Sunday Motivation
What does motivation mean to you? What
do you do to stay motivated?
According to the Merriam-Webster
Dictionary, the word motivation means: “the condition of being eager to act or work : the condition of being
motivated. : a force or influence that causes someone to do something.”
How does a dancer stay “eager to act or
work” in a competitive, challenging and often discouraging environment? It all
comes down to desire and that desire
will be different for every person. What do you desire most out of your dance
training? Identify it, and then find ways to push yourself toward that goal.
Ways to inspire yourself might include: a
motivational song, a mental image of a future job or role – or it might be relishing
the simple joy of a daily accomplishment in class, like mastering a particular
step.
Think about what motivates you, then
focus on it.
