Lack of Motivation

Motivation is a funny thing...you either have it or you don't.  Some people are highly motivated and others are not motivated at all.  Some things you may be more motivated for than others.  For instance, I am highly motivated to lose weight at this time.  Seven months ago I was not motivated at all...why?  I am always motivated to plan parties and attend them.  However, I am never motivated to grade papers.  How do you change that motivation?  Can you?  I need to get this work done, report cards are due on Monday and I graded all day yesterday, and will grade all day today...but here I am procrastinating by writing this stupid blog message that has no apparent purpose except to keep me from having to grade the papers.  Well, enough is enough...I will get started!  It is my own fault I have all this grading!  I have put it off for weeks...My goal is to get everything graded and in the computer before Fred gets home...then get grades in tomorrow.  Have all day Sunday to relax!
 My quote for the weekend:)
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.
 Zig Ziglar quotes (American motivational Speaker and Author. )

  2. Only grade what is most important. The rest can be recycled :)
