What motivates you and/or inspires you?

[Killswitch]

Some people find inspiration from loved ones or objects like some pictures or songs. So out of curiosity, what inspires you?

What motivates you to persevere in your endeavors or the risks you take?

 

[Defiant]

Usually music, occassionally I'll hear someone say something that indirectly lights a fire in me. I also used to do a lot of writing so if I'm feeling a bit down I'll look back on some of my old work and smile.

Basically, I've learned that motivation and happiness is something that has to come from within you. Sometimes you just have to put yourself first and make yourself happy no matter whether other people approve of what you're doing or not. You can't expect other people to give you anything. Do your own thing and don't try to model or criticise your own life based on what someone else has.

Maybe I'm being vague, but that's usually what I tell myself when I feel I need a boot in the ass.

I am motivated by my passion for the things I do. There is nothing in the world I love more than working, which inspires me to have a better life than the average American. Whether you believe it or not, this world is driven on money and it's KING.

Motivation for me comes from my drive from trying to be the best at what I do. I've seen people get up while sick, fever, but as long as they can walk they are going to work so ya know what... I'ma do the same thing. As long as I can walk, as long as my legs still work that means I can still do what needs to be done and I'ma push myself to do what needs to be done.

I also use music as well to keep the motivation going. Music can be a very powerful tool if used correctly.

Motivation comes from my pasion. I alway wanted to be the best in everything I started so far.

It's all music. I can be passionate in something but I'll always be too lazy to accomplish it.

 

[Onyx]

Music my friends, music inspires me in many different ways that I am too lazy to explain right now (because I'm not listening to music at the moment).

 

[Tooey]

Not to sound like everybody else, but music is a big and crucial part. I'm a poet and writing is my biggest passion. I can't go a day without writing, whether it'd be shitty or in the works of being something great. But I need music to help give me a kick. Hip Hop is and always has been a giant influence on me. There's more but if you know me and the people I listen to - you can catch the references I put throughout.

 

[Duke Nukem]

I think pictures inspire me alot aswell and music, but ones with peoples stories over coming problems is the main one

Music helps maintain my mood for doing something, it usually doesn't inspire me graphic wise. A song will click an idea in my head for something i want too write, but when I'm designing something it's usually inspired by something I've seen. I'm more visually inspired than hearing.
