Motivation to work

Almost everybody will agree that motivation to do a thing decreases with time...so even if you are fully motivated to paly for team india cos you will get 100 crores if you succeed..the motivation or willingness to work hard for 12 hours per day will not be the same after one year from the time you started...even tho u may now need the 100 crores more..... But it is also the case that the some people do get demotivated more quickly than others....and some may even seem to get more motivated as time passes...does it discredits the first staement...i think not.....what happens is thatu can embellish the motivational tool...like what will you do with the 100 crores...the more things you can think about the more postive energy you can gain......so one of the ways to remain motivatedis to think about the positives in all its variations cos one variation will help u only so muc

establishment of causality

we must have read it so many times, a positive corelation doesnot establishes causality..but we still tend to make the mistake in our everyday life. when i was young i remember reading in a survey that olderr men prefer Test matches and younger men ODIs...i thot the reason should be that youth likes the extra energy of odis while maturer men like the nuances of tests....and to prove the fact me being in college liked odis better.

but as slowly but surely i grow accustom to office life routine..suddenly i have found myself liking test matches and the reason being test matches can ease the office ennui for 5 days rather than one slam bang day of odis....so i think test odi comparison for youth older persons are not causal...
so while i avoid the mistake of assuming causality from corelation however i m still open to criticism from generalising from a particular instance..so dont believe me 100%..neways these are intended to make u think rather than no
