What motivates you?

Question

Im just curious to what motivates people to get up and exercise. I try and beg my friends to join me for my run and exercise but they say no and claim they have no motivation!! Is that true, people who dont work out have no motivation or is that just another way of saying "im lazy?" Well what motivates me is fitting into smaller pants, getting compliment, and the fact that exercising just makes me feel better about myself and everything. I have more energy..So Im asking what motivates you?
