What is the main purpose of self-motivation? Self-motivation on one's own. The purpose of self-motivation is love for God and the glory of God. The glory of money is in the world, so no one needs to be motivated in terms of money. In that, they do not understand the glory, but they have love. They have attachment.

Many are calm by nature, many are restless by nature, so how to know if this person is motivated by love or glory of God? Those who are subject to nature make noise everywhere; they do not make noise thoughtfully.
