What drives me?

Many are the times when people ask others about what motivates them. As much as this question may sound simple, many people stagger about giving the proper answer. I remember in one of the management practice class, the lecturer asked each one of us to say what it is that motivates us to wakeup early in the morning. Strange answers were given by various people; some said a cup of coffee motivated them to wakeup. As though, that was not fun enough, some people said that singing birds pushes them to get out of bed. Most interesting, one of the girls said “I wakeup for the fear of failing to accomplish my goals.

Then it was my turn, I was the third last person and therefore, I had some hard thinking to do so as to give a clever answer. Let’s put being clever aside, on a more serious note the goals that I have set for myself are what motivates me to get out bed, bath, and get onto a shuttle and hence, be at varsity. People should set goals in order to work towards them and thus, realise their personal potential and feel fulfilled. It is therefore, important that people have something to look up to in life and inturn be motivated by that.
