Decide where you’re going with self help motivation.
Do you feel as if you’ve reached a dead end in your life? That although you’ve learned some things and applied what you’ve learned in a few different areas, nothing seems to work? that you’re just left feeling empty?
Someone once said that the definition of insanity is “Doing the same things over and over yet expecting different results”.
If this is you, it’s time to make some changes.
- First off, find out where you are now
What are you truly passionate about? What are your burning desires? When you know what these are you will know what to focus on and what to ignore. This alone will save you huge amounts of time and will enable self help motivation.
- YOU must be in control of YOU
Beware of well meaning others telling you what you need for this will never enable your self help motivation. YOU must decide what it is that YOU want. Decide what it is that you want and write it down, memorize it, repeat it to yourself often. If someone asks you what it is that you want from life, you should be able to tell them exactly what you are going to achieve.
- We learn by doing
All the knowledge in the world is useless if it’s not put use. When we gain knowledge about that which we are truly passionate about, learning becomes easy and enjoyable. But that knowledge must be put into practice. When you’re focusing on something you’re passionate about you are less likely to be distracted from your destination by trivialities. Of course, if while you’re on your journey you find something really interesting that fits in with your overall plan, by all means go after it.
- Don’t be afraid to try something new
While it is sensible to be aware of taking risks you must not let fear hold you back. Often, we have been conditioned to be afraid of taking risks by those who around us who are to scared themselves to try anything new. When your faced with trying something new just go ahead and try it. Ask yourself. “What’s the worst that can happen”. This is how we learn. By trying and sometimes failing. You will learn something useful from any new experience so take what is useful discard what’s not and move on.
- Create a road map from where you are now to where you want to be
If you don’t know where you’re going, how will you know when you get there. Set markers along the way so that you can measure your progress.
- Create vivid images and moving pictures in your mind of what it is that you really want and run these mind movies often
The subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between that which we physically experience and that which we imagine. If you have a negative mindset, that is what your subconscious will accept as real and act upon, so keep those mind movies positive.
- Realize one thing above all else
YOU must be in control of YOU. Realize that you are in possession of personal power and use that power for self help motivation.
I wish you Health, Wealth and Happiness.
