When creating a list of 100 ways to motivate yourself it struck that there were some commonalities inherent in a lot of the entries. Most of the items on the list consist of a physical or emotional state that you don’t currently have but can make into a goal of some type that you can then strive after. The motivation in this is two fold if you keep in mind that the journey or striving is just as important as the goal or endpoint. If you can periodically look at how far you have come from where you started then the distance left to the goal won’t matter as much because you will have a sense of accomplishment along the way which is motivating in itself. This article will list the 100 ways to motivate yourself and give a guide at the end of the list.

My fav. Taylor song is Enchanted and this song always reminds me of my best frnd flightFlora.
This article is dedicated 2 her:

Lyric: "There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity"

This reminds me of the day when i entered my new classroom, looking here and there and passing smiles. And i was searching 4 a frnd of mine who was not there anymore.

Lyric: "Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered "have we met?
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's...

This poem is absolutely beautiful.

Hello everyone, Jared here once again back with another EPIC list! ^__^ Audience: Whoo! *Clap Clap Clap* Yeah!

Me: Thanks so much! ^___^ And no autographs!
Me: *Wakes up* AW COME ON! :(

SO yeah, we've all had dreams. Whether good, bad, somewhat strange, OR JUST A BLACK SCREEN, X___X Dreams are fascinating. They take us to a new world and let us explore our fantasies, as well as our imagination!

Unless you get the previously mentioned black screen of death dream, which sadly happens 80% of the time.

AW BUGGA. :(

But being serious, we've ALL had those few amazing dreams that make us wish we lived...

What is it about fecundity that so appalls? Is it that with nature's bounty goes a crushing waste that threatens our own cheap lives?

by Annie Dillard
wakened myself last night with my own shouting. It must have been that terrible yellow plant I saw pushing through the flood-damp soil near the log by Tinker Creek, the plant as fleshy and featureless as a slug, that erupted through the floor of my brain as I slept, and burgeoned into the dream of fecundity that woke me up.

I was watching two huge luna moths mate. Luna moths are those fragile ghost moths, fairy moths, whose five-inch wings are...

Why do so many people use Facebook? Well for one, I think that so many people use it because of
persuading. There are millions of videos, posts peoples opinions,so people would want to see all of them. Facebook can also persuade you to make an account, because you may want to comment your opinion on something, but need to make a profile to do that. It's like Facebook combines all of the popular types of websites such as: Gaming websites,video websites(Youtube),and sites like Fanpop! Facebook is a persuading brainwashing site that I
do not recommend going to. Facebook CAN attract anyone. Facebook is sort-of like some businesses. For example: Have you ever walked into a grocery store and noticed deals you think are better like 5.00 for 1 can each of tuna, but only 20.00 for a four-set container with four cans of the same exact tuna? Well yes, that's sort-of what facebook does. ©2014Tailsfan99(Fanpop),all rights reserved.

Let me tell you who i am. Why I'm here.

I believe i was born for artistic purposes. There was a point in my life where I was about to give up. I would stay up in my bed all night and write suicide notes. Highschool wasn't doing shit for me.

But then, I opened my eyes and saw something beautiful, a chance to make things right. to make my mother proud.

My brother is in college. Art college. He is studying game effects. He was my rolemodel in the art department, even though he's bully me in his free time. I would admire his drawings he'd make. He was a huge Dragon Ball nerd, and he's always be trying...

Copy and pasted from: link


THIS IS VERY URGENT AND NOT A JOKE!

I really mean it! What would you be able to do if SOPA/TPP censors the internet? What would you be able to do if writing fanfics and drawing fanarts become illegal? What would you do if it's illegal to do a cover of your favorite song on YouTube? What would you do if downloading things from the internet (music, movies, TV episodes, etc) became illegal? What would you do if SOPA/TPP wins the war and takes away internet freedom? Net Neutrality is already dead so far, we can't risk the freedom of internet from getting killed by SOPA/TPP!...

I fucking love America.

Yeah, that’s right, I love it. In a time when it’s oh so trendy to hate society and all this country’s flaws, I love the United States of America.

And yes, I do acknowledge the flaws. It does suck that there’s still widespread racism and sexism and it sucks that same-sex marriage isn’t nationally recognized. (It also sucks that marijuana isn’t legal everywhere but ya know, I can let that go.)

I love America because I’m free. I love America because I’m free to love it or I’m free to hate it. I can choose. I can voice my opinions.

I love that it can be funny...
