I've been getting less than 20/30 on the medium difficulty aim trainer for months. Today, inspired by an esports documentary, I set a 15 minute timer to practice my aim.

I still couldn't go beyond 14-17, but then I had a thought.. "Why are you doing this? Focus on that." I started trying harder - because now there was MEANING to what I was doing (and that meaning was "I wanna land cool shots to impress my team and clutch"). I set a goal of being able to consistently get above 20/30. I obtained the goal instantly by focusing on that sense of desire.

Point is.. I learned you can't have motivation without focus. You can't have a sense of meaning without a reason.
