This was a great insight:<p>Motivation is in the mind; follow-through is in the practice. Motivation is conceptual; follow-through is practical. In fact, the solution to a motivation problem is the exact opposite of the solution to a follow through problem. The mind is essential to motivation. But with follow through, it's the mind that gets in the way.<p>...<p>Here's the key: if you want to follow through on something, stop thinking.

Funny that he distinguishes b/w "you" and your "mind". IMNSHO You == your mind.
