it will be the energy that will lead you to great things,

This is such a deep and honest post 💖 I love your question about whether motivation comes from within or from societal pressure. It takes real courage to talk about personal challenges like that 🙌 I completely agree about finding the inner fire and holding onto it is what leads to real growth ✨
These are questions that people rarely ask themselves, and when they do, it unlocks a wonderful level of reflection and learning. ❤️

That’s such a powerful reflection You’re absolutely right—motivation on its own can come and go, but when paired with consistency and a clear mindset, it becomes something stronger.
Thank you for sharing this. It’s a great reminder to stay steady and keep fueling that inner energy!
