tapping into motivation

[a lost entry reconstructed]

I mused (without a muse for the past 2 weeks) about elusive motivation
a week or so ago, and in a recent conversation, I shared a very small
bit of insight that if one is tapped into intrinsic motivation (aka
passion or compulsion or drive or ambition or conviction or whatever)
that one would be able to overcome stress and challenge.

Digging through my archive of links, found these links on motivation:

Factors That Encourage Intrinsic Motivation

Intrinsic Motivation Inventory

Christian Religious Internalization Scale aka Religious Self-Regulation Questionnaire
