This Monday is known as “March Forth and Do Something Day.” It’s a simple play on words based on the date — March Fourth — but its intentions run deeper than a pun: It’s a day that encourages us to get motivated and to get things done. And because it falls on a Monday this year, we could all probably use a little motivation.

Of course, this being The Current, we know there’s nothing that can spark motivation quite like a good playlist. What songs’ lyrics help you to get motivated? Let’s explore that.

So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that inspire action, and provide encouragement and motivation?
