I can motivate myself. I am determined to provide my family with high quality food, a nice and safe home to live in, and well-made clothes on their back. Yes, the basic essentials would suffice and I am thankful for my gifts. However, I am capable of attaining far beyond just the essentials.
\nThis desire to provide myself with a high quality of life is my motivation to succeed. I enjoy having an abundance of cash in my bank account because it gives me freedom. If I want to, I can visit a nice restaurant for lunch or buy a pair of shoes just for the fun of it.
\nBy choice, I work hard in order to provide myself with the finer things in life.
\nThere are secondary motivations for success, like I want to make my mom and dad proud or I want bragging rights, but these external factors pale to the motivation I receive from the personal joys of excelling.
