- 7:24motivation.
- 7:25Especially

- 7:27Think

- 7:27it
- 7:27like
- 7:28this.
- 7:28Motivation
- 7:29is

- 7:46But
- 7:46a
- 7:46system
- 7:47doesn't
- 7:47need
- 7:47that
- 7:48inspiration.
- 7:49A

- 7:55perfection.
- 7:56The
- 7:56goal
- 7:57is
- 7:57just
- 7:57consistency.
- 7:58Because

- 9:56What
- 9:56are
- 9:56you
- 9:56going
