Simple enough. Why do you wake up and get up every morning? Why do you go to work? Get your kids up? Play with your kids? Turn on your computer? Read the newspaper? Read your emails? Call someone? Go outside? Etc. etc. etc. Whatever you do to move during your day... why do you do it?

Hello Melissa, Well as for me i get up everymorning looking forward to a new day. I work as a programs therapist at a nursing home and almost everyday i am at work making programs for residence to do throughout the wholeday. I guess you can pretty much say im an entertainer aside from all the paperwork you gotta do. Well why do i do it you may ask. First, Its a great job and i enjoy it alot. Secondly the money is good and comes with great benefits. It motivates me so much to go to work everyday because i get to interact with so much interesting people and its fun. :D

That is awesome! You have to enjoy what you do to get up every morning and go to work. If you didn't then we would all be driving ourselves straight into the ground. Thank you for the response. Happy MyLotting!

Thanks for the response Kmaram. My kids are a major reason for me to get up. But sometimes I think of the mess they probably made in the few minutes or few hours they were up before me and I cringe and want to head back to bed. LOL.

when i was in school, i felt very hard to wake up but when i thought about my friends , meeting them in school activated me in those times. thinking about them, i used to wake up and get ready soon for school. but now times have changed and college as well as school is over, so its my work now, which motivates or forces me to get up and get ready for work as if being late , i will have to hear scoldings from my boss.

There is only one thing that would keep me from getting up from bed - the thought of going to work. Other than that, I'd wake up about 7:30AM each day, even before the alarm rings.
