What motivates you in life?

I read that every morning, Steve Jobs used to look in the mirror and asked himself: “If today was the last day of my life, would I be happy with what I’m about to do today?”

When his answer was ”no”; he started to make some changes.

I think that for most people, happiness is the greatest motivator in life. It is in our nature as human beings to want to be happy.

And it is also our duty to work for our happiness.

So, try a small exercise each day - in the morning (while you prepare for work) or during the night (while you prepare to go to sleep). Take 2 minutes to reflect on this:

• Are you a good parent / spouse / friend?

• Do you love your job?

• Do you smile enough during your day?

If not, what are you doing to change this?
