CMV: If you constantly need motivation to do something, it is a sign you should not be doing it

I think people rely on motivation way more than they should. When something genuinely matters or aligns with you, you might still struggle, but you do not have to keep convincing yourself to start every time. Constantly needing motivation feels more like forcing yourself toward something driven by pressure or external rewards rather than real interest. I understand some responsibilities are unavoidable, but even then, relying on motivation again and again seems more like a warning sign than people admit, and I’m open to having my view changed. I am open to being convinced otherwise. What am I missing?
