What is your source of drive in your life?

Question

Whats the thing that drives you to be? I mean, what does your life call you to do... what is it you where meant to accomplish? And try not to say God, thats a generic answer - the same with kids. If your reason for being is god or children - then you have no drive to live if either of them's taken away.

So what are some good, reasons to live - your drive, day to day.

Random threads of cursing because of comments are welcome too if you must. But I've known too many mothers in my life who stay with a husband just for the kids then when the kids get around 16-18 they go and tell the eldest daughter that they would have killed themselves long ago had it not been for them kids.

Answer 1

Ever heard people saying that "this is what I was meant to do"?

Some people call it destiny, some people call it a genetic predisposition.

People fight against what they "know" they should be doing for various reasons.  The happiest people are those that accept.

As to the source of my drive, life is the ride, regardless of whether you believe in a God or not, the ride is worth it.

Answer 2

New experiences drive me. I like to try something new, go to a new place or do something new as often as I can.

I like to learn, not so much from books but be seeing and doing things and talking to people. You never know what the next person you talk to is going to say and I think that’s really cool.

Answer 3

I'm 14 and what drives me to go on in life is to one day fine true love, have children, and become a neurosurgeon

Answer 4

Laughter.

I've always said that if I lost my sense of humour I would kill myself. There is nothing better than a good belly laugh with people you love.

I feel bad for people who take themselves too seriously. Learn to laugh and you learn to live.

Answer 5

The object of the game is to get out of it alive.  If you Die, you lose.  If you give up, you lose.  If you win, you lose.  But, If you pay attention you won't have to repeat the worst parts over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over etc.

Answer 6

it was a girl, and the desire to love and feel loved in return

but now there's nothing there. I've got no drive to live...just, I think. A desire to end all the pain.

Answer 7

God drives me to be in life because NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME!!!

Haha, j/k. I threw that one out there for people that might say that.

My source of drive? I really don't know. I think it's finding that reason in my life that is my source of drive in life to keep going. I really hate not knowing things. Lol.
