Motivation! What is it good for?

Well actually motivation and goal setting is really important! Without it we had have no direction in life, no idea of where to go or what we want to achieve. If we don't set motivating goals then we end up aimlessly walking around questioning why we aren't getting anywhere.

But how do we go about setting these goals? Join us on Monday the 20th March at 8pm AEDT to find out, or click Reply to start the conversation now!

Where do you think your motivation came from? Did you motivation waiver?

My motivation wavers all the time. It's super fluid - sometimes I'm really into what I'm doing, and sometimes I just don't want to do anything and UGH (although that might not be lack of motivation, that might just be a dip in mental health, idk). My motivation comes from a bunch of places, I think the two main ones are fear (like fear of consequences about having not done my maths homework), and success (like finishing an awesome creative project).

When is a time that you've been really motivated to work towards something?

If it's a project I'm SUPER into, that helps me with motivation. Also if it's something important, or if it's due really soon, I tend to be motivated to do things, but I much prefer the first reason. I did NaNoWriMo last year (where you write 50,000 words of a novel in the month of November) and that was really motivating because I had a daily goal to meet, and a bunch of other nerdy amateur writers supporting me.
