Just a thread about motivation. What motivates you? Why do you get up everyday?

Grinding coffee, the smell of coffee, the morning sunrise, dew on the grass, sun salutations with yoga, birds chirping, a morning shower with just the sun coming through the small window, an absolutely delicious breakfast, and seeing the love of my life.

I get up in the morning for my three children and their dad.

If I'm feeling low, it's the cats that motivate me to get up. One of them will keep head butting me until I get up and give him treats. Otherwise, I get up because I want to go to work and contribute to our household and future. And of course, whether good day or bad, Igottatend to our furry, little masters.

What gets me to get up in the morning is sometimes nothing. The feelings of dread and anxiety of so much to do is not something I look forward to. However by starting to do one thing at a time step by step motivates me to accomplish more throughout the day. Mainly it's the realization that things could be so much worse and that I am in fact blessed and thankful.

One of the things that motivate me to get up each morning, is my love. He keeps me on my toe and really motivates me to do what all is best for me. I couldn't ask for anything more. <3

The only reason I get up in the morning is because I want my day to be a better day than yesterday, I wake up and I say to my self "don't worry you will have your friends back" I also say "someone will miss you today" and I just get up trying to smile even though inside me I am so sad every day, I manage to wake up saying those things even if they are not true. ~I hope you have a beautiful day!! ~

My job, I'm a teacher and trying to be a good teacher and there for my students really motivates me. On here I'm motivated by the fact I feel that I'm paying back some of the help I received when I was experiencing some really tough times. My ambitions and goals motivateme in other aspects of my life :)

Nothing. I don't know why I wake up.

I feel the same way, but I keep getting up.
