Is it money? Success? Fame? Happiness? Is it internal? External? God? Something unknown? Thanks.

When your goals in life are centred on know-how,you do not have to concern yourself with material goals.These will come automatically.

...what motivates me most is when I wake up everyday with good health and feeling strong.. because I believe that everytime I wake up, God gives me another chance to go on with life... Everyday, I am reminded of God's great love for me having given a chance to enjoy the breath of life that He gave me... With this, I become more aggressive and more motivated to go on living my life to the fullest.. Money, success and all the others are secondary motivators for me.. because we are in a material world and we need material things in order to survive.. but these material things are not our priority in my own belief...

Love to my son. This is the top most thing that motivates me, he serves as my inspiration to keep going and carry any burden of being a single mom. NO matter how hard to earn money, to a lot equal time between work and family, tiredness in travelling and suffering from loneliness of being far. This loves, makes me keep going, a little hug, a simple word of "i love you" comes from my kid, makes me happy and feel fulfilling.

For me its more about happiness...if i'm happy then I'm contented with what I have. So, most of the time I choose to be happy and stay contented. Nevertheless, by keeping this mentality, I receive more blessings and so i am more abundant and because of this I do my best to perform excellently in every opportunity I partake. :)

Hi! I am motivated by God to do the best in everything I do to prove that I am His creature. The motivation is internal especially if I can make others happy and me too!

Desire to reach financial independence! this is the only thing I need. Fame is not good thing, because when you get tired of everyday routine and of years of hard work, the first thing you might want to do is to hide away from everything and everybody and just spend some time in sweet solitude. And you can indulge in your solitude somewhere in your private house with a pool in... Australia or New Zealand, lets say. And for this you will need money, not fame. This is what motivates me. LOL

Lots of stuff, but when it comes to work i need challenge, if i can't challenge myself and strive to become even more skillfull it quickly gets boring, dont like doing stuff to easy. I also have the desire to construct, design and create things and i get depressed whenever i don't get to do that, which i don't get to right now. I desire to build and create because it satisfies me and give me happines that i get to use my skills. I don't do it either for just fame or fortune, thats not interesting. I could do it for money just so that i can use the finances to fuel my work, making it possible to design and create even more stuff. Fame can help with this but only if it leads to more money, in any case fame isnt something i strive fore, i know that fame comes to me if my skills are great enought. I also have the desire to work hard to achieve any goals i set, coupled with the desire to create its gets powerful, a double edged sword that can both boost me or harm me if im unactive like now. God also has a part in this, but i don't feel like discussing religion here, wrong topic.

I think the want to be successful motivates me. And once you succeeded name and fame will follow and you'll be happy. So the main motivating factor is success. And I firmly believe Money must not be the factor as it will make you one dimensional

The love I have for my girlfriend. Without her I don't think I was posting here now. I used to have problems with motivation, but she really helped me about that, and now my self motivation is growing everyday. I started to do important things in my life just for her, things that I didn't even think about, because I don't want to let her down. I want her to have the best boyfriend (and husband in the future, I hope! lol). I want to make her the happiest woman in the universe!

I am motivated by my future, to know that it is a blank slate and the way it gets filled is all my choice. obviously I want an amazing future so staying dedicated to make it amazing is what motivates me. Service, God, Success, Etc. all of that will have an affect on my future.
