Motivation In Demand

Deadlines are approaching.

One-thousand-five-hundred-word essays are yet to be completed.

At the same time, an increased urge to catch up with missed movies grabs me by the feet.

Shoo, distractions!

I NEED MOTIVATION!!!!!

A great way for all students out there, suffering migraine from incessant piling up assignments like me, is to transform temptations into motivations!

For example, instead of making a wishful list entitled :

Movies to-watch :

1. The Expendables 2

2. The Avengers

3. I'm Not Stupid The Movie

4. Lorax

5. Monsters vs Aliens

6. ......

Why not changing it to :

PENDING REWARDS :

1. The Expendables 2

2. The Avengers

3. I'm Not Stupid The Movie

4. Lorax

5. Monsters vs Aliens

6. ......

It can be so much more inspiring and less alluring.

To me, it works but not every time. Well, as quoted from Facebook, "Not that we cannot control ourselves, but the enemy is too powerful".

True story.
