Hey everybody! I hope you are doing well!

I was thinking maybe today we could talk about motivation. Living with depression is not easy, and it is important to be compassionate toward every person who deals with this ongoing battle.

Do you struggle with motivation? What motivates you when you wake up in the morning? What is your main source of motivation? When you feel very bad what do think about that helps you keep going?

Take care,

Not really sure. There are good days as well as bad ones. I’ve lost my wife 3 years ago and it’s a struggle but I try to remain positive when I remember. My current motivation is to change my living environment by decorating the kitchen and living room. Not me actually decorators.

My motivation to keep going, is that recently I have gone through some serious illnesses and autvived, un like my angel in heaven and my late nephew who died within 3 hours of being diagnosed with emblems in his lungs. Also I have still got a lot to achieve in my life

Such as visiting new places and meeting people of different cultures and races and learning about their ways of life.i love psychology, sociology and anthropology
