Motivation is something that energizes and forces a person to act. It directs a person to achieve his/her goals, or satisfy his/her needs and wants. It is an ability that everyone uses to get results. As everyone, I have this ability and I practice it. The most important things that motivate me are; goal, love and success. Therefore, I make goals, of course realistic goals, I love what I’m doing and I enjoy my successes. Creating goals in my life is the first step. Then, because I don’t like to loose, I motivate myself to achieve my goal. Love is another thing that motivates me. It helps me to get up early in the morning, stay up late and doing things that I have to do. Of course it is easy to do what you like, but in real life we have to do things that we don’t like to do. So, love is the power that motivates me to do them. Success is the third thing that motivates me. A little success is enough for me to be motivated to do much more, especially in school. I am not an optimistic person and if I fail a test, it would be the end of the world for me. So, success motivates me to study hard and not giving up. The hunger of learning new things also motivates me to study. Sometimes, while I’m interested in something new, studying I found it interesting and curiosity makes me to study deeper and much more that I had to. Motivation really affects my learning. For example I was doing a project when I found that I am interested in something that wasn’t required to study, it was just for information. Motivation forces me to do research and make my project much more interesting than I planned before. I found motivation a positive power to succeed in life and I believe that everyone could have it. If not, it could be learned as a skill. Motivation required actions and providing it, you’ll see the results. As in a circle it will increase your motivation. Everyone has been given the ability to increase the motivations, just make a choice and take actions. If you don’t take action, nothing ever happen. The choice is yours. It is up to you. You pay the price, you reap the reward!

In my life I don’t have a lot of things that motivate. Most of all I get excited of the nature. Every morning I get up and admire of the beautiful morning. Again, beautiful day, morning, sun, blooming trees, sinning birds, fresh air, beautiful flowers. I never seen such weather like this. Life is wonderful I want to live. I like all the seasons of the year. The nature doesn’t have a bad weather. We have to learn to see the beauty of the weather.

Three things that motivate me are my dreams, my children and my past. My dreams are learn and become a nurse. I have always been interested in the medical field. The human body fascinates me, and I have always been intrigued by plastic surgery. I would like to one day become an assistant or something to the surgeon. My children motivate me to become a better mother and a better person. I thank God for them. Every day is very hard work, but I know that it is all worth it, when I am doing something for my children. My past motivates me because of my parents. They brought me up with the utmost discipline. They were wonderful and special people and now that they are gone I work that much harder because I know that is what they would have wanted. When I am at school, I feel motivated because school and learning intern leads to my dreams. I think that motivation is the reason that you have for doing something. If you are not motivated when you are trying to learn something then you will never learn it. Motivation is key. I think that motivation comes from within. It all depends on the person. If you have things to live for then you are going to be motivated.

Definitely I get motivated when I am at school, for example when I fail a test that motivates me to study harder so that next time a test comes around I don’t stress out too much. I get to learn about my mistakes, and it motivates me to continue going to school so that one day I can have a profession in some field. Surely I feel motivated when I learn something new because it makes me feel good and makes things easier. It keeps my mind active, which helps me stay younger and feel younger. It makes me more interesting, which will get me more interesting friends. It helps make me more creative. Continuing, there are actually three things that motivate me. The first, foremost and always are my children. When I am feeling lazy or just don’t want to do something like cooking, I think about my family, and if it will be good for them or help them in any way, I will do it. Nothing motivates me more than my family. The second thing that motivates me is going to church every Saturday and taking my kids and know that they are learning the word of God, as well as contributing to church. The third thing that motivates me is food. Oh yeah! i a wonderful motivation. I like to plan things around food. For instance, when I am in college I would tell myself I will go out to a favorite restaurant or ice cream place if I got an A on a paper. It worked well. I can even get motivated to lose weight by promising myself a new outfit or so much money for each pound I lost, usually $100 per pound. One way we can help some increase their motivation is by telling those positive things even if they done something wrong, like not playing very well at a basketball game, by telling them you did great, keep it up, this motivates them to keep going and to not give up easily.

One thing that motivates me is my future. My future tells me that i should try hard in school and get good grades so i can succeed in life. Also, my family and friends motivate me too. They make me feel very happy inside. They are always there for me. When i am sad, they make me happy by making me feel better. I would feel very empty with out them. I can not imagine my life with my friends and family. Being motivated is very important becuase without being motivated you would get no where in life. We can help other people have motivations by telling them that will happen if they do not get motivated. I feel very good when i learn something new. When i learn something new, i thank my family and friends becuase they are the ones who motivate me to do good in school.

