Nowadays I find chocolate and/or chocolate-based snacks to be great motivators. Everyone loves chocolate.

Being immortal must have a lot of attractions. You can travel all over the world, see everything, do everything. But what happens if you are immortal and your friends and family are not? You are then destined to watch them age and die.
