For me, motivation is crucial when setting the goals, but to achieve them - discipline. You can run on motivation only so far. It doesn't kick in at will and tends to waver when you hit major challenges or are just having a shitty day.
You're going to need a fair amount of both.
Motivation can get you started initially, but with every startup you'll be hit with obstacle after obstacle. And sometimes it'll be an obstacle avalanche. You need a heavy degree of discipline to keep your head up & keep going in the face of that.
Both are important. But I think motivation is more important. If you have discipline with no motivation you won't get anywhere. But if you have motivation with no discipline you can still achieve things. Also, sometimes letting go of your discipline and letting yourself ride on a wave of motivation for a particular task can help you get more done I find!

For me both work equally and actually when I discipline myself to work in limited time, it gives me the motivation to complete my work early or on time so yeah they work together.
