What motivates you - How do you stay motivated daily

[Dvessella1983]

With the day-to-day hustle and grime we are constantly loosing motivation one way or another. Whether its your job, your boss, the day-to-day activity's or just the fact that we never slow down how can we as active adults stay motivated? I find it a challenge with (2) jobs, (2) kids, the day-to-day grind and making sure I am staying above the curve its a challenge to stay motivated.

I get-up early, eat breakfast, check email, log-on to Fusion Cash, do my daily routine and then race to the workplace where I put in 8 hours a day at a job i hate then come home to my family I love and my motivation level drops. So what's the secret to staying motivated That is one for the ages, however the older we get the more of a challenge it becomes.

What do you do to stay motivated?

I think you deserve to rest at the end of the day. But, I try to have several projects going at once.  Some of them don't require too much energy, but I can still feel productive if I'm tired at night.

I guess what motivates me now is my fur babies since my kids don't live here anymore -- they are the reason I get up and keep going anymore -- my lupus has gotten so bad I would just stay in the bed all the time if not for them !

I am motivated by serving others and doing my small part to make the world better.

My son.  He's basically my life..the reason I get up in the mornings and the reason I don't run away from home so to speak.  He's what keeps me going every day and striving through all the hardships. I'd be totally lost without him.

Chocolate motivates me to get out of bed.  An empty refrigerator motivates me to go grocery shopping.  A potential love relationship motivates me to put some lipstick on. 

Make sense?
