Motivation:

Motivation is in all of us. We are all motivated by something. What motivates you? What helps you get up in the morning? What helps you in those dark times when the shadows and voices want to eat you alive? What helps you to keep going? What helps you do what you do?

A lot of things motivate me. One thing that helps me get up in the morning is that I get to see the people I care about! Just talking to the people I care about makes me so happy that I got up that morning.

In those dark times when the shadows and voices want to eat you alive I just think about what's ahead, I like to think about what will be laid in front of me in the future I like to think the bad times we have prepare us for what's ahead I like to think that there's more out there for me.

What helps me to keep going? All I have to do is think about the people who care. Tell myself that if I gave up they'd be sad, if I tell myself that people care about me enough times I'll believe it even if it's just for a second, it gives me hope.

I do what I do for other people. I try to do something for someone each day. It makes me feel happy, it makes me feel elated. I also do it for my friends and family. I know that if my grades slip my parents would do anything to help, if I was sad I know my friends would be there for me.

So, now that I've shared my motivation, tell me your story. Remember that people care, I care. Keep your head up and remember when you feel down... remember your why! Remember why you get up in the morning.
