“Work Harder”, working hard is not as easy as it sounds. On the other hand, Motivation makes somethings, a little bit easier.

Whether you are just embarking on your programming journey, or you are a seasoned veteran whose first “hello world” was in Fortran, we all have one thing in common, and that is the need to stay motivated.

To me, motivation is the fuel that powers my engine (brain) and contributes massively to the efficient functioning of my vehicle (body), which translates to productiveness in various tasks, be it programming or washing dishes (even this requires some form of motivation at times).

This article is not about how to find motivation for washing dishes. Still, it’s centered around how programmers like me, and you can find inspiration and motivation from others just like us and others that are very different from us.

So below is a list of five videos I have come across on YouTube during my programming journey. These videos have sparked some form of motivation to bash my keyboard and code for that extra hour. If none of this video spark motivation, then take comfort in the fact that you have found some slightly beneficial form of procrastination.
