Creativity? Determination? Fear? What really gets you moving?

Attributes of Life: (Adaptation, Reproduction, Metabolism, Growth and Repair)

Soul, Awarness, Conscience, Religion, Sex, Hate, Fear, Strength, Compasion, Spirit, Health, Greed, Happiness, Food, Water, Air, Shelter, Love .

I like to list the above items whenever I start to get into some deep discussions. It helps my mind to place specific topics into the most basic of categories. After all, everything we do drives or fits into one of the above topic words.

Now lets get down to business.

Have you ever had that creative moment, the one that sets you off to change your life in some way, such as start a business, start jogging or working out, compete in races? Where does it come from, why does it even come at all. Is it our conscience monitoring our happiness meter? Is it some higher power guiding us? What drives us? What drives our creative process?

Now these questions will be unanswered or have allready been answered, (depending on who you talk to) but what we want to do is to get some ideas of what really, truly drives you!

Whether its personal goals, business goals, life goals.

I get up in the morning , and I always remember that corny quote, I read when I was in my teens on my father's place of business at the time that said.

“Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle... when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.”

Yes, Yes I know you have read this one.

So let's hear it, What gets you running in the morning, and where are you running to?
