You Get to Decide
Well, it's official y'all, I have officially declared my major! I am extremely happy, happy, happy, and want to share this exciting news! By the time I graduate from Motlow State Community College, I will be graduating with an A.S. in Sociology and an A.A. in Psychology. With also having completed some classes for my future minor: Physical Education.
This makes me super excited because I'm one of those people who works best with an end goal. Yes, I did pick up extra classes and it may take me longer to graduate, but I'm okay with that! (and, so is my mama.) By having this end goal in mind, I am working towards my goal: being a teacher and a coach!
I have found [one of] MY motivation[s]!
With every paper, test, and assignment, I know that I am one step closer to my end goal!
So of course, I have to ask you a question now! Ready?
What motivates you?
Everyday, what motivates you to get out of the bed in the morning? What motivates you to get through the day?
You sure can't deny the fact that you have a motivation. It's what helps us get through the day, but it can be different for everybody. We all have worldly motivations like coffee, food, money, success, etc... But y'all, we should also have spiritual motivations to! The ultimate one of course being getting into Heaven! Everyday when we wake up, that's a gift that the Lord has given us.
Even the simple motivation of making it to tomorrow should be enough to make it through a bad day.
When it comes to assignments, projects, and other things like this, the Lord specifically tells us to do all things unto Him. Knowing that as His children, we should be motivated to do everything as unto Him! I mean, how could that be any more clear?
So, I challenge you to find your motivation outside of just worldly things. I pray that the motivation to serve the Lord with your all is a motivation that you have! Trust me, that doesn't always happen, life is rough and we get disappointed, but stay motivated and keep pressing toward that final goal! You get to decide that goal though.
Speaking of motivation, I need to get motivated to finish this Psychology paper.. So, on that note, y'all have a great night!

You're right that I am happy that it might take you a little longer to finish up at Motlow so you can stay home with me a bit longer.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited that you have declared your major and that you have your end goal in mind.
You keep on keeping on baby and keep doing all as unto Him!!
Love this post, and I definitely needed this reminder! Even though I may have other earthly goals, my main goal and motivation for all of my life needs to be to do it all unto the Lord, serving Him. Thank you for this post! :-)
