What Motivates You?

For me, it’s the constant need to learn from the best and be surrounded by other people with similar passions. Speaking to these people and learning from them is so motivating to me and continues to push me beyond what even I expect myself to be able to accomplish.

Hi Jenn...

I think that there's a key thing here in your story: You envisioned meeting your social media icons...maybe not as soon as it happened, but you believed it could and would happen at some point. Perhaps you even figured it was inevitable.

I think that sometimes people just can't envision their success..or the things that will lead them to happiness. They have some deep doubt or insecurity that tells them they're not deserving of success. So to me the key is envisioning that goal.

What drives me is that even in my darkest times I can see possibilities. And honestly, I don't let myself look too far into the future or worry about the past.

Unlike you, I don't have heroes...but I look for that inner hero, envision it can be there, and so it becomes true. And I work each day to realize a little more of it. This keeps me working through things I don't like to do...but which are necessary to get a little further toward my goals.

Hope I don't sound too out there, lol, for someone who's supposed to be grounded in small business..but it its what it is.

Your post was great..made me think--which I figure is the point. Thanks for sharing it with the BizSugar community!
