The Importance of Motivation

Even the article is short but that really hits me on the right spot. I believe that motivation is something very important in our life. I personally get my motivation from questioning everything I see. If I see something wrong or inappropriate then it motivates me to fix or change it for example being an UIF is motivated by questioning why our education is only focused on the students' hard skills. By fixing or changing something wrong, I believe it will motivate other people to do the same, it's contagious.
