Good motivation..?

Well I'll get right to the chase. I want to see you guys' opinion on my motivation. I don't want any of that "If that's what you think." or "It's your choice." crap. I want y'all's opinions, so here I go: My motivation:

In summer I had my PE (Pectus Excavatum) fixed. It was where my chest went inward. First I tried lifting weights thinking I was just plain skinny. I was wrong, so I got it fixed. After 5+ months of grueling pain from the surgery, I'm trying to work out again. The surgery really made me even less fit than I was. For the past...my life I've never really been that active. Now I'm a sophomore in HS and a good portion of my friends are working out and an even bigger portion have joined the fitness team at school. I wanted to join with them, but I decided I'd work out on my own for a year and join Junior year. When we go climbing or walking I'm always the one who tires out first. I want to be able to keep up with them too. When spring starts up we're supposedly gonna run together. That's my motivation and now I turn it over to you.

I know you said you don't want to hear it. But everybody's motivation is different. You have your own motivation the only way to tell if its good is it it drives you makes you want to push harder. Reach your goal and then some. That is the only way to tell if its good and only you will know if it is.

Looks like you've found your motivation. You're motivated to work out and get in better shape because you want to do the same things your friends are doing right? That is motivation enough I suppose. If I was you I would just get one of two of those buddies and work out together. Then you can join whatever club or team it is you wanted to join. In my personal experience you work out better and are more motivated when you do it with someone else. Cause you push each other and you have someone to talk to along the way. You keep each other motivated.
