"My motivation comes primarily from within. I regularly push myself and remind myself that I am here to help others. I am driven by a true servanthood mentality. In addition to this, I find external motivation from working with positive people who can teach me along the way. New knowledge and a fresh approach are fantastic motivators."

It's wonderful that you're internally motivated and want to help others so much. To further personalize your answer, you could discuss in more depth why you like to help people. Where did this drive originate? How do you know when you've helped someone, and how does it make you feel?
