YOUR game plan?

<p>I just wanted to hear some thoughts...so post the following:</p>

<p>What keeps YOU going? What gives you the drive to keep pushing and doing better for the SAT, school, tests, projects, job, whatever? What is your motivation to make your self work harder and not just give up?</p>

<p>And another important one -
What stops you from being LAZY? </p>

<p>Btw...don't give answers like "my parents will yell at me if I don't keep working", "I'll get in trouble" or "My laziness helps me to do well", however true those may be. :)</p>

<p>Okay let's hear the ideas/thoughts!</p>

<p>What I do - I think about how bad it would be and how much of a dissapontment it would be if I don't get what I want in the future just because I didn't work. I think about what a shame it would be if I had everything, the time, the materials, a brain - but I didn't put them to use in the right way and will end up like working n McDonalds and not going to college or something if I don't put in some effort. I know...pretty extreme, but it works.</p>

<p>I think about how I might start spelling atrociously if I don’t focus. It really disappoints me to see others be a “dissapontment” to their family. ;)</p>

<p>Also, analyzing my grammar prevents me from being lazy. I would never work IN McDonalds… I would work AT McDonalds.</p>

<p>lol so sorry about the grammar :slight_smile: thanks for catching that!</p>

<p>Some people just have great hard working ethic and stick to things that they enjoy doing. They do not need to push themselves, they never did. They just doing well because they cannot see themselves doing badly. It is how you preceive yourself, what makes you happy, nobody can do it for you, parents push will not help, your own push can only go so far also, it just going to stress you out. Being genius is a great exception, cannot rely on it, very few are lucky to be lazy and successful at the same time. Got to enjoy, work hard and know what relaxes you, have great time with friends or other R&R, like music, sports, gym…whatever.</p>
