♥ Absence of motivation
How can you motivate someone who just gave up on themselves?
This was the first question that popped into my head when I tried in vain to help out my dear friend on their recitation grade in one of our class together. I felt as helpless as he was when he finally got picked by our dear wonderful prof and he failed to answer our prof's follow up question. My friend needed and still needs to bring up his recitation grade in order to pass the damn subject.
I felt bad too since my friend was asking for help from me, and this is a rare event since this friend of mine is actually a smart student and most of the time, it's me that's asking for help, and i failed to help him. (wow! that was a mouthful!) Anyway, I felt really bad...
I don't want to say that I know how my friend feels but, yes in a way, I know how it feels to be motivation-less. I can say that I've been on that limbo place where in I just want everything to just fall into their places without exerting any more effort on my part. Let's just say all I felt was pure laziness and helplessness. And of course, I thought it was ok...I already accepted defeat - then I fail and after looking at that final grade, I realized that I could've done better if only I studied much better.
I guess it's important if you have great friends who believe in your abilities...even if you yourself already have doubts on yourself. And I'm grateful for having these kind of friends, though I'm not really showing how grateful I am of them, I just make it a point to be there when they need me.
Ok, this has just turned into a mushy post. So there, sana gets niyo yung point...sorry kung hindi LOL
