Long-Term Drive Sustainment

Meaning

Long-Term Drive Sustainment is the physiological and behavioral capacity to maintain high levels of motivation, focus, and energetic output toward complex objectives over extended durations, often spanning months or years. This clinical concept recognizes that initial motivation is transient and that sustained success depends on optimizing the underlying neuroendocrine systems that regulate perseverance and resilience. It requires a stable foundation of metabolic health and balanced hormonal signaling to prevent burnout and motivational collapse. The goal is to move beyond short bursts of effort toward consistent, high-level performance.
