INTRODUCTION
✨ In How to Stay Motivated and Not Give Up, Master Woo Myung explains that the urge to quit does not come from circumstances—it comes from an undetermined mind filled with countless false thoughts. When the mind lacks determination, illusions arise and motivation collapses. 🌌
🌿 He teaches that when one comes to have the true mind, which is life itself, the mind that wants to give up disappears. With fewer illusions and no internal conflict, one can simply do the work at hand—nothing more, nothing less. From this simplicity arise strength, courage, passion, and results. 🌠
Motivation, therefore, is not something to force or maintain; it naturally appears when the negative mind is discarded and the positive, true mind remains. ✨
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
How to Stay Motivated and Not Give Up
The reason why people have thoughts about wanting to give up while they are in the middle of doing something is that their minds are not determined enough.
At this time, if a person comes to have the true mind, which is life, in one’s mind, the mind that wants to give up disappears, and one will not give up.
It is because there are too many illusions coming from one’s countless false minds that people want to give up.
However, if you have the true mind, you can simply do what you do and only do that. This way, you have strength and courage, which will make you act with passion and you can get good results in what you do.
When you get rid of your negative mind and have a positive mind, you will not give up.
— Woo Myung
