I'm really regretting not participating on here these last two times. I forgot how focused and motivated I was the first time because of the community.
Slightly off-topic, but something that has kept me motivated is the movie Whiplash. If you have a chance, check it out. Aside from being an excellent film, there's a lot there to relate to as far as pushing yourself as far as you can go.
Giving some time to yourself and having some fun in life is the best thing we can do to stay more positive and motivated. We have to believe in what we really want. It always help to achieve our goals easily.
