longlegzs80 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I have always wanted to be one of those people who always keeps themselves motivated to doing their thing and keep going. Sometimes I find myself not wanting to get out of bed, or even waking up for that matter because I dwell on all the things that have been on my mind for quite some time. Things that have been on my mind are getting a job (gone out looking but no success), bettering myself, working on my portfolio etc. All I want out of life is to be happy, healthy and financially stable. But how do you get that. This might be where I need some inspiration or some advice on how to be happy, how to make myself healthy or whatever it may be. I guess this is just a thing where I can vent, but I am interested in hearing what motivates you, or what inspires you. I remember when I was a young teenager, I had the attitude that I can do anything. Now I just feel like I am a waste of life. What do I need to do to start motivating myself and where I can have that I can do anything attitude that I used to have. Another thing is how can I stay motivated. I know this thread is all over the place, and does not really make much sense,but if anyone can weed out what I am talking about and be willing to respond. I would greatly appreciate it. And yes, can we please keep the topic on inspiration and motivation please. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie31 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Longlegz, I have days like that too. I think everyone does now and then. But just keep in mind that anything worth having takes work. I know this because like right now I am in nursing school and it is so incredibly hard sometimes...but I just try to think of all the good things to come when I get out. and that's for the rest of my life. And about what motivates me - knowing that one day I will have kids and I want to be able to provide for them and give them all the things they need and want. I don't want to have to love paycheck to paycheck and not be able to buy my child a toy at Wal-Mart if he/she wants it. And I know my chosen career path will allow me plenty of opportunity to make good money so that I can provide for my family. My future children, although right now are just a figment of my imagination, are what inspires me and keeps me going. I hope I helped somewhat. Just find something in your life...whether it's something you have right now..or something you have to look foward to and let that be your motivation. Link to post Share on other sites
