GOALS… what motivates you?

"THANKSGIVING morning LALANNE FITNESS Workout of the Day"

What motivates you...? Is it stronger ARMS or six pack ABS? Or... Is your GOAL more performance oriented like; run a marathon or climb Half-Dome? We are all motivated by different things, some are more tangible, aesthetic goals, while others are athletic and fitness related. I can tell you that I am driven by both. When I visit the beach, I like to feel good about taking my shirt off. If I am confident about my physical appearance, this makes me feel good. Period. When I am in the gym, I want to perform better and being competitive makes me feel good too. What are your GOALS?
