Motivation is personal

I’m motivated to learn about those things I don’t understand. This is why I ask a lot of questions and sometimes seem to be staring at nothing. Probably pondering some mental puzzle. Fully in the grip of the NADD‘ness.

I have an assignment due where I have to come up with three personas and two scenarios. There are times when I just don’t want to do anything. Yet I do. Motivation is involved somehow.

I can’t help but think about what motivates me to stay up night after night working toward a degree1. I’m in a good position with my career, face interesting challenges daily, yet I’m in school. Don’t get me wrong though, I’m not questioning my decision or anything.

It isn’t that simple.

Almost 11 PM and time to call it a night. I have tomorrow morning to focus on school work then class in the afternoon. Psychology as it relates to information systems. Motivation.

    You know, if there were any money in it, I’d be a professional student. I am a nerd, for sure, and I would stay in school (any kind, really) for the rest of my life if I could.
