If someone asked you what motivates you, would you have an answer? It doesn't matter if it's fitness related, work related, or anything else. Would you have an answer?
This picture says it all. Well, minus the hubs who's not in this shot, but motivates me too.
My kids motivate me, for more reasons than I can begin to count. They keep me in line without knowing it. They make me strive to be the best. (Same goes for the hubs.)
Then there's my brother. I've never seen someone get so excited to be allowed to workout before swim practice (that way he won't get so tired during meets). And I kinda look at it this way, I can't have my 18 year old brother putting me to shame (even though I only swim if I absolutely have to.)
Of course that LBD hanging in my closet, Brittnae Giesau (Beachbody coach), Vannessa Gutierrez (Kawasaki Disease Foundation board member) & sunny days also motivate me.
What motivates you?
Summer rain, large bodies of water, the outdoors, princess Odie, my students, my patients, and chocolate!
ReplyDeleteBtw, I love the pic of the kids and Brian!
Thanks! (I forgot the chocolate somehow too, LOL.)
DeleteHonestly - praise and a feeling of accomplishment, so pretty much getting things done! Hopefully that doesn't make me a terrible person :) Love my daughter to pieces, she motivates me to disconnect from my computer haha.
ReplyDeletenice fun picture! everyone seems to be having a blast! We just booked a few trips to get away and just veg out.
ReplyDeleteMy kids motivate me too. Looks like a great time for all.
ReplyDeleteYour kids are beautiful! And my daughter motivates me too, more than anything else ever has. I want her to look at me and want to be a strong, motivated woman.
ReplyDeleteMy kids motivate me too, but so do my husband and friends. When people tell me I encourage them, then it encourages me more!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and husband push me to do things that I never thought possible.
ReplyDeleteLovely post. I have learned that I have to put some tangible and some wish list goals in front of myself to be successful. Today, I just found out that my new business, www.inspiringkitchen.com, was published as a part of an article on new business startups in Chicago by Crain's Chicago Business. Working hard at whatever you do, does have positive results!
ReplyDeleteI can surely say my family, friends and boyfriend motivates me to be the best I can be. Lovely post! :)
ReplyDeleteHa, I love the sibling rivalry. We've got that in our house between the two oldest boys too, but in a fun way.
