That list is slightly inaccurate.
The seven Capital sins are: Pride Avarice Envy Wrath Lust Gluttony Sloth But you should not discount the 4 Cardinal virtues: Prudence Justice Fortitude Temperance Nor the 3 Theological virtues: Faith Hope Charity |

How come fear isn't on that list? Fear of failure, or fear of consequences, etc.?

You forgot fear. Fear is a huge motivator for most people, wether they realize it or not. For me, pride and "greed." Probably not greed really, but "reward."

what motivates me? looking at those who weren't motivated and seeing what became of them.
when i look at someone who's 60 years old and barely makes more money than i do, it motivates me to finish school. when i see someone who's 600+ pounds and rides a rascal around the grocery store, it motivates me to take care of my body. when i see the friends i had in highschool who got hooked on drugs, it motivates me to stay clean... seriously, seeing someone who was a good friend 4 or 5 years ago that is still flipping burgers because he spends too much time with his crack pipe is excellent motivation. |

I don't think everyone is motivated by one of the seven deadly sins...
Honestly, if I think about it, I don't really know what I could say 'motivates' me. Survival? I work so I can live, but I don't have a family of my own, or kids, so I'm not working for anyone else's survival. I do have some fun and have some hobbies... but as for what motivates me? I couldn't put a finger on it. |

I get out of bed everyday because I love my family and want to be a Marine officer more than anything in life.

Power Money (which reinforces power) sex ETA: not my order of motivators, but power and money turn most people to the dark side in an instant. |
