"It is never too late to be what you might have been."
If you're not motivated to take action, raise the stakes. The way to
get motivated, to get passionate and to get going is to make it worth your
while.
It's only natural to procrastinate, avoid and make excuses when what
you must do has little or no meaning for you. The answer is not to force
yourself to act against your own interest, but rather to find a way to get
yourself positively invested.
When you make it important enough, you'll make it happen. When you
make it truly matter, you'll figure out how, and you'll persevere until it's
done.
If your dreams are just empty wishes, and you're not moving
passionately toward them, make them bigger. Give them
consequence, and you'll make them compelling.
Get your own self-interest working in your favor. Align that
self-interest with what's best for everyone, and you'll find yourself actually
doing what's best for everyone, including you.
There's no need to fight or strive or struggle to get yourself to
take action. Make it matter, and you'll make it happen.
