In summary, the main motivators for pushing forward are intrinsic factors such as personal fulfillment and growth, as well as extrinsic factors such as recognition and rewards. The desire to achieve goals and make progress, as well as the support and encouragement from others, also play a significant role in staying motivated. Overcoming challenges and setbacks can also serve as a motivation to keep pushing forward and reaching for success. Ultimately, the combination of internal and external motivators can drive an individual to keep striving towards their goals and aspirations.

I have been passively watching physics forums for quite some time and I noticed how hard working some people are.
I generally don't get motivated by fancy quotes or the competition, but by the stories of hard working people who in spite of many difficulties continues to strive hard.
so I have been wondering, what's your story?

(p.s -don't be shy)