Three things that motivate me are my parent, my life and my boy friend. When I was a child my family was very poor. So, my parents worked very hardly. They just slept 5 or 6 o’clock everyday. They loved me too much. They worked every day, but I never was hungry only one day. They prepared for me everything at home. after that, my parents were richer than some home .everyday my mother tell with me if I love her I need to study to has a good job. They didn’t need what me just to need me has a good live. I thought, my parent said true. They save money for me to study so I need to try.

Three things that motivated me: First, love of my family motivates me to succeed and be able to raise their standard of living to provide them all their needs. Another thing that motivates me is my desire for children of my own in the future. I want to succeed so that I will be in a position to them proper upbringing and adequate education. I want my children to have an edge to succeed in this world. Education motivates me to improve my life and to be financially independent. For instance, I believe education is a bridge that helps to get improvement in my life, without education you can make money but it will not have guarantee and you don’t show any progress in your life. As a result, I am planning to study medical profession for the future and to get a good job thereby improve my life and help my family. For me motivation means that your motivate to do or achieve something because of your own enthusiasm or interest, without needing pressure or the advice from others. Finally, some way to increase their motivate, by encourage them to do something and showing them an example of yourself.

Motivation is a big part of success. If a person is not motivated, she or he will not bother doing something at all. I believe anything we do in live it’s because we are motivated by something to do it. I believe that motivation does affect learning. You don’t want to learn something just because. You want to learn something because you have a need to know something new. That is what motivating you to read or to find information on something. Motivation is a great thing. It moves people, it guides people, and it helps to set a goal. There are many things that can motivate people in life. The most important things in life for me which motivate me are becoming successful as an individual, raising a family, and being a help to the community in which I live. I do feel motivated when I am at school. I see other peoples’ eagerness for knowledge. And it helps me to stay motivated and focused on my goals. We can help people stay motivated by showing them what they can achieve if they stay motivated.

my three things that motivate me are my three little children, my grand children. For them I need up early on the morning and come home late. Five days a week I start work at six on the morning, I need stand up at four because I work on Grass Valley and it is one hour far away, but I want to give them all the basics needs to live. Not it is easy for me after work go to school, and arrive home at nine thirty on latter. But they have not body else to support them. Always day to day I learn something new, and I feel motivate to improve my life. To increase the motivation to other, I thing it is whit our example, I talk to my son’s how important it is for them to be better. The education it is the best the best way to live rich on knowledge. All young people need go to school and be prepared for the future.

Motivation is the activation or energization of goal .I think we all need to have motivated in our life. Human, originally is goal oriented. Everybody have a plan for future and how could it happen? Just to have motivate to get to goal.absolutely, when I learn something new I feel motivated and it does affect learning .I feel I did and I do something positive and do forward the goal. Everybody has a standard for success in life, I do too. For me, if my wife and my duauther to be happy that’s motivate me and I feel success. Especially my daughter that she is the big motivation for me, last year was the first year and first time we moved to united state, it was horrible, actually last year was hardest moment in my life, I had motivate to be successful and find a way to be stable in this country. when I meet someone and he help us to find a child care office for our child, I said to myself: I think we find a way so I have to be active to get that, it was going to last about three month but finally it was done and our daughter went there, then I felt relax that my daughter to be stable. But I still worried for my wife, she wanted to get a job, she and I were looking for job for her then god bless to us again and she meet someone in Iranian church in greenback street she help her to get a job in a Montessori school that us couldn’t believe that when she was stable too I felt better. Now I have to do improve my job and learning English to be success in my life.

Three things that motivate me are: my parents, a good book and somebody's help. My parents have always encouraged me to do my best. They always give me a good advice. They are my main motor to work hard and achieve my goals. They are the best parents. They have taught a good manners and I always try to not disappoint them.

I was thinking what some things that motivate me. In my life I don’t have special things but I can say. I am very happy because I can live in this world. I can see, walk and my mind is clean. Also I happy because my God gives me a lot of special days and people in my live. I have a lot of friends and I have very good family. Every day when I woke up the sun is shining, the birds are singing. Also I try to be good mother for my children and good wife, daughter. Also I try to study this language. Sometimes it is hard but. When I see on the people who studied hard when then arrived in the USA and now they know this language very good and have very good job in their life. I have to motivate this thing in my live.

The three things that motivate me are my family, my faith in god and desire for the self improvement. The motivation to study comes from my belief that a person should always try to become better and learning is one of the ways to improve myself. But learning for the sake of learning is wrong I believe that when we learn something we need to use it and use it to help people around us.

