It could just be your personality - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revised_NEO_Personality_Invent...

Some people are open, curious but not disciplined(Conscientiousness). I know cause I fall into that group :) So if discipline doesn't come naturally, or it evaporates when obstacles are hit, then a little extra energy is required to handle those situations.

To get that energy you have to be aware of what kinds of events/people/triggers have produced energy in you to act in the past.

Try to create conditions, put yourself into situations, where those things happen everyday.

For me I know there are certain people in my life I need to be around, when I am low on energy or require extra energy that produces discipline. I make sure they understand why. And I make sure I am contributing back to their lives, needs and well being in someway.

Also be very aware of what drains your energy and root it out or actively reduce it. Its not easy or happens overnight. But when you make it a daily ritual to seek out what generates energy that causes action and reduce what drains energy that causes inaction you slowly start seeing progress.
