What motivates you to work hard?

I have my Economics GCSE tomorrow and I have spent the past 7 hours since I got back from school at 5:00pm doing nothing.

Not having fun because I feel too guilty.

Not studying because I've just lost even the little motivation I previously had.

Everyone has their own driving force that motivates them to work hard,

So hopefully if everyone shares their motivation, I will be able to find some myself.

Thank you

If I'm honest I've always been worried about letting my teachers down. They have spent the past years teaching me everything I need to know, spending countless hours printing out sheets and creating resources. I feel that the least I can do is pass the exam to show them I appreciate everything they did for me.

Yeah to be fair to them they're great. And I don't think they get the credit they deserve most of the time
