So why do you associate lack of motivation with lack of Ne. I don't get it.

Because both istp and isfp need inspiration and new potential or new adventure/horizon to encourage movement. Ne is just that type because they look for that and talk about their experiences too. I knew of an istp who was married to an estj . Out of boredom he would make sudden spontaneous decision to take off on a long drive to Vegas. The vital tonus of the two ip types decreases without Ne. To get my ex out of semi down moods I used my Ne and made him feel excited about new venture in businesses. He's a multimillionaire now. I used to say things like "this opportunity will be great for you because you won't have the overhead cost association with the business and you can have multiple stations..." This awoke in him the need for action and he took it becoming very active and motivated to make money.
