Today's focus is on
motivation.
Motivation is one of the great
secrets of our mind.
Motivation is emotional fuel.
It is the starting point to any
step in life. Having clear
energy sources and motivation
channels is one of the main keys
to success.
Here are three direct ways to
pump up your life:
Step 1:
Focus on what thrills you!
Motivation is about excitement.
To be motivated in life, simply focus
on what thrills you.
If you face a motivation gap,
focus first on your passion.
When you take action out of
excitement, you build up
emotional fuel,
emotional reserves. When you
prioritize life around what
truly matters, you see your
motivation rise in a very
spectacular way.
- Are you excited
about your goals?
- Are you doing this for
yourself or for others?
- Let go of "shoulds"!
- Take a white page and write
down 10 things you feel excited
in doing.
Step 2:
Identify what drains you
Everything in
and around us is energy.
Some activities, behaviors
or locations tend to drain us;
some others pump us up.
We are bombarded by millions of
psychic impressions each day.
Our being is a vast
system digesting and integrating
new energies every single
minute.
Check your environment:
- Is anything draining your
energy?
- It can a demanding partner
who puts you down.
- It can be this colleague at
work who does not respect you.
- It can be draining friends
who feed themselves from
your presence.
- Spend more time with those
who believe in you and stay away
from those who drain you.
- Design your environment to
support your goals.
- How much more do you want to
give up before you say: Enough!
Develop clear boundaries and
give when you want to give, not
when you are forced to.
Build clear boundaries to
protect your mind and personal
space. Learn to say "No",
"maybe", "Later, not now".
Step 3:
Take action
Doubts, fears, hesitations are
closed doors. They are what
holds you back. When you listen
to doubts and fears, you hold
back from life. You feed
inaction and passivity. To break
that cycle, simply take
action. Start by
small steps.
What is the first thing that
comes to your mind.
- Aim for good not
perfect.
- See any mistake as a
learning experience.
- Shift your mind and start
loving risk rather than avoiding
it. "I love risk!" "Any
challenge is an opportunity to
grow"
- Action is what brings you
from where you are to where you
want to be.
Why does action give you
energy? Because action gives
you life. The moment you take
action you manifest your
natural life power and
stimulate your body and mind.
Action means life.
These were the tips for today.
Enjoy!
