This generation is one in which people can become stressed out, confused or stagnated in their activities. But within each of us, is the capability to do some phenomenal things. The major constraint, which can be held back the above stated potential, is motivation. So, as your motivational coach, I’m here to help you along the path of searching and rediscovering that motivation.
Understanding Motivation
Motivation is the energy driving an individual toward achieving his targets. It is the individual spirit that which keeps the passion or desire alive, in order to succeed in any adversity that is faced. As with anything, we all have times where we feel motivated and other times when we do not, but learning to stay motivated can lead to drastic change in our lives and career.
Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Motivation
For motivation to be effective, therefore, it is crucial to make distinctions between intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation. This is not a bribery system, it is drawn from within by satisfaction, passion and or purpose. On the other hand, extrinsic motivation is derived from external factors like reward, praise or approval by other people.
Both kinds are useful, but one must tend carefully to the intrinsic motivation. It is self-fulfilling when one works in some area he or she is excited about and this makes it easy to persevere when the odds are stacked against one.
Setting Meaningful Goals
Goal setting could easily be regarded as one of the most efficient methods of increasing motivation. In essence, goals are a set of objectives towards which one is working; they give a pathway when there is no way. Here’s how to set meaningful goals that inspire action:
1. Be Specific
The next step to identify when developing an action plan is to state and define your objectives. Replace idealistic objectives, such as, “I want to be successful.” with what success means to the individual.
2. Make it Measurable
Set some standards with which you can gauge your progress. This way you can have many milestones where you are able to achieve something before moving to the next step, which is very healthy for morale.
3. Ensure It’s Achievable
Make sure to create goals that will drive you but at the same time goals that can be achieved. This balance, too, also keeping you motivated.
4. Align with Your Values
Your goals must therefore correlate with your needs, beliefs and desires. It could also be said that when goals are set in accordance to the things that are valuable in your life, they become more valuable as well.
5. Set a Timeline
Treat your goals like a to-do list and give them time limits in order to make them more pressing. This sets in you a solid desire to engage in consistent practice.
Maintaining a positive thinking
Having positive thoughts is helpful for longevity in keeping up with the motivation levels. It defines how we think about stumbling blocks and difficulties. Engage in gratitude by thanking those things which you value in your life. This helps you look towards the positive and have the effect of helping you turn your mind towards abundance.
Further, learn how to overcome negative thoughts. In its place, learn to replace it with affirmations, with a constant reminding of one’s capabilities and past successes. Life your spirits—stick around people who make you feel good and remind you of the best version of yourself.
Failure as Growth
In life nothing is lost; it’s an opportunity to learn, move up and come out even stronger. Failures are good too, because they mean that when the similar situation occurs again, you will not make the same mistakes again. Accept difficulties as one of the processes and learn from worst outcomes but without negative self-attitudes. Yes, struggling creates resilience and this will help you built up your motivation to continue in the next days.
Celebration of Achievements
It is very important to mark achievements regardless of their scale. Acknowledging what you have done boosts your morale and brings out the best out of you. As simple as it may sound, these gestures of giving or taking something for a treat keeps the spirit alive whether you’d done it for yourself or with friends.
