Motivation is a difficult concept for me. It’s word like “joy” or “enthusiasm” that can only be defined by action. In other words, if you see my behavior, you might say that I am happy – engaged – furious – hilarious – or, just plain motivated. Motivation is a bit of a mystery, but behaviors and actions are real, tangible and observable. What I like about this post is how you explain that your motivation happens in action; I agree! And, you always seem so positive…I’m not sure what motivates you to be such a positive force, but I’m sure glad that you are!
I agree that motivation is a tough concept like joy or enthusiasm. These are the things I think about so I think others may also have thoughts about them. I hope.
I think my grandma was my positive role model. She was the sweetest person and always had a kind word & a smile for everyone. She was loved and respected by everyone who knew her. She had a very hard life and never once complained but always looked for the positive in everything. I miss talking to her but she gave me lots and lots to think about and was an amazing example to me.
I appreciate your kind comments Chris! Positively,
What motivate us all is what make us unique at the end of the day.. we do what we need to do and a little bit more, we reach our goals and a litter big more…
I think that if you love what you do and do what you love then you reach a very very good state of motivation 🙂 but it’s not trivial.
i’m a big fan of @susanborst:twitter and super happy to see why she is motivated 🙂 – a very very smart person that always article her insights so logically and passionately 🙂
