What motivates me?

I think you like it when someone does something nice for you. Well, most people like it too. In fact, we all do. But you should not be at the receiving end all the time. You must also learn to serve others. It is true that many people do not do that. Most people want others to serve them, but that should not be the case always.

Jesus washed the feet of His disciples to demonstrate to them the importance of serving others to make them humble. He didn't want them to think about themselves alone but about others too.
During this Christmas holidays, learn to serve your parents, siblings and other people in your neighbourhood, especially the elderly. It is not hard to serve other people. If you watch closely, you will discover many things that you can do for others. You can for instance, help your mother with cooking, cleaning and also doing the marketing at home. If you have younger siblings you can help take care of them.

For me it’s what motivates me to help other people. It motivates me to help people in my environment maybe they are struggling with something, by helping them and solved that problem I become motivated a lot. Even when I was a little boy at primary school my friends knew me as a helpful person that they can rely on.

Helping others I would say it’s something that I was born with because I still do that as I’m becoming a big man.
