Mondays and Wednesdays I work at the AG's office downtown. I have to show up between 9:00 and 10:00, which usually isn't too hard to manage. I try to leave the house around 9:00. Yesterday morning I was still in bed at 8:40 when I got a text from my friend Eli asking if I wanted to meet him for lunch that day. I thought, "I'd better get up, get ready, and get to work so I can go to lunch with Eli." Thanks, Eli, for helping me get the motivation to make it to work.
When I was younger I used to get offended when teachers at church and school would bring candy bars to bribe us to behave. I would always think, "I am not motivated by candy bars!" Now I would do almost anything for the reward of picking out a treat from a delicious bakery such as Gourmandise. Has food become a larger motivating factor in my life, or were they just offering the wrong type of food?
