“When unmotivated individuals choose to face reality they often fall short of reaching any dreams or aspirations they’ve hoped to achieve.”
As human beings, we’ve all have had unique dreams in life. Deams so great, that you would need to put in 100% of your effort in order to accomplish it. People in your life may start to doubt you as you try to reach your goal. Leading to you losing motivation in achieving that goal you had for yourself. Reality can be a scary thing at times. Causing you to really think about what you’re doing in life. Oftentimes people feel pressure to do something from these critics forcing reality on to you. People telling you what to do and how to do it will eventually lower your motivation to reach your goal. Since these people dictate how you go about accomplishing your goals. These people may think that their way of completing tasks is the only right way. So when these people in your life tell you that your doing it wrong it may make you lose confidence in accomplishing your goal. When you lose confidence, you will eventually lose the motivation you needed in order to reach the goal you had set for yourself. All because reality set in and external forces in your life pressure you to do things you don’t want to. Becoming unmotivated can led you into a cycle of performing poorly in your daily life. You soon may realize nothing has any meaning to you anymore after you lose motivation in your life.
I’ve happened to fall into an unmotivated cycle originating from the negative influences in my life. Whenever I go to the skate park I feel like I’m being watch and judged by the better skaters at the park. Just their presence alone makes me feel nervous to skate. I feel like I’m just an annoyance to them, by just taking up space at the park just to fall down in front of them. I know that most skaters don’t often don’t watch the others at the park, but it’s just a thing in my head that makes me feel nervous whenever I don’t land a trick. This internalized fear has unmotivated me to accomplishing my goal of becoming a better skater.
So in conclusion negative factors in your life can lead to you becoming unmotivated in life. Making you not want to put in the effort to reach your goals.
Salutations Arnold,
reading through your blog post I really enjoyed how you described how your thesis affects people regardless of who and where they may be. The pressure of dreaming is one that may sound comical but in a way, it is all around us through “People in your life may start to doubt you as you try to reach your goal.” There’s always talk from people who say you should follow your dreams but the second you do, you are faced with judgement and criticism and how you stated it really just shows that no matter what, there will always be people who will try to get in your way even though they may have been in the same situation themselves. With what you’re experiencing in the skatepark, just remember that those people started somewhere too and they may have felt the exact same way about other skaters before them. life is funny that way where people put each other down without thinking about how they would or has felt being in that situation themselves.
Something that I think you should improve on is your sentence quality. Many of your sentences were very choppy and fragment-like, meaning that they didn’t make sense at times. You should try to make sure that when you’re reading your work it doesn’t feel clunky to read out loud and if it does, just make little changes for a more streamlined piece of writing.
With that, I think you did a great job at defining your thesis and I look forward to reading more of your work throughout this semester.
Kind regards,
Rowan
