Motivation: Higher Education and Grand Canyon University
Motivation Motivation is the driving force by which humans achieve their goals; or desire to do something. What motivated me to enroll at Grand Canyon University and pursue a degree in higher education because I believe in God and I have him within, family and friends pushed me, and I also motivated myself. Seeing all my close family and friends prepare themselves for the upcoming school year. I was tired of sitting around not doing anything with but just going to work was pointless. I have been trying and wanting to get back in school for a while but there was things holding me back like school loans that were in default and at one point I have had health issues/problems. Pursuing a degree in a higher education motivates me because I want to live better and good by the age of 30, I actually want to be more of what I am today, and that’s somebody. Every day I wake up and thank God just for allowing and blessing me to be here and to get to see another day of life because tomorrow is never promised to anyone. I have a lot of goals in life that I am going to pursue and pursuing my education is a MUST. With an education and having that degree in Accounting, you are more than what you were before, you have the ability to live better with a better career and you have success throughout your life beginning now. Motivation is important for student success because it determines the success of a student; it can come with “in” or from the outside. It has needs, wants, values, or desires; the student has a balance of self-confidence, self-esteem, patience and persistence. It drives the student to work and learn, it also has that desire to achieve greater success.
