你为什么会做你想做的事情呢？为什么你做某些事情有动力做别的事情就没有呢？你的环境、过往经历和性格是怎么影响你做一件事情的动机的呢？你可以改变动力并改变生活的方向吗？
我应该去做点运动了，可是……
动机很重要， 但它也很神秘。 我们都知道不由自主去做某件事的感觉，但是我们并不总是知道为什么会有这种感觉。
关于动机有大量的研究，但是领会其要义并不容易。从维基百科的‘动机’相关词条来看，有超过20中不同的理论。考虑到多样性，难怪人们会喜欢那些令人难忘但又不可信的想法，例如弗洛伊德的幻想解释。
在早期的文章里，我问了为什么执行那么难。为什么我们生活中的那么多问题似乎是自己的不作为导致的--没办法让自己去做应该做的事。 为了满足这种好奇心，我通读了许多论文和书籍，以了解迄今为止科学的发现。在这本指南里，我尝试总结了最重要和最有用的科学研究。
像其他完整的指南一样，这个指南比起一篇普通博文更像是一本小书——有点儿大了，不太适合写在邮件正文里。我做了一些不同的版本以便于阅读：

Hello X,
Why do you do what you do? Why do you feel motivated to do some things, but not others? How does your environment, experiences and personality impact your motivation? Can you change your motivation and alter the direction of your life?
Motivation matters. But it’s also mysterious. We all know what it feels like to be driven to act, but we don’t always know why we feel that way.
There’s considerable research on motivation, but getting the gist of it isn’t easy. Consider Wikipedia’s entry on motivation, which includes over 20 different theories! Given the diversity, it’s no wonder people gravitate to memorable-but-discredited ideas such as the fanciful interpretations of Freud.
In an earlier essay, I asked why taking action is hard. Why do so many of our life problems seem to stem from an inability to motivate ourselves to do what we should? To sate that curiosity, I read through dozens of papers and books to see what science has discovered so far. This guide is my attempt to summarize the most important and useful research in the science of motivation.
Like the other Complete Guides, this is more like a small book than a blog article—much too big to fit into an email. I’ve made a few different versions available to make it easier to read:
Read it directly on my website
Stream audio as a podcast episode (or download as MP3)
Download it in PDF format (or EPUB or MOBI)
