When my colleagues asked “What motivates you to work?”

What motivates me to work?

Yesterday I was in the coffee shop with my colleagues. We were talking about how’s life and working life of course. But seemed more than 80% we were talking about working progress and we were all not satisfied with it.
But if you can notice on my above picture, I was so happy to be with lovely coffees

Our working performances have always been up and down. We shared the cases that we encountered. This was really good time for me to get someone I can talk about something I have dwell on in my mind for long time and I never told anyone.

And, one of my colleagues named Yuka initiated to asked the interesting question like

“What motivates you to work?”

I was really surprised no one mentioned about Money is the first priority. So that means we are living with the same purpose

Money is the first factor that can be spent for living life. We all have responsibilities to take up , financial difficulty, many debts or bills to pay and other issues to be paid by money. That's why many people pinned Money as the best motivation to work hard

For me, to set the term of money as the first priority to motivate me to work, I must have pushed myself harder to get the achievement. I might have to put all my effort through the work. And I genuinely know the results would be suffered by my physical symptoms and mental health. So I myself disagree that picking Money is the first motivation.

Instead, money will be me second motivation

So my answer is

“ What motivates me is creating new things to work”

As every working day I have been facing with working routines such as I got to find new objectives, and then call them, next send emails with the same things. Not only these routines are so boring but also my daily performance usually depends on KPI which I am feeling of reduced professional ability. This is likely slowing sign of BURNOUT

I started to contribute myself to try ways to stand with these routines. I have been listening to many PODCASTS even reading useful articles about how to submit productive work. And then I found the one which was really touch me which was about
“ If you begin less of capable at work or feel dread going to work, you must create new things by your own idea in the workplace” 🙃

Well I answered were like

• “ If I cannot fade away from these routine works, I must create new own idea to adapt with it. For example, I review what I am interested in at this moment so I will seek new objectives similar of what I am interested in and then reach them out. This I can gain new things and really build me to work more”

• “ Also, I sometimes get out from my desk to find other areas to work, but it is still in the office. I believe to change old spot can blink up my new ideas differently”

• “ I did pick small projects for the management team which was my own PODCAST, and my plan had been approved. My PODCAST was my sharing story to co-workers every Monday morning before start working. I am so proud of this project because I was the first person who did it and before that no one ever thought about.”

• “ I am in charge of my PODCAST, the reason that I wanted to make something that was not related to work but occurred in the workplace. I am able to stand working with boring routines together with creating my own PODCAST at work.
  
  

I can say that easier to be more innovative every my working day
