Most people think motivation is something you either have or you don't. Alec Harrison argues the opposite.

In this episode of The Executive Commute, Jayson Krause sits down with Emmy-nominated composer Alec Harrison to unpack what motivation really is, why waiting for it is dangerous, and how action itself creates momentum.

Drawing on his experience composing music for Monday Night Football, the FIFA World Cup, film, and television, Alec shares how his relationship with motivation evolved from chasing external validation to reconnecting with the love of the craft itself.

They explore why many people quit too early, the danger of tying motivation to outcomes, and why meaningful progress often comes from simply "winning the day."
