2雅思口语 part2话题参考文本
One thing I can’t live without is my motivation. I am a very motivated person, or a go-getter as someone would describe. I think there are many problems that a person has in life is due to a lack of motivation. For example, losing weight is about motivation. Three years ago, I was quite heavy and I consider myself to be obese. I remember one day I stepped on the scale and it said 91kg. At that point, I was so shocked and I became very motivated to go on a diet and get back into doing exercise. Now I am at 75kg and quite happy with my new physique. So in a way, my motivation has led to a happier life for me.
Also, I am always motivated to create new lessons for my students and I hate teaching the same materials all the time. I guess whenever my students love my classes, it is my motivation to create more and better lesson, thus creating a positive feedback loop.
So I believe if a person lacks of motivation, they will be unhealthy, having no goals in life, and generally speaking, much unhappier than people who do. But exactly why some people are more motivated than others are still up for debate. But In my opinion, it is about training and discipline. So everybody can do it and everybody can become motivated.
