As a single mother over 15years i raise my daughter alone and i was proud of myself that i can do this. There was a time i feel tired and give up but i choose to be strong and stand firm and believe in myself that i can do all things through Christ who strenghten me. I’ve been through up and down in life. Therefore life teach me alot of things that if I could say ‘thank you’ I would definitely say it first to God and life itself. What motivates me is : 1. Myself, it all starts with me. All things are possible to those who believes to themselves. People can motivate you but if you don't have initiative to motivate yourself, you won't make it. 2. My daughter, she is my pride. I love her so much and this is the main reason I work hard because I want to see her to be a person who have value. Often she said, “ Mom, I love you so much and I want to be like you, you are a strong woman. You motivate me to be a better person”. 3. my best friend, he is a nice guy and always told me not to give up. 4. My siblings, they are awesome to me. My personal motto is “ believing is a hard work”. That is why I walk by faith not by sight. How about yours mylot friends? Have a great day everyone

I think being a mother, I would like to work smarter so that my daughter can mirror me and she will get some inspiration. My motto is Never Give Up.... Never Surrender.

Wow, I like your motto. That's incredible. Everything we need is within us. I remember one thing from the motivational speaker. He says " your future is not ahead of you, is within you". By means, a tree can become a forest. Inside of the seed has a tree. That's how our life should be. Thank you for your sharing. Insipirng

I don't have a motto. Nature inspires me to paint.

You must be grateful. God has given you a gift as an artist. You can do painting so make it your income source and you will be glad one day to see you can live with your passion. I agree with you, nature is always inspire us. And teach us many things.

I think I also want to feel the same as you. I was a young man living alone in the middle of the city far from the lives of my parents and friends. Often I feel ashamed and envious of people who can achieve what they want. It hurts and it feels like I want to die knowing I'm still a person at the lowest level in society. But I always realize and convince myself that I've lived this far. it's because I believe in God that maybe this is His way and I try to believe that I'm fine.

yes my friend. Without God we are nothing.He is our strength, best friend and our Father as well. Keep doing what is right and do not envy with what other could achieve. Everything has a season. Just believe in God and live by faith not by sight. Everything will be okay.

I don’t think i actually have a motto but i get motivated by the fact that i want to secure my son’s future. I stay alive so he could have parents that he could run to for as long as we are alive. I never had that and that’s what i want to give him.

In my case I believe in the saying from the New Testament that you mentioned, I use work as my way of assisting my relatives meet their needs. I also believe that hard work pays off in due time.

@aureategloom, thank you, my friend. I've been through the good and bad times, many are bad times. But I just want to be positive even when it hurts, sometimes I can not handle it too but I know God is in control. I just need to learn from my mistakes and be more careful. Be strong too ok. Everything has a season.

@Kawasaki01 me too, every time I feel give up I always watch some videos and listen to them to boost myself. I think we all need the motivation to encourage us
