What motivates you?

If you're talking work, here are some of mine in no particular order:

1. Deadlines (!!!)

2. A fresh shower of rain or better still, a rainy day - makes my mood better

3. An upcoming holiday - and knowing that I will be doing close to zero work during my holiday

4. Encouragement - all kinds, because I believe that it ultimately comes from God.

5. An inspiring piece of art - whether music, painting, literature or sculpture

6. A meal with a good friend (and quality time)

7. The sound of my hubby's snoring while I'm working late into the night - soothing like a lullaby, it motivates me to get my work done quickly and go to bed.

8. Paper presentations - especially those in which you get critiqued by your colleagues/classmates afterwards
