How badly did I screw up condenser fan motor?

My condenser fan stopped spinning and through google searches I found out that I could get it to work again just by giving the fan a little push. So I did this 3 times - once on friday night, once saturday morning, and once saturday late afternoon. But now I found out that this causes the motor to draw extra amps and damages it.

So basically I'm wondering how badly I screwed things up. If you had to put a dollar amount on it, about how much money did I just flush down the toilet?

I feel awful that I might've just ruined a several-hundred-dollar motor. My parents are away on vacation and I just wanted some A/C :(
