daily inspirations

[Carrie]

what gets you through the day?

is it something you do? something you read? a motivational quote?

[miss.myra]

having a manager that barks orders at us for 5 mins each morning then takes what can only be described as an all day smoke break

just kidding!

It really all is about goals I set for myself with everything and the opportunity to meet them and set new ones. It's hard to get out of bed some days, but knowing I need to stick around and stay awesome to work with the Olympics in 2010 is a huge motivation for me.

My smiling,laughing,singing,dancing gremlin.

If I'm stumped I either go for a walk or read for a while.

Although this is rare since I'm a jingle writing master.

What usually gets me through a 12 hour day at work is trying to make people laugh--coworkers or patients. I have a face that just doesn't smile a lot, so people tend to think I'm very serious and cold. The other day I had this interaction with a patient:

Me- Your toenails need to be trimmed. Badly.
Him- I know. I can't find nail clippers that are big enough.
Me- Maybe you can try a pet nail trimmer.
Him- *laughs* I know. I've used them before.

If I'm really tired I look forward to napping during my breakfast, lunch, and dinner breaks. Day shifts are usually so busy that time just flies by.

I'm usually automatically inspired at work, I think. I work with extremely intelligent people who have amazing work ethics. And some of the patients I meet just blow me away with their life stories and struggles.

I really love my job.

In my personal life, if I'm having a particularly rough day, I'll call a gf for wine. On a super rough day, I'll call my mom.

For the most part, I'd say that I'm mostly inspired and motivated by the people I surround myself with.

its like you can turn the hate on and off,like a light switch.

incredible. I find it hilarious that you look down your nose at the underacheivers of the world and yet your profession depends upon people that have little access to proper healthcare which in your opinion are underacheivers.

You explained in the other thread that you were taught in school to seperate personal opinions from professional ones,which i completely agree with. However, ever heard of something called integrity? I guess you cant learn that in school.

Mine isn't really an every day thing... but every time i start slacking and not working as hard.. i take a nice long drive through the british properties to remind myself of why i'm working so hard and putting myself through tough shit to make money

[diva]

ragga_whore, do you have any pictures of your daughter? i bet she's adorable. how old is she now?

RISE UP!

my mom is my inspiration. she left this weekend for a month and i already miss her terribly.

[rawb]

1) I TAKE PRIDE IN MY SHIT
2) I KNOW THAT IF IM NOT FEELING LIKE IM EXCELLING AT SOMETHING THEN I SOON WONT WANT TO DO IT ANYMORE, AND I CANT FEEL LIKE IM EXCELLING IF IM BEING LAZY
3) HUSTLE = $$$ AND GETTIN PAID = AWESOME
4) THE TEAM I WORK WITH IS AWESOME, I HAVE AN ANGRY CUBAN FOR A BOSS WHO MAKES EVERYTHING VERY GLENNGARY GLEN ROSS, AND I AM MOTIVATED BY SHAME TO PRODUCE
5) I LIKE PROVING PEOPLE WRONG, I LIKE SURPRISING PEOPLE. I HAVE A PERSONAL LIST OF PEOPLE THAT IM METAPHORICALLY 1990 -> WINDMILL -> STALL -> DICKGRAB'ING
6) I WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT MY CEILING IS AND GROW AS A PERSON l
7) I WANNA BE UNFUCKWITTABLE

I have truckloads,but lets not act like you give a fuck about my child. Cuz lets face it,you dont give a shit about anyone unless youre at work and getting paid to give a shit.

[ash1ee]

i always like having something to look forward to. so i give myself reminders of whats yet to come.
photos on my computer desktop/beside my bed etc. that sort of thing.

[mojo]

the knowledge that I have more opportunity in my life then 1/3 of the world will ever have, and if I squander that I would be a fool.

THIS CAT HAS NO TABLE MANNERS...

[Courtney]

- a final result...one day I know there will be a positive outcome to all of this hard work at school
-knowing that life isn't easy but staying positive definetely improves the quality of it
-know that my dad wouldn't want me to be depressed and reggretful and let it negatively affect my life, he would want me to go on and be successful and that is probably one of the biggest drives in my life I will have always
-valuing the great friends and family that are still around, having positive memories of those that arent
-thinking about the travelling and love in my future

[stabmyhead]

Good tunes always make work easier. Knowing my coworkers/bosses etc. are behind me 100% in the direction I want to go. Being recognized within and outside my department as someone that is reliable, attentive and produces quality work.

My boyfriend is a big part of my inspiration. He has taught me so much and has still so much to teach me. His design/art inspires me to keep my artistic side alive. His patience and understanding despite me sometimes being a bit of a shithead.

My dad who I know would be so proud of me and will continue to be proud of me. My family who love and care for me. My brother is a huge dreamer and he always reminds me to have aspirations and goals in life - to think big.

[Grapes]

Making the bastards pay.

i think its more realistic to say that you have a vendetta against anybody over-achieving you. thats what appears to be the case after reading your posts for the past however many months. it seems that you cant relate to anybody that isnt suffering somehow. i dont think you can accept that some people are happy and successful.