The three things that motivate me is my children, my wife, and my grand children. I always try my very best so they will feel happy, and be happy. Yes I do feel motivated when I am at college. I always try to learn new things and when I learn the I do feel motivated. Motivation is what helps me to learn new stuff. I would describe motivation as a psychological feature that arouses an organism to action toward a desired goal. That is how I would explain motivation. Yes motivation does affect learning if you are learning and trying to get to some goal like getting a job after highschool motivation does help you learn. To say that they will get this or get that after they finsh learning this subject or get all "A" in college for one semester. You have to motivate a kid so he will learn good saying stuff like I will buy you a new scooter or I will get you some sort of video game your kid will be motivated and will eventually try harder.

Three things that motivate me are future, family and religion. I’ve always cared about future and what it will hold for us. The future motivates me right now to do things that I don’t really want to do. For example, going to school and learning English language. I do it because I want to be able to understand people and be able to ask them for help if needed. My family motivates me as well. I have a wife and three amazing kids. I wake up in the morning thinking of them, how they still need my help with everything even though they are grown up. The reason why I said that my religion motivates me is because I try to be like Jesus. He was always kind to everyone and thought people to be good no matter what, to stand up for truth. I believe that being nice to people brings change. A simple example would be if someone is verbally fighting you and instead of screaming back you just simple back off and not say anything. That person will eventually feel sorry for yelling because you didn’t say anything back. I sure do feel motivated when I am at school. Every day I learn something new and that excites me. It’s like living another day to discover something new. Motivation is kind of a hard word to describe. It’s almost the same as being inspired to do something. I think motivation affects learning. The more you feel motivated to learn the more you learn, as simple as that. I think if people set great goals in their lives they will motivate them to live and learn.

Motivation is a very important aspect in our everyday life. Everyone needs motivation to successfully complete any task, but why it is so important? In my opinion, the motivation is a force that makes us to do something. We don’t begin to work without motivation or if we do, we will never complete it. Even if the person commits the crime, the first question that detective asks: “What was your motive?” Other words motivation is a reason for the action. Everybody has their individual reasons to motivate themselves, depending on their life and interests. Three reasons that motivate me are family, goals and God. First, my family is a big motivation for me. There is nothing better than to know that you need to somebody. Every time I am coming home I know that as soon as I open the door, my child jump on me with a true smile on face. What else do I need? I feel that I am happiest man in the world. For instance: “It is a Saturday beautiful afternoon. I am sitting in the park while writing the journal and watching my angel playing around. Right now she gives me motivation to breathe and write.” Second, my goals motivate me. The biggest motivation nowadays is my education. I work full time and sometimes I feel tired and ready to give up the school, but motivation that I want to be a successful cartoonist keeps me afloat. Finally, my other important motivation is God. We need to believe in something, it is a basic human need that motivates us through the life. I believe that there is one-God and I believe that he motivates us and leads us where we are supposed to go.

Tradition philologists say that there are three things which motivate people: family, religion, and national feelings. I agree with this expression because it is true. If someone ask me, “Do you family motivate you?” My answer is yes because I love my wife and my children. I am ready to do everything for their happiness. I can work persistently and a long time for my family well-being. I like to know that my wife and my children have everything what they need. Second motivation in my life is Lord Jesus. Everything that I have in my life they were presented by Him: my life, my health, my family, my wife, all good, and my future. It motivates me to be and do as He. Third my motivation in my life is my nation. I was born in Ukraine and I love my folks. I love their history, their costumes, language, tradition songs and poems. I care about their future, so I wish to them economic prosperity and happiness. These three things motivate me in my job, in learning, and in my dreams. They are senses of my life.

There three things that motivate me. The life motivates to be a better. I like one of the sentence: Jesus said “ All things what ever you would that people should do to you, do you so to them” for this is the law” I have to be a good person because we have only one life on this the World. We should live a adequately life . We can see a lot of things around us. The God has created all this for people.

Motivation could be a driving force that compels a body to do an action to achieve a goal. There are a lot of thinks that can motivate a person, that can be money, are doing it for pleasure, for a better life. A lot of people are motivation for life by going to school. I believe and it is the same with me. Because I feel motivate by learning something new at school and day by day. At school we can motivate people for there life, more like helping them to be successful in there life. If you have motivation is the best for you.

