Motivational Talk

                I believe motivation is a big key to the mind and body. Motivation helps get you through tough obstacles. Motivation can help many people through mentally and physical challenges. I personally motivate myself everyday; If it has to do with school work or football practice. I’m a defender in-line and a pretty big guy. We usually run around 8 gassers 3 times a week. On the 5^th gasser, it’s when it starts getting pretty complicated. No one is selfish in my team; we always motivate each other to push forward and not give up.

                “C’mon Pedro, it’s the 4^th quarter, don’t give up man, you got this” Coach John demanded while I ran my last gasser. I then finished passing the line; hearing the cheers was a sensational feeling.

                I wasn’t always a motivational person. I remember the first day of practice when everyone had to run 8 gassers and I only had to run 3. After my first one, I was exhausted and everyone was telling me to get up and continue. They were trying their best to motivate me and get me back on my feet. I just thought about myself and decided to make up an excuse to not run. I dropped down and started to “fix” my shoe because it ‘supposedly” didn’t fit. My teammates were disappointed in me because everyone else finished and I didn’t. I was disappointed at myself as well. I knew that wouldn’t make me any better or make me any fitter. Motivation and hard work is all I really need to achieve my daily goals.

                Motivation is part of the human life. We’ve all gotten so far with just one spec of motivation. Just think about it, if you want to invent, do, or say something, just motivate yourself and do it. Don’t let anyone else stop you. Push yourself and accomplish all your goals. It helped me and many other people, I’m sure it’ll help anybody else. Its free and available anytime as well. Motivate yourself on the daily and don’t let anyone else stop you.
