Motivation is a powerful tool that can be applied to all aspects of our lives. Motivation fuels our attitudes to do our best in what we're trying to achieve. It also builds our confidence, that inside feeling knowing we can do anything we put our minds to. I would hope for most people motivation is what gets you up in the morning and gives you that drive to make your day a great day! I know it is for me! To achieve success in your personal or business life motivation is a must characteristic to sustain.
Here is a awesome story i love to read and share written by the late Dr. Ken McFarland who was an educator, public speaker, author and conservative commentator:
It seems a gentleman worked on the 4:00 P.M. to midnight shift, and he always walked home after work. One night the moon was shining so brightly he decided to take a shortcut through the cemetery, which would save him roughly a halfmile walk. There were no incidents involved so he repeated the process on a regular basis, always following the same path. One night as he was walking his route through the cemetery, he did not realize that during the day a grave had been dug in the very center of his path. He stepped right into that grave and immediately started desperately trying to get out. His best efforts failed him, and after a few minutes, he decided to relax and wait until morning when someone would help him out.
He sat down in the corner and was half asleep when a drunk stumbled into the grave. His arrival roused the shift worker since the drunk was desperately trying to climb out, clawing frantically at the sides. Our hero reached out his hand, touched the drunk on the leg, and said, "Friend, you can't get out of here..."-but he did! Now that's motivation!
“People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily."~Zig Ziglar
