How do you keep yourself motivated?

I don't post here as often as I used too simply because I don't find a lot of great discussions to respond to anymore. I guess I could post my own discussions, but usually, I can't think of anything good to post that hasn't been asked before, so I usually avoid it. How do you keep yourself motivated enough to post on mylot all the time? I know that quite a few of you are here all the time. I try to be sometimes, but I can never quite do it. So, I'm curious, what keeps you going?

It is really difficult to be on Mylot. I really enjoy writing what I want to write after long hours of writing what other people want me to write. Moreover, I really love reading some of the discussions. It is highly entertaining, and sometimes informative too. Also the prospect of earning is quite attractive.

to become motivated i always look at my parents...they always do the right things at the right moment ...i always try to follow them ...but being a inexperienced fellow of life ,sometime i fall down...but my parents always pull me up and polish me...

i don't post much of my questions here. I only post when i like to. But many times i also do not find anything very good to respond to either. I browse through most of the sections and then answer a few of them.

I motivate myself from the posts that i read from mylotters here. The posts of other mylotters really drive to post more and more.

I am only able to post on here when I can these days. I usually have a lot going on during the week. When I see something interesting, I will respond. Otherwise, I only come on here from time to time.

Well, I keep all my friend notifiers on. So I get all the discussions my friends start. Sure, there are a few I can't add to, and occasionally there are one or two that are just plain odd, but as I go through them, I find good ones, then great ones, and before long I've gone through them all and responded to a whole lot of them. I always start with my friend's discussions. After all, why else have the friend list, LOL.

I simply fun, the enjoy writing here. I learn new things and I read interesting, amazing or funny facts. just the idea that I meet and I talk to people from other places makes me more to be here. And the fact that they listen to me and that I even become a help or even a friend to someone makes me feel great. There was a person who had the feeling of not being motivated anymore. Here you are a hero, you share with people your wisdom to aid them and that you ease their hard days. I can see that you are an active member, now all those points that are next to your name ate the results of your will to respond to someone's call for help. I'm very sure...no...I know that they are in your list at least one person who is now doing well or having now a better life because of you aid.

Sometimes I just take a nice drink and mylot. To find things to post on, I just look at interests, friends discussions. I'll also look at top and recent discussions to see what the mylotters are gabbing about. Now if only I could reach 10,000 or so.

Hi, Im a Filipina. As of now Im working as System Administrator in the Hospital, in my position I always do motivation because I do not want to be a stagnant in one thing I want to keep my self as a person of good motivation and will continue to be motivated for a good change. I keep my self motivated by joining group discussions and reading books "The Secret of Life", thru those things Im getting ideas that I could apply on my job and on my personal life. Im suggesting and sharing my ideas with my co head when we 're having meetings and discussions. And I think the best thing is keeping my mind into a positive outlook in life. As a person we should have a target in life when it comes to career and lovelife. How about you From what country are you?

I'm a new user for mylot, I just try to know more and more about it, and I'm also very interested with here's stories. I can know many kinds of stories here, when I met interesting one, I just write down my thoughts. And it's also a good way to meet new friends and know their minds. ^^
