What drives me?

"Karmanye Vadhikaraste Ma Phaleshu Kadachana,
Ma Karma Phala Hetur Bhurmatey Sangostva Akarmani" -- Sri-madbhagvat-gita

Above mentioned is the most insightful prose from the sacred texts named "Sri-madbhagvat-gita" which translates to-- "You have a right to perform your prescribed action,but you are not entitled to the fruits of your action.
Never consider yourself the cause of the results your activities,and never be associated to not doing your duty.
"

The philosophy exhibited by the above prose is the motivation in its most pristine form that I constantly seek within me. The prose may seem mystical and even misleading at first glance but when put together in the context provides meaning to actions. The reader might be wondering why I am getting spiritual all of a sudden. Well.... when I look at the question, I can't help but delve deep ("over analyze" as put by someone) into the philosophical aspect of it!

Now getting back to the physical world, making information more useful to the society through computational efforts is what has been keeping me intellectually alive in United States thus far. I will be talking more on the motivational part of my academic work in the next section......
