The word motivation broken down is simply the motive to action. What are your motives for acting in the way you do? What motivates you? Is it habit, money, success, recognition, fame? How do we keep up the motivation to continue to bring about dreams when are lose momentum and passion? When you lose focus, become distracted on secondary activities and procrastinate?

 

I recommend creating daily winning habits you do habitually instead of waiting for motivation to strike you. Don’t rely on motivation to do the things that need to be done, rely on discipline and daily habits to achieve. Yes, use motivation like you would putting salt on a meal for taste but you wouldn’t consider salt as a meal. A lot of people get all motivated and pumped up after reading, watching or listening to something motivational and think they have achieved something without taking action. I call this mental masturbation. The act of mentally getting off on information without taking action, an addiction most people don’t know they have. It can be TV, Books, Movies, Music, TV Shows, Audiobooks, Social Media, YouTube, Seminars, anything that gives you a mental information high without you taking action. Let the motivation move you into action and move you into the game of life, instead of watching on the sidelines pumped like a sports game without being on the field.

 

THE POWER OF I’LL SHOW YOU

The best motivation often comes when people tell you, “You can’t do this or you can’t that.” People rejecting you, people laughing at you, people talking behind your back. The best fuel we need to motivate ourselves sometimes comes from a vengeful state of “I’ll show you.” Or “You just wait and see.” Proving yourself to others and the world has been the fuel of motivation for many of the greats we have come to known. Without pushback to prove themselves it’s likely the greatest people would of only became good. Use this power of I’ll show you to motivate you in action, motivate you into the game of life, motivate you into goal completion and motivate you into pushing yourself through pain and discomfort when the going gets tough.

 

USE A JOURNAL TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF

Another great practice to keep up the motivation on your goals, is by using a journal. If you have been keeping a journal for some time you can look back at the years that have passed. Reviewing and planning your life with a journal gives you the motivation to keep working on your goals. You can look back at your life, see the goals you had and the personal growth you have achieved. You can look back a year and see what you did this day last year and the year before that. See the changes you have made and see the direction your life is going. See the growth in yourself and the changes you have made. Use your journal to review the week you had every Sunday and see what you achieved and plan for the next week. Write your goals down daily, weekly, monthly and keep up the forward momentum you need to keep grinding away on your goals to success. Don’t wait for someone to come along and turn you on and motivate you. Motivate yourself and be your own cheerleader.
