Motivation

1. Why am I here?
A: Education has been important to me and my family. I told myself when I was younger that I will at least get a Bachelor Degree and I wont quit school until I finished it. Plus I want to teach and be a better teacher to my students then my teachers were to me. That is why I am here.

2. What Motivates me?
A: If I can see what I can do or who I can help in the long run that is what usually motivates me. Competing or receiving challenges motivates me to do well or better then I have before.

3. Why do I Succeed?
A: I love the feeling of succeeding or doing something well, or even finding what I can do better. I succeed most by the way I push myself to achieve something or of others expectations of me, they know I can do it and I know I can too.

4. Why do I Fail?
A: Main reason I have failed is either because I do not take the time to succeed, I get worn out and do things half hearted or I just believe I cant continue or cant do it.

5. How do I need to change my perspective and/or motivations in order to succeed in the Secondary Education Program and become a GREAT teacher?
A: I need to continue to try my hardest and take what I am being taught to heart. I need to have a good attitude about school and do the best I can with what I have. Ask questions more to things I don't understand and ask for help when I need it.

How do you motivate yourself when there's no one to compete against?
