Passion can be about anything; it is the same for motivation. Mr. Noel Martinez finds his job to be something he is passionate about.
“Working with my students, I think seeing them accomplish certain things is very satisfying. An example of this is our TAFE kids. When they compete in area and state and practice and work very hard, they advance, making me very proud of them.” Martinez said.
Seeing this, Martinez is very proud of them and wants them to be successful and continue to achieve more. Helping them out makes him passionate about his career and ensuring they gain everything.
“I am passionate about my career, and by helping my students be successful, I am also successful,” Martinez said.
Aside from his passion for his career, he also finds hobbies and activities that motivate him.
“Another thing that keeps me motivated is finding things to do outside work. Having something to look forward to during vacation days or breaks can detach me from work and give a personal motivation,” Martinez said.
While he loves his career, Martinez finds new things to do to help him take a break from his job and be motivated to do the best he can to help students achieve their goals. His motivation comes from his students; he wants them to try their best and be the people who give them that support.
