It's funny to hear the lawyer describe himself as unmotivated. I think competitiveness is a big factor. There is a breed of human out there that really gets off on being better at a thing than someone else. Not from being good at something, but from the comparative 'Better than X at Y.' I think that type of person derives a lot of satisfaction from practice, because it's a known way to beat the living tar out of someone else.

Haha, well, I didn't work especially hard in law school (and my grades showed it). I suspect there's something to the competitiveness thing, as I said somewhere in this thread (I think), but I'm not sure how that plays out in this context.
