Motivation Welcomed for all Ages
But, if you’re in your sixties like me, you may find you need a little more as you age!
I am less motivated in my sixties than in my thirties or forties. I do my best to hear good chatter in the social world. 😊 Sometimes, I get caught up on social media and have to put the phone down before scrolling endlessly.
Influencers, news, and so much information can be good within moderation. Regarding influencers, I look for encouragement and inspiration from others and hope to do the same in return.
Why are there ‘influencers’ anyhow?
How about simply encouragers on social? Encourage me to eat better, or whatever the topic is. Give me reasons, purpose, and a cheerful path. It might be a pet peeve, but I like the term encourager much more than an influencer. Do I want to be influenced? NO. Is it more helpful if someone gave me reasons to feel good about myself? YES. I don’t want to be like someone else but instead be happy with some encouragement, guidance, and options.
Perhaps I’d feel better with the term motivating influencers!
