I highly recommend you watch this short film "Nuggets" and share with your kids as you deem appropriate. I also see a parallel to intrinsic (you) vs. extrinsic (drugs) motivation. The more that you can build your own capacity to self-motivate and love and the more you surround yourself with others and conditions that protect and promote that the happier and healthier you will be. Simple in theory... much more difficult in practice in today's society. If you look to other people and things for your success or happiness you will likely come up lacking if not in the short-term for sure in the long-term motivationally. It's not about how much motivation you have it's about what kind... quality not quantity. As I like to say, "Be your own hero. Be the best you!"
Inspire the fire,
