Bruh, I’m not even going to lie to y’all having self motivation is extremely hard. Especially when all I want to do is watch YouTube videos all day and scroll through instagram wishing I had the life they have. Then I get a nagging feeling of I should be doing something better and think about my parents.
My self motivation is my parents. I think about all problems I put them through as an unruly teen, all the things they gave up to make sure I was okay and had what I needed. They never gave up on me, never turned their backs on me and always had my best interest in mind even when I don’t see it. I think of all the ways I want to say thank you, things I want to show them and things I want them to be apart of in my life. I think about how time is running out and how they wouldn’t be here forever. That is what pushes me to move different now(I didn’t always have this way of thinking). I want them to have to opportunity to say that’s my kid doing great things.
So find what brings tears to your eyes to push you further, that could be your self motivation do move forward. When I think it’s impossible, I think of my parents.
