View all responses

In a world that often feels like it’s spinning too fast, pausing to ask ourselves “What motivates you?” can be like finding a moment of stillness amidst the whirlwind.

“It’s a question that tugs at the core of our being, urging us to delve into the very essence of what keeps us moving forward.

As I sit here, reflecting on this simple yet profound prompt, a smile spreads across my face. The answer isn’t just a single thing but a beautiful tapestry woven from the threads of life’s experiences, passions, and dreams.”

The Power of Purpose

Purpose is the compass that guides us through life’s journey. It’s the whisper in our hearts that tells us why we wake up each morning, why we strive to be better, and why we keep going even when the road gets tough.

For me, the purpose is found in the art of creation—whether it’s painting a vibrant canvas, crafting a story that stirs the soul, or penning down poems that echo the sentiments of the heart.

The act of creating something meaningful, something that resonates with others, is a powerful motivator that fills my days with a sense of fulfillment and joy.

A Journey Through the Heart

The Joy of Connection

We are social beings, and our connections with others are at the heart of what motivates us.
The laughter shared with loved ones, the warmth of a slow dance with a partner, the tender moments spent with a cherished granddaughter—these are the moments that remind us of the beauty of life.

The stories we share, the memories we create, and the bonds we forge are like fuel for the soul, igniting a fire within us that keeps us going, no matter what challenges we face.

The Thrill of Learning

Curiosity is a powerful motivator. The desire to learn, to grow, to explore the unknown is what keeps life exciting and fresh. Whether it’s diving into a new book, experimenting with a new recipe, or exploring the health benefits of garlic in my next blog post, the thrill of discovery is a constant source of motivation.

It’s the excitement of knowing that there is always something new to learn, something new to experience, and something new to understand that keeps me eager to embrace each day.

The Call of Legacy

As we journey through life, the idea of legacy begins to take root in our minds. What do we want to leave behind? What impact do we want to have on the world?

For me, it’s about leaving a legacy of creativity, love, and wisdom. It’s about knowing that the stories I write, the art I create, and the lessons I’ve learned will continue to inspire and motivate others long after I’m gone.

This sense of legacy is a powerful motivator, driving me to live each day with intention and purpose.

The Pursuit of Happiness

At the end of the day, what truly motivates us is the pursuit of happiness. It’s the desire to live a life that is rich with joy, love, and contentment.

It’s about finding those moments of pure bliss—whether it’s sipping a cup of mint tea on a quiet morning, dancing in the rain with a heart full of joy, or simply taking a moment to appreciate the beauty of the world around us.

Yes, Happiness is the ultimate motivator, the guiding star that lights our way through life’s journey.

As I reflect on the question “What motivates you?” I realize that the answer is as complex and multifaceted as life itself.

It’s a beautiful blend of purpose, connection, learning, legacy, and happiness—a tapestry of motivations that keeps me moving forward with a smile on my face and a heart full of gratitude.

So, what motivates you? Take a moment to reflect, and you might just find that the answer is closer to your heart than you ever imagined.
