Motivation and How to Get Motivated

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

Motivation has become a popular word nowadays. There are motivational coaches and speakers, and motivational books and articles. What is it actually, and why do you need it?

Motivation is a driving force. In order to accomplish anything, you need a driving force, otherwise nothing will happen. A wish is not strong enough to make you take action. A wish is a weak desire. Only a strong desire can drive forward, to act and accomplish aims and goals.

In order to get motivated, you need to know exactly what it is that you want, to possess a strong desire, and to be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your goal.

More than often there is lack of motivation or only a short-lived one. How many times have you started enthusiastically a weight loss program, began a bodybuilding or aerobics training program or started to learn a foreign language, only to stop after a short while? Few people possess enough willpower and self-discipline to go through to the end with what they begin (this is one of the reasons I have written the book “Will Power and Self Discipline”).

It easier to show motivation in connection with a subject that is dear to you. If you desire something, but you don’t feel motivated enough to act, this means that the desire is not important enough. To be motivated to take action and do something in respect to your desire, you need to possess a really strong desire.

Motivation has much to do with the emotions and the imagination, which means that if you want to increase it, you have to work on your feelings and imagination.

Tips to increase your motivation:

1. Think, meditate and find out whether you really want to achieve your desire, and whether it is worth the effort and time.

2. Make your goal very clear. Writing it down will help.

3. Think often about your goal or desire.

4. Visualize your goal as already accomplished, and close your mind to contrary thoughts.

5. Read books or articles about the subject of your goal.

6. Read about people who have achieved success.

7. Think often about the benefits you will gain by achieving your goal.

8. Visualize, and think about how you would feel after achieving your goal.

9. Repeat positive affirmations such as: “I have the desire and inner strength to achieve my goal”. Repeat this affirmation often, with faith and strong feelings.

10. Start with doing something small concerning your goal. Success in small matters leads to greater success.

Motivation is the powerful engine that moves you towards success and accomplishments in every area.

Are You Listening To Yourself?

“Are You Listening To Yourself”???

As you open your eyes every day there are a few decisions that your brain makes subconsciously and these decisions determine the over all outcome of your day. Whether you have a good day or bad day depends on what your brain tells you.

For example… Most people don’t realize how easily there day can turn bad by subconscious thoughts. First thing in the morning when you get out of bed and you stub your toe(or stub your toe and almost rip your nail off of it like I did about two weeks ago) You can do two things…I’d have to guess that about 75% of people would have their brain tell them this is going to be a bad day! But, if you correct that and confirm the fact that it was just a single action that took place at the start of your day and it has nothing to do with how the rest of your day will unfold then your telling yourself that your going to have a good day.

Focus on your thoughts because whether you want to believe it or not “Thoughts Are Things”. If you tell yourself “its going to be a bad day” then guess what?-Its going to be a bad day!!!

“Are You Listening To Yourself?” If not then you need to pay attention to what your telling yourself throughout your life so that you can live a better life!!!

You Cannot Change Your Past!

Friday, August 21st, 2009

You Cannot Change Your Past” and even though we all know this we still repeat that phrase…”If I knew then what I know now I would be so much happier!”

So take what you know now and change your future!  The direction we all head in is based on the actions that we do today, so Take Action!!!

I can speak for myself in saying that, there are times I fall into the hole of thinking how much better my life would be today if I could go back and change what I did “Yesterday”.  Seconds later I have to change my thought process because that mindset can and will lead to depression!

Right now decide on changing what you think about, “Thoughts Are Things“!  Make a decision to think about what you can do to change your future not what you can’t change about your past!

Please feel free to comment and let me know what you think about this!
