Which word is better to use here?
"Motto" or "Slogan"
I want to say that my (..........) in life is "Never stop discovering new things".
Which word is better to use, I feel that slogan is more commercially than personally. Is that right?
Or there is a third word I should use?
Thanks

Your are spot on. Motto is best. Slogan is more for a company: 'Just do it' for Nike as an example.

You are right about slogan being more commercial, but you should say it is more "commercial than personal", not "commercially than personally". The latter is grammatically wrong as an adjective is expected after the verb "is".
Besides motto, you could also say "maxim" or "golden rule".

You are correct in your statement. Motto is a better choice for this situation.
