Thereisalwayssomething I know I gottodoit, but I don't.
やらなきゃいけないと思いながら、やらないことがいつもある。
I waitforthemotivationtokickin, butitnevercomeswhen I needit.
やる気が出てくるのを待つんだけど、必要なときに出てこないんだ。
Andsuddenlyaround 2am, inthemiddleofnight, I wouldgetsuperhypedupaboutsomethingandpromisemyselfthat I wouldchangethistime, onlytofindmyselfinthesameposition 3 daysafter.
そして夜中の2時ごろに突然、何かに熱中し、今度こそ変わると自分に誓う。
What's worseisthatthemore I repeatthiscycle, themore I doubtmyselfandfeelawful.
さらに悪いのは、このサイクルを繰り返せば繰り返すほど、自分を疑い、ひどい気分になることだ。
I usedtosayyoudon't needmotivation, onlythinkyouneedit's discipline.
モチベーションは必要ない。必要なのは規律だけだ。
But I disagreenow, becausecompletelyrelyingondisciplineisnotsustainableinthelongrunanditcausesburnouts.
