What motivates you?
The fundamental thing the motivates me is meaningful work. Doing something that connects with my values, and piques my interest. Anything that engages my moral compass makes me feel fulfilled and valuable.
I am big on volunteering for what makes me feel appreciated and connected to my community. A big motivator for me is helping those who have gone to war and sacrificed many things for other people. Or it may be people who have had a difficult life. I enjoy the fact that simple things I can do will make their day better and put a smile on their face.
