For me, it comes and goes and I find it difficult to get out of the "dips". I hate them. As I grow older, I don't want to be too comfortable in my ways and scornfully ignorant of new things and ideas.
Recently, I started a blog with the goal to eventually get to one post per day. Imposing this discipline upon myself, I then have to learn stuff to write about it.
And, as I write about it and find out how trite and basic my understanding is, it shames me into learning more.
That is only my path, however, and finding yours is on you.
Find the reason to care.
Sometimes, curiosity itself is motivating enough.
