Obsession Vs. Motivation

Staying Motivated
Me: That’ll be a while, but chasing your purpose, it seems so much larger than life, so LOOP How do you stay motivated?
You: I obsess.
Me: Ok, but how do you stay obsessed?
You: I have nothing else besides my goal in mind.
Me: I think you’re dodging the question - I want some specifics.
You: I cut out everyone and everything from my life. I don’t play games, I don’t go out unless I have to. (Pan to Me looking awkward) Is that what you wanted to hear? It’s exactly as I meant it.
Me: So because you have nothing else, you can do nothing else.
You: Exactly.
Me: Isn’t this pretty toxic? We all need friends around and things to keep us from going insane.
You: You asked me how I stay motivated - This is it. (pan to Me with a “hmm” look) Everything that’s not your goal is a distraction, and a lot of people aren’t ready to hear that.
Me: So what happens after you complete this goal? You’ll have nothing and nobody.
You: My goal is my purpose - I may never achieve it - I’ve made the objective so grand that there’s a chance it doesn't come to fruition completely in my lifetime.
Me: My goals are things that I want to achieve before I start to wrinkle. I have a lot of things-
You: There’s nothing wrong with that. But when you complete them, as you mentioned before - where will you be?
Me: Happy, i hope, once everything i’ve wanted is finally at my feet.
You: I guess we’ll see who’s more happy in the end
Me: That’ll be a while, but chasing your purpose, it seems so much larger than life, so LOOP
