In life we all Dream and aspire to be great but lack the right motivation. Anything or anyone can be a motivation to somebody's dream, we often hear some individuals say that they are self motivated while on the other hand some would say my dad, my mom, sister, uncle etc. is the motivation behind my success.
Self motivation is also inspired by others in my opinion. Because when you see others are growing and you want to be your best then you motivate yourself and set some goals to achieve.
So for me my motivation is also like same which is self motivation but inspired by my surrounding members in real life. They instructed me to be a good human or student and I just tried to do it even better and win the competition. And obviously I follow "Holly Qur'an" to keep alive my motivations. Because without help of mighty Allah no one can be focused on his goals and can be depressed.
