Motivation's Holy Grail

"Lose weight now, ask me how!"
"You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink."
"My students don't care, they so don't seem motivated."
"In conclusion, some current solutions to the problem create additional problems: Sainshu classes fail to build on previous classes; having students repeat a class neglects or even discourages their motivation. In many cases, such make-up classes, instead of empowering students or putting them in charge of their learning, may actually make them feel more like failures than before."

How do you cultivate motivation in your students?
