can you help me ?

I'm curious to see what motivates different people to try harder.

I can tell you for me it's a few different things and I feel one of them makes me a little different cause of it. If I get close to failure even close I go into super motivational angry mental state cause of it. Failure isn't an option for me but obviously in reality it is possible it frightens me and pisses me off.

Also possitive motivation acknowledgment from peers or hitting personal goals help fuel the fire. Nothing like a clap on the back and someone saying wow dude you are strong as hell to make you feel good and want to keep that up.

Anyone else?
