Movies to Get You Motivated

Looking for movies to get you motivated? Yes please. All work and no play can really leave you feeling unmotivated. We could all use a little break from our studies sometimes. Winter holidays are the best time to kick back with an inspirational movie.  So if you’re feeling a little unmotivated, get some popcorn and put on one of these to get you excited to study again.

• Motivational Movie Number 1: The Pursuit of Happiness

I’m going to go ahead and put this as number one. You’ll see why…

If this doesn’t help you count your blessings and remember how privileged you are to be able to study and attend school, then you’d be missing the point! Plus, who can resist Will Smith playing dad to his own son?!

• Motivational Movie Number 2: Dead Poet’s Society

Robbin Williams in his role as English teacher Mr John Keating, reminds us that “No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.”

• Motivational Movie Number 3: Forrest Gump

His positivity and curiosity for life is an inspiration for anyone!

• Motivational Movie Number 4: A Beautiful Mind

This movie reminds us that no matter how intelligent are great our marks are, things are not always that easy, but by pushing through and working hard, our dreams are achievable!

• Motivational Movie Number 5: Legally Blonde

This is one for the light hearted! Sometimes when we begin to study, we feel out of our depth. Elle Wood initially followed her ex-boyfriend to one of the most prestigious colleges around – Harvard before she realises that she is capable of so much more! This motivational movie even contains an inspiring “study montage” which shows that working hard eventually pays off.
