Even though it feels like you are so far away from the big leagues, my love for the game kept me motivated to get through the hard times in the minors.

That's what really motivates me: to make my coaches proud, my teammates proud, and the fans proud.
Aaron Rodgers
I know my role on this team, and I'm expected to prepare and to perform every week and play well.

That's what really motivates me: to make my coaches proud, my teammates proud, and the fans proud.
I announced my retirement from international cricket in May 2018 because I wanted to reduce my workload and spend more time with my wife and young sons. Some have insisted I was motivated purely by money. They are wrong.

Abby Wambach
I do a lot of inspirational talks for kids, to motivate them to change their lives and give them hope.

Adam Grant

Aja Brown
People should try and look for something that constantly keeps them motivated, and they start enjoying what they are doing.

Al Lewis
If I could find the right kind of property, get tied in with the right movie, I'd love to be involved, but I just find it hard to be motivated to do another screenplay right now.
Al Yankovic
I love hanging out with skilled and motivated people.
I know what motivated you was not just a political campaign. It was your love of our country.
It's very hard to motivate yourself and others with only one goal - particularly if it's complex and you might not get there until years down the road. That's why intermediate goals are so important.
Family involvement is a valuable thing and playing together actively can be the '90s version of it. Instead of just watching, you can do it together... something we don't spend enough time on. We can motivate and excite each other about fitness.
I was motivated by just thinking that if you had all this external success that everyone would love you and everything would be peaceful and wonderful.
You want to score runs at the highest average you can. That's what motivates you to keep driving the standards.

I think of my films as not necessarily political but more moral. Between my father, my stepfather, and my mother - they all felt pretty passionately about the importance of standing up and doing the right thing, and none of them were suck-ups. What motivates me is usually abuse of power.
As a professional soccer player, I need to get touches on the ball every day, and obviously it's a lot easier to do that with a team than to motivate yourself to do it by yourself.
I was never motivated by money. I wanted to be an FA Cup finalist. I wanted to walk up the steps at Wembley. I wanted to win the league. I still only ever want to win trophies.

I have always dreamt of going to an Olympics and watching these incredible athletes and being motivated and inspired to want to be successful in my own sport.
The safety argument against steroids may be a good one, but let's be honest. It isn't the one that motivates most officials and fans to frown on steroids. Steroid use does not just seem risky or unnatural, it seems to disrupt the level playing field.
I was motivated to write about violence because I believe it's not unusual. I see it as just a part of life, and I think we get in trouble when we separate people who've experienced it from those who haven't.
I used to teach at the Columbia journalism school, and I would tell my students that every book has to have a sentence that motivates it.
I am angry about the mammoth, out-of-control social welfare entitlement programs from Washington, D.C., that were supposed to solve our problems. The obvious truth is these impractical, politically motivated programs have irreparably damaged the fabric of our black society and community.
The biggest way I stay motivated is to run with a group of friends. Sometimes it's hard to get going by yourself, but if you have a plan and a meeting time, you know this run will happen for sure. It's a way to have fun - while also getting in a workout. Plus it distracts from pain, helps you fight fatigue, and gives you that extra push.
What you put in, you usually get out. If you are not good enough on the day, fine, but if you put in everything you have, you usually get a decent result. When you lose, it motivates you to go again, not dwell on the past.
When you lose, it motivates you to go again.
I feel like the thing that motivates me is not making the Olympic team. If I'm having a rough day, I think about how bad I want it.

I want to learn how to play an instrument. I want to break a world record. I'm just a very determined, motivated type of person.
I hope to continue to support, to inspire, to motivate, to encourage... in the hopes that maybe the world can get a little bit more giggle.
I love the U.S.A. women's soccer team. I'm really a fan of them, how they play as a team, the spirit they have. They really motivate a lot of people.
