What Is Your Motivation?

     Motivation is nothing more than a state of mind that bends and changes according to our will.  It starts with one small seed of an idea and with proper nurturing, it grows, matures, and produces beautiful blossoms of success.  Motivation will fill your life with a natural high that proves to be stronger than any drug.  On the flip side of that coin, it can also whither away and die if you don't feed and water it consistently by adding nutrition to the soil.  This is the period where true champions of success will emerge and those that lose their drive will fall in line behind those that can push up and over the wall of discouragement.
     That fire burning within us all remains in the form of small embers until we discover our driving force.  For me, the driving force is my ultimate goal of happiness and contentment.  For others, it can be individual goals and accomplishments or possibly even the challenge itself.  Your fuel depends on what sort of person you are but whatever it is, you must build on it.  Without growth you are standing still and allowing the world to turn while you watch and wonder "what happened?" 
     Farrah Gray once said "Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs.”  It is more true now than ever.  Technology has increased the speed of our world ten fold and information is easier to find and cheaper than ever.  All you need is the consistent motivation to search it out.  Build on your personal driving force, keep consistently motivating yourself, and continue to make moves towards your future, or build someone else's dream for them.
