Hello, getting motivation and staying motivated is not an easy thing to do, but, i think i have found a way of motivating myself.
I re-affirm to my self that LOVE is the principal motivating factor that ever exist. I simply tell myself that "i love myself and there are people who love me" this simple statement always propell me to action. This is so for so many reasons,but one is to meet the needs of those i love (which i am one of them)
That made sense...some sort of an acceptance to given situations and the ability to reason out issues also can be a great motivator! Most of all the capability to assume onus for all the obstacles you face helps!
I find that in any great pursuit, it can be very easy to lose motivation. But there are a few things i currently use to keep me motivated.
1.) Set goals, no goal is ridiculous, just make it real for what you want to put in. For example if you set a goal to make 6 digits in one year, understand that and be prepared to bust your *** to reach that goal.(speak in definitives) I will make $100,000 this year vs. i will try to get rich this year
2.) Realize that as far as is know, you only have ONE life. And tell yourself that you are to demand the best of it.
3.) Develop habits that align with your goals, remove ones that dont.
4.) Be hard on yourself when it comes to self-discipline, noone is motivated 100% of the time, good habits and self-discipline is what gets you through when you lose morale.
5)Remove failure from your vocabulary, there are no failures, there are only stumbling blocks.
--I also find that visualization works quite well. while your in the shower, daydream about having attained your goals.
I find that I can be motivated if it is something I am interested in more so than if I am getting paid a lot of money. Once in a while everyone hits a rut though and the best thing to do is go do something completely different. When I can't look at a computer any longer I go on a walk outside or take a nap and then get back at it recharged.
Sometimes you can not depend on motivation, but rather have to fall back on discipline. Sometimes you will have a few off days, feel gloomy and there will be little to shake the feelings, even more so when things are not as you wish they were.
This is where you have to use pure willpower to just get the job done, and this is discipline.
I know everyone wants to be motivated, I do myself also, but you still have a job to do, a business to run, and sometimes you have to be like NIKE, "Just Do It".
But to answer the question directly, I generally take a few days off, go for walks, get my feet in the grass and get back to nature instead of the tech and other un-natural things we do for hours on end to do our jobs.
Theres a great thread on here with many tips for motivation. The main key is to try and try again if you dont succeed, because one day you will succeed.
So right Blackpool!
I have always been motivated by "Money" and when I started trying to make some online it was not going the way I hoped so I tried again and again till one day something 'clicked' (no pun intended) What I had done was use something that I had done as a kid when I was bored and wanted to entertain myself. Something that was lost in all the years of working for the other guy came creeping back. What I call it is " Open Minded Creativity"
The challenge to come up with something new and unique motivates me to no end and seeing it produce the original motivating factor "Money" motivates me even more!
Some may say I'm too materialistic but I think thats what all of us are here for.
Everyone...Try to use a little Open Minded Creativity and throw some new irons in the fire. You may be surprised at what simple little thing can work. If not ...try again!
I have goals that I strive to reach every day when I get home from work. Since I only have a few hours after getting my family situated each night I do not make my list any bigger than I can accomplish so I do not set myself up for failure.
The best part of the motiviation though, is an online friend who is at the same level as I, and we both hook up each night and tackle new techniques that we have both picked up along our journeys.
This has has been a true blessing and a very positive influence for furthering my goals towards success
