Motivation

For one, I prefer to use discipline as opposed to motivation. It's much hardier and reliable. You're not subject to the idiosyncrasies of your emotion state.
But to answer you directly, Facebook. Seeing people's awesome fake lives makes me want to make mine really that awesome.

Good post. Motivation can be hard to develop. I wish you were most specific in your post about what you are trying to be motivated about.

Are you trying to apply to a program or a job? I am a premed and I was pretty demotivated recently. I shadowed a really great doctor and that really motivated to get back on the horse.

Although I gave a pretty specific response that I doubt applies to you, you can still take away something from it. If you have a dream or aspiration, get near that dream. You want to run a business? Talk to some business owners. You want to become a lawyer? hit up the courthouse. Having trouble passing an entrance exam for something? Find a study buddy that is motivated...that motivation will rub off on you.
