How do you keep yourself motivated?

I know at school towards the end of the year many students begin to slack off. How can you keep yourself motivated during this time? Sometimes work can also be repetitive so how do you keep yourself motivated at work as well? #school #work #motivation #focus

Does it help to start off in a career that pays well, rather than searching for your dream job?

I know college results in debt, so I was wondering: in the long run would it be worth it to find a job in a subject you like(but aren't overly fond of) and use that to become more financially stable, then find a career you are very passionate about? #finance #debt #multiple-interests
