Motivational people--don't you just 'strongly dislike' them?

This morning I got a 'quick' rundown on the breakfast clean-up that I've agreed to do on Monday. As I tried really, really hard to listen to Sarah [and absorb] all she was telling me I couldn't help but be impressed with her. [I tried HARD not to be impressed] When I agreed to hire her a year or so ago, it was with deep reservations. She had gone about as low as you can go. She SAID she was turning her life around but---well, I had reservations. Today, she is an independant lady, running her life and getting more responsibilty daily. She now manages the apartment complex where she lives, does a WONDERFUL job with the Breakfast job AND is enrolling at DSC. [that's why I'm covering her breakfast clean-up] These are just the high-lights! It was clear that she'll never be happy just 'staying put', she'll always be reaching for something more. What a great example that was to me AND just what I needed to see. For a brief moment I wished I was enrolling in school. As much as I hate to admit it, I don't REALLY want to go back to school. However, I do want to do more than just exsist. I hope the motivation I felt while I was with her doesn't fade TOO fast, at least not before I get at least ONE project finished. That would be super!!
