Inspirational ink

I'm not really sure about ink on body but here's my story

Around march of 2017 I had to take an exam to enroll in my course again, although I had already graduated, further pursuing my course would land me a better job. I had around a months worth of time to study but I somewhat lacked motivation, that's when I found a picture on facebookwith symbols from my country meaning victory or the way I interpreted it success, I knew that I had to study well in order to achieve it so I decided to put that on my wrist, not permanently though, i'm not ready for that life long commitment yet haha, I just used a ball-pen and drew the images on my wrist, along with some other words like hope and strength in a font style from a video game I was playing called warframe.

looking at the drawings on my wrist helped me a lot, it gave me motivation, it gave me persistence, whenever I felt tired and that I couldn't read anymore, I would just look at those drawings and I would get energy as if I drank coffee and I would read my lectures and text books for another 3 hours.

I'm not saying go out and get a tattoo or anything, mine was just a drawing from a pen, but if whatever image you seem to positively respond to and gives you motivation, there's nothing wrong with that maybe go take a picture of it, or get a tattoo if you're brave enough or draw it on yourself like I did.

Motivation comes and goes and this motivation of mine came from old alphabet in my country and a fictional language with its own alphabet from my video game.

So how about you? where does your motivation come from?
