Motivational Monday: What Motivates me today?

My motivation today is to finish a story. I started The Power Behind the Throne last week with about 300 words and then got stuck. This morning I realized that the words I have written do not go with this story. This means I either have to change the title, which is based on a poem I wrote several years ago, or start over again. I am starting over again, but I am not going to get rid of the words I have written because I can use them in another story. 

I have another idea for a story, which does not work with either story I have started. My third idea is about a Jackalope. I did some research on the myth of the Jackalope this last weekend. I think a Jackalope would make a good character is a fantasy story, so I will use it. This means I am now working on three stories instead of two.
