What motivates people these days?

submitted by yabbit from (self.whatever)

Religion, the family, the nation, morals, society, relationships, are all dead and gone. What makes people want to get up and go to work every morning?

Mostly just the desire not to be homeless

Wealth and power. That's what gets me going.

Money muh fucka. I don't work to see my name in lights, I don't care about status at work, I want to work the least and make the most. Simple as that.

Doesn't mean I'm a not a hard worker, I work a lot, but I like my shit and I hate balancing my checkbook. My entire career has been geared to work towards "work smart, not hard." Efficiency is always the key. Minimizes frustration. Work sucks.

This also goes into another motivation which is being a provider. I get a great sense of accomplishment when I can provide things for my kids. But never spoil them, there are always lessons to be learned.

What motivates me? Jesus. Not only that most of the circumstantial evidence support the hypothesis that he rose from the dead, but that a few fishermen from 2000 years ago were told the end which we are heading towards. Not only that, the NWO practically publishes their plans for the future, but their plans are described in the last book of the Bible, if a little cryptically. The only explanation that makes sense is that they wrote the Bible, are fulfilling it on purpose, or God, by telling the ending from the beginning, shows as that He exists, and that heaven is real.
