What is your Motivation? A 12-year olds insights and perspectives

BY MAKAYLA B. – 12 YEARS OLD

Motivation can come from many things and in many different forms, like what is important to you.

Something that motivates you is different from what motivates your friends or family members. My motivation comes from quite a few places. When I’m doing art or something that I would like to be aesthetically pleasing, like a painting or drawing, my motivation comes from seeing the end product. When I am working on my art I try to complete it so I can see the finished piece. I think the reason I get my motivation from seeing the end product of my art is because I take pride in my work.

Writing articles is very fun but it’s hard work. My motivation when I write articles is being able to learn new words, and learn about different things like other peoples cultures. This summer I’m going to start learning new things and I’m really excited to do that. Many kids wouldn’t be excited about learning during the summer break. My motivation for learning throughout the summer is that when school starts again, I will be ahead of some of the class and that will help me get good grades.

Motivation is very important in everyday life because without it, you wouldn’t want to do anything. Motivation plays a big role in our lives and without it we wouldn’t be who we are today, and you wouldn’t be doing things you enjoy.
