DIFFERENT THINGS MOTIVATE DIFFERENT PEOPLEInternal motivation comes from within, such as pride, a sense ofachievement, responsibility and belief.


There was a young boy who used to come for regular practice but always

played in the reserves and never made it to the soccer eleven. While he

was practicing, his father used to sit at the far end, waiting for him.

The matches had started and for four days, he didn't show up forpractice or

the quarter or semifinals.

All of a sudden he showed up forthe finals,

went to the coach and said, "Coach, you have always kept mein the reserves

and never let me play in the finals. But today, pleaselet me play."
The coach said, "Son, I'm sorry, I can't let you.

There are betterplayers than you and besides, it is the finals, the reputation of the

school is at stake and I cannot take a chance."

The boy pleaded, "Coach,I promise I will not let you down.

I beg of you, please let me play."

The coach had never seen the boy plead like this before.

He said, "OK,son, go, play. But remember, I am going against my better judgment and

the reputation of the school is at stake.

Don't let me down." The game

started and the boy played like a house on fire.

Every time he got theball, he Shot a goal. Needless to say,

he was the best player and the

star of the game. His team had a spectacular win.

When the gamefinished, the coach went up to him

and said, "Son, how could I have beenso wrong in my life.

I have never seen you play like this before.

Whathappened?
How did you play so well?"

The boy replied, "Coach, my father is

watching me today."
The coach turned around and looked at the place where the boy's father

used to sit.

There was no one there.

He said, "Son, your father used to

sit there when you came for practice, but I don't see anyone there

today.

" The boy replied, "Coach, there is something I never told you.

Myfather was blind. Just four days ago, he died.

Today is the first day heis watching me from above."
