Motivation

What gets you motivated each day?
Are there certain tasks, that you drag your feet to complete?
Are you one of those that puts things off, to the last minute?

 

Yeah. Work.
Yet I must.
Because alas, I am not special.

 

Remember we work to live, not live to work.

 

A fact never far from my mind, believe you me!
Hey... At least it’s Friday. Amirite

 

And there's my motivation!
Well, that and not starving and keeping a roof over me ole head.

 

It is Frixday, Friday with kisses. xxxx

 

A nice hot cup of coffee to start the morning, along with watching the local news and weather, really helps me.

 

Same as my hubby. He has to watch the news.

 

What a wonderful outlook Mystic.

 

You can never go wrong if you give your best. I try to give my best all the time, but sometimes folks gotta settle for 80 percent from me. That’s still above average, but not so exhausting for me

 

Those morning routines are everything.

 

I get fairly motivated on Friday, must be thought of wine later. lol

 

We all sound very much our age in this thread.

 

Jesus Christ. Dude... Where has your youth gone?

 

I've been unofficially retired for the past 11 years, so...I just goof off, and do whatever I feel like. I want to travel, but I was too young to draw from my IRA, or to draw Social Security. So, with no income, just living off my savings...I couldn't really afford to travel.

But...I am now of an age where I can draw from my IRA. So, my plan now is to continue being frugal, draw an amount from my IRA that won't create a tax burden for me, and save as much as possible, to spend on an overseas trip in a year or so.

So, that's my motivation. Also, once I get a little "disposable" income...start getting my motorcycles fixed up, back on the road. Then I can also make some road trips around the U.S. when the urge hits me.

 

Family. My Grandchildren. And a beer at the end of the day. Also my music.

 

Mates. Helping them out. They help me I help them. Nothing compares to that.

The rising sun usually motivates me, but if it's dreary outside, I can feel it in me bones.
Otherwise, a kind word or smile from others is also encouraging.
In any case, environment does play its role for me.

 

I’ve got to add cardio to it now
