In any endeavor, in school, business, or sports, there is a key resource that can be your primary
tool in progressing towards success, or it can be the reason you never get where you wanted to go,
and you absolutely fail.
That tool?
Motivation of course.
Your
having, or lacking, motivation, can be, and probably will be, the most important deciding factor in
your online sucess. It is absolutely crucial if you plan on getting anywhere. Without it, you won't
get very far.
So how do you get motivated?
That part is really up to you. You
first have to know what your motivating factor is, and why you're doing what you want to do in the
first place. Is it for an ultimate outcome; do you want to be able to take the family on a trip
every year, or do you just want a new car?
Having that purpose, that sense of why, will
be the difference maker between a you that doesn't achieve your goals, and a you that is
successful.
This is the fuel for your tank. This is what will keep you driven during
those late hours when you are ready to call it a night. This is the voice that nudges you and
suggests a few more minutes, and takes an hour.
You need that voice.
Once you
know what pushes your buttons, don't let yourself forget it. If your kids are your driving force,
have their photos around. Keep their picture just about your computer screen to help remind yourself
not to waste time, and to take care of what you have to take care of! You get the idea. Make it easy
for yourself!
This applies to any motivating factor you may have. If you need to, write
down something on a post it, and keep it visible on your desk where you work. Place a few around the
house that will get you back on track if you ever need to regain focus. You may look crazy, sure,
but I'd rather be rich and eccentric, than broke and cool anyday. Wouldn't you?
Now,
sometimes you have a LACK of motivation, and you almost feel stuck.
If you followed my
advice, these situations shouldn't pose too much of a problem.
Once you see that picture
(or whatever it may be) that little voice, that nagging feeling, will kick back into action and get
you going in the direction that you need to go. The post its and reminders will keep you conscious
of where you are at, and where you need to get to. Consider them your compass and map.
That's it!
There are many more ways to do this, of course, but these two steps are
simple, and effective. If you implement them now, I guarantee you will get more accomplished than
you have in the past few weeks, if not months!
But don't be someone who reads and
forgets, read and take action! Implement these tools into your life right now, and don't let the 5
minutes you took reading this go to waste.
