What motivates me day to day? I used to always look at the big picture, everything that I did was leading up to something. That puts to much stress in my life so now I just try to get through each day. Can a motivation change a plan of action? Yes but I have found that motivation changes over time. Motivation changes often for some people.
While I have returned to school only to make a career change (I am not trying to "find" myself), I have noticed that as I get older my motivation has changed. I never hated my former job, in fact I loved it. Now I just want a job that is a job and not my life, one that I will like well enough but is more stable.
As I have become older I realize that I worry about leaving the world a better place. I do think about what I can myself do to contribute to a better world. My husband and I have been planning on volunteering for make a wish. We know there is need in eastern Kentucky. The only reason we have not started as of yet is because we are not sure if we will be staying in Ashland past December. Anyway we plan to start when our relocation plans are sure. I do wonder if this will make any difference at all but I do feel led to do something. I am thankful for my good life and even with its uncertainties it is pretty great. I guess I just feel like if I could help someone else be a little happier even for a while, that it would be a worthwhile thing to do.
