Good comments by all. However they seem (to me) to be taken from the perspective of people who have never experienced an extended lack of motivation with regard to training. If this is so, then you're very lucky... like me. I'm addicted to training and need it. I really crave it, and can't imagine my life without it. Naturally this is why I'm curious to know more about the other side of the coin.

I think some people begin to ask "what's the point?" after a while doing aikido. This seems to be when they need to find their purpose for training.

I posted the same question on the A.J. message board and got some very different answers. If you're interested take a look here: http://143.207.8.139/cgi-bin/ubb/ult...c&f=9&t=002016