People’s lives without motivation are empty. They don’t know where and why they are going. They don’t have goals, so they don’t have their future. Motivation is very important for me because it is helpful and necessary to be successful. The first thing that motivated me is my children. I remembered the first their smiles, steps, words, all feelings that they brought in our lives. I’d like my sons will be happy in life, so this dominant idea motivates me to learn and go to my goal. Second, my dream motivates me to be a college student and learn new thing. I am doing this enthusiastically and it always brings me pleasure and enjoyment. Third important thing that motivated me is my faith because without faith I cannot live. It is faith in God, faith in humaneness and kindness. My faith helps me to surmount difficulties and become better in life. My God helps me to be better in life: understand people, help them and never to be disinterested for unfortunate persons. I know that these three things help me that my dream becomes true.

People can not even imagine what they can do sometimes if they have motivation. For example, in the difficult situation we find strength and do the things that in daily life we'd never do. People always do everything because of some motivation. First thing that motivates me is God. He gives me the strength to believe in the best future. Second thing that motivate me is my job because i have a difficult job. it motivates me to go to college, and find a better job. Third thing that motivates me is my family because i know that they want to be the best and always supports me.

My three things that motivate me are play, work and do. Those things are important and motivated in my life such as school and work. Especially in school I feel more motivated. I always want to become the greatest student. I always study hard because when I study, I always discover everything new around my life. I was interested with education and I enjoy it. Other motivation helps me feel more energy in education is sports. I like to play sports because they help me feel more relax after school and work. I always play soccer ball and basketball with my cousin on weekend. Sports are the best motivation help people have more energy and force to do their activity in life. If people live without motivation, they will get bored and they think life is difficult

Motivation is another key to success. Ironically, success is also a key to motivation. When I am good at something and things are going well I am motivated to do them better. That also makes me more likely to do that again. I am motivated to do something when I see that it will benefit me somehow. People use money and paychecks, to motivate themselves to work harder and longer at work. Getting a degree and therefore a better job and more money, motivates people to go to college and study hard. Also the feeling of being smarter and learning something new motivates people to learn. To me, motivation is a desire and reason to do something. Motivation is important and it makes people more successful. A way to increase motivation in people is to show them that whatever they are doing, will benefit them or others in many ways.

There are many important things, that can motivate me. The most important is love. It is an energy that can stimulate people to change their selves, make them happy, love everything in life and do the best and beautiful. The next, are kids. Kids can motivate us to do the right things, because parents are example for their kids, Criticism of children motivates to be better. Another one is money, success in life. It is hard be happy without money. It is significant to make money by doing what you can and really want to. It has to be what people want to devote your life and bring them satisfaction. In my opinion, it is success! After that, I would let myself have what I want, be where I want, see and listen to what I like.

Motivation is inner state more than something that one person does to another. You can not motivate people.You can only create the conditions in which people feel motivated. Films and books seem to tell us that motivation in management is something that people to do to others. Motivation, in my own opinion can come and go. There are dayswhen we feel highly motivated and days when we feel like staying in bed.. in other words, motivation is almost an inner state rather something that one person does to another.

Everyone is motivated by something.I ask myself what motivates me?I realize that the answer could be very personal to some people.When I think about what motivates me,a number of things come to mind.An example is,setting an example for my children is always a good motivating factor.I want to be a lovely mother to them also,to be proud of me and set a good example.I want them to be strong,self sufficient,and who could take care of themselves if they had to.I want to be the best I can be.Helping people is the second motivating factor,I always want to help people around me and respect them and to always be honest to them.No need to pretend to be more than I am because the people know me and appreciate me.I try to be kind and generous with everyone.The third thing is the most special and important thing that motivates me the most and that is believing in God.No,I don't feel motivated when I'm in school because I try to focus on my learning.No, I don't feel motivated when I learn some thing new.I describe motivation as something we need to survive in our daily life.Motivation does not affect learning because you might need motivation in your learning.I think people can improve their motivation by getting better and better at motivating.

Three things that motivate me are:my family, bad grades, and school. My family motivates me to do a better job at everything, bad grades motivate me to study more, and I feel motivated when I'm in school because I learn new things and come closer to my future career. I think motivation affects learning, because when you are motivated, you study more efficiently. Motivation plays a big role in learning.

The only thing that motivates me is the BIBLE. Love is one. When reading the BIBLE it motivates you to be better in different kinds of things. Being kind to others is another motivation. Not being picky and thank God for everything He gives you. Yes I do feel motivated when I come to school because I see how I do on the tests and I try harder to get a better grade. I think motivation is that a person is pushing him/herself to do something. Trying harder. Motivation does affect learning.
