What Motivates Me

Motivation, motivation has not been a huge part of my life up to this point.
For the first time in my life I have had to give things up and had to prioritize my time more wisely. I find that there is a great need to organize, keep a schedule and communicate with friends and family. This has been hard for me, because in the past I have not been the most organized person. Examples of this would be characterized by my being late everywhere and to every important event, loosing my wallet, driver’s license, cell phone and I would leave my keys in the car so that
I would not misplace them. Milestones that have made me a more motivated person; I quit my job at
Publix approximately 5 months ago. I did this with the intention of going on a long term missions trip. This fell through and I had to find new work. I continue to plan for extended mission work, but this has turned my focus to being better prepared, thus my recent road of pursuing education. This has motivated me to become more organized, and forced me to become a better communicator with friends and family. Furthermore I have started to keep a calendar and a day planner. Seeing what is coming up each week motivates me to get started early and to do the best that I can to finish these things well. Even though my wallet continues to allude me, I have purchased a new wallet and have managed to keep this since I started school, I am working at being better about bringing in my car keys and hanging them on the key rack, but I still need a cell phone. A quote I recently read while preparing for this assignment sums up my thoughts about what motivates me;
The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own

    I owe a great deal of gratitude towards my work experiences. Without them, I would be having an extremely difficult time in college because "As a college student, you will be in complete control of your time and how you use it" (Surviving Freshman Year). One of the experiences that I gained while working in accounting was the ability to manage time well. With the lack of employees and increasing work-load, I had to be able to complete of all my work in a given time, and needless to say, with almost perfect accuracy. That was a very challenging task, but the only way I was able to keep my head on straight was by placing everything into organized stacks ranging in order of importance. I have taken this experience and reused it for school purposes.…
