Zig ZiglarOf course motivation is not permanent. But then, neither is bathing; but it is something you should do on a regular basis.
About This Quote
In the quote above, Stephen R. Covey is making a point about the importance of motivation. Motivation is important, but it is not sustainable. We all lose motivation at some point, but we also all need motivation to get us back on track.
The idea is that motivation is like bathing. You need to do it on a regular basis, not just when you want to feel good for a little while. To paraphrase the quote, motivate yourself periodically but never forget that it is of primary importance to motivate yourself every day of your life.
