What's your drive behind life?

Question

Is it the thrill, knowledge, the memories, or the bigger picture?

I like to think that mine is for the Knowledge and the bigger picture. What's yours?

Answer 1

all that used to be true for me too, when I was in college. things were simpler then, and very romantic. all that drives me is my daughter. it's amazing, the things you'll do for your child. she's 8 months old. I never had a bigger boss. not my parents, teachers, husband, employers...not one could make me wake 7 times/night! I never imagined it was possible to love like this. I just want to give her the whole world on a plate.

Answer 6

I don't think that you need to have a category about life.  All of those things are wonderful about living.  We experience each of those things, sometimes more than the other or less than the other.  It all comes together though!  Life is so fantastic.

Answer 7

mine is to know the reason of life why am i here and i do not believe in a high power and no insults to those that do  i just want to know what is the reason behind humanities life reasons

Answer 8

I'm driven by the future, and by the past.  I like to think that I'm driven by everything you mentioned, and more.

Life for me is a perpetual spiral, always rising.  I'm always looking for ways to gain new knowledge, to find new thrills, to expand my views of the world, and to make new memories.  I look at life as a path to perfection:  everything along the way is just a small trail marker or a large land mark, and it all takes me to where I want to be in the end if I follow the path correctly.

Eventually, I'll reach a point where I'm fully happy, and then I can increase my speed to further that happiness.

Answer 9

Making a difference. It has entailed for me, an acknowledgment of areas I need to grow in, and hurdles I've had to overcome, so that I could move forward, little by little to achieve a better vehicle for change--to be an example, that is, and encourage others, who have similar hurdles to overcome. It's definitely what keeps me going. Of course, I have needed to continue educating myself along the way, and accepting certain limitations, but inadvertently, by accepting them, I surmounted others. Courage, and the ability to achieve a little more with each hurdle, enlists my forward propulsion.

"Be Bold, and Mighty Forces will come to Your aid" These mighty words were spoken By Basil King, a Preacher who became Blind, on overcoming Fear.

In order to Make a Difference, I must be bold.

In order to Be an example, I must be bold.

In order to be a vehicle for change, I must be Bold.

In order to encourage others, at times I have to take a deep Breath and Be bold.

In order to Accept My own limitations, and surmount others in so doing, I must be bold.

In order to enlist a forward propulsion, I must be bold.

And Mighty forces have come to my aid.
