Recently I've been feeling pretty crap. Why? I haven't been able to keep myself motivated to do anything. I mean all throughout my life, up until I finished high school, all I wanted to do was achieve a high enough score in my final exam to enter university. And since I've done that I don't really know what I want after completing my degree at university. I mean, sure... I get a job, money, live my life just the way I'm supposed to live it. But doesn't that seem a little stock standard to anyone, or is it just me? To me, I wouldn't feel happy just doing that.

So what keeps you doing what you do? Be it school, work or college/university.

No one really knows what they want until its near that time. I personally lack most motivation for damn near everything, except the enjoyment of seeing people frustrated and turning to people online, its always worth a good laugh. What you need to do now is get your degree and such then live the way it seems you need to, you'll find out what you want on the way, and if your too slow to realize it and it passes you by, your life goes on.

I think it's normal what you feel
But if you find someone you love and you really want to stay with her
You'll be capable of doing everything with the biggest smile if you're next to the person
At least that is what motivates me my husband and my daughter
Keep working hard I believe in you
You'll find your way

I live for knowledge. It compels me to do anything. Instead of just trying to get a degree, try to find something you honestly want to learn about, and that itself will keep you going.

I agree. What you're feeling right now is pretty normal as far as I know and quite similar to how I was while at uni. Curiousity is a great thing and can be a real driving force. If you can figure out what you're really interested in then it's a matter of putting all of your energy into whatever that might be.

For example, ever since I first came across them I've been interested in computers. So when I went to uni I completed a degree in Computer Science and from there moved into the web development industry. This allows me to keep learning about new technologies and keep up with the stuff that I'm really interested in, as well as keeping my options open within the IT industry as a whole.

blah, thats life. I guess you could say becoming knowledgable is a good enough goal but poeple will always search their entire life for tangible things to hold onto, its makes us feel significant. I think by the time you assess the question whether there any reason to bother going through with this life, you will subconsiously keep searching regardless.

PS, carrot Juice works aswell.

I guess, my dreams to open my own animation studio and my own anime is what keeping me motivated...
And also to get a scholarship to srtudy overseas...
Right now, there're many intelligent people...so competing for a scholarship is really hard...
But because of the scholarship, I'll work really hard to get good results and why do I want the scholarship?
U have more chances if u learn overseas...
I'm determined to open my own animation studio, that's why I wanted to study overseas...^^

Oh yeah, ChinoMareno...besides carrot juice, coffee also works...^^,
