Students Need Motivation

Motivation can lift a person's spirit in carrying out daily activities. We often use social media, which can be positive or negative depending on how it is used. The abundance of motivation on social media can have a positive impact, because it can re-charge the spirit of its readers.

However, since most motivation takes the form of words in a friend's instastory or on our fyp feed, we often skip it because we feel we are not in that situation at the time. For example, there is a story about getting over a move on, but we are in the middle of falling in love. It is different when we are both feeling down; then the words will really touch us.

People who write motivation on social media are actually encouraging themselves to rise again and inviting people in the virtual world to rise together. Within a person, the spirit sometimes lasts only at the beginning. When there are more and more tests and trials, one feels like giving up.

We need what is called a support system, which can be a loved one or a friend. But we must also consider that not everyone has the opportunity to have someone who supports them, and keeping all the burdens inside without letting them out will endanger one's mental health, to the point of depression and even suicide. To avoid that, the importance of words of motivation is greatly needed in order to keep going while facing the tests of life.

Not only through words, motivation can also arise from a person's experience. This motivation can be captured by a person if they feel admiration for someone's achievements and will follow them. When we see others' experiences that are better than ours, we instead feel insecure while saying in our hearts, “how can he be so successful at my age, all this time I have been doing stupid things” or “I am lazy”; saying this becomes a boomerang within us, or it could be said that your greatest enemy is yourself.

It is yourself who will bring change, even if you have received many messages of 'keep it up' from the whole world. If your soul does not move you, it will have no effect. Everyone surely has self-motivation, which is then used in daily life. Life needs some self-compulsion so that we become accustomed to it. Compel yourself toward goodness, which makes the soul calmer. It is useless to have many quotes about gratitude, happiness, mental health and so on if they are only skimmed. We must not forget that God helps you regain your spirit by destining those posts to pass by you. So remember, everything can be done because you yourself are willing to fight.

It is not uncommon for us to complain about everything that has happened and want to give up. But it is up to us to compel our spirit back with self-motivation and the future goals we want. Your struggle does not end here; there are still many episodes to go through. There is much to be grateful for.

Being a student is a privilege that not everyone can continue. There are many assignments in college, so one feels frustrated and wants to end it all. Yet if we look below us, there are many people who study desperately to get into the state university (PTN) they want. Therefore we must be grateful to be in the position of a student.

To regain our spirit, we need to look at those below us, whose lives are in fact more prosperous than ours. Do not look up, as that will make you insecure if you look without motivation. Students struggle until they finish because there are goals in the future. It is not only students who struggle; behind the scenes there are also parents who always support and pray for their children in their education. Keep going, students.
