OK, so I took some time off for the Olympics. What could be more motivational than watching the Olympics? I'm not talking about the person who was supposed to win, but the person who did his or her personal best and ended up on the podium - that's motivational!
The Olympic motto is faster, higher, stronger. Maybe we should put that on the mirror in our bathroom so we see that every morning! Imagine, rather than doing the routine, looking at everything we do; can we do it faster, can we set our goals higher and work stronger to get there? I think so! When I look around I see many people who are comfortable just being; just doing their jobs, not striving for anything, not exerting themselves at anything. That's ok, but then don't complain about your lot in life!
Were there any moments in the Olympics that you found motivational?
From the current just finished Olympics, I have to say the passionate way the Canadian ice hockey team responded late in the third period and then to go on and win the game that looked like a sure win for the USA? Inspirational!
I still remember Joannie Rochette when her mother passed away four days before her performance at the 2010 winter Olympics and she went out and competed anyway. Never mind the exceptional physical feats of the many - that is motivational.
