HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF?

1)How to Boost Confidence

The first motivation killer is lack of confidence.

 When this happens to me, it's usually because

 I'm focusing entirely on what I want and neglecting 

what I already have. When you only think about what 

you want, your mind creates explanations for why you 

aren't getting it.The way to get out of this thought

 pattern is to focus on gratitude. Set aside time to

 focus on everything positive in you life. Make a 

mental list of your strengths, past successes, and 

current advantages.This will rejuvenate your 

confidence and get you motivated to build on your 

current success.

2)Developing Tangible Focus

The second motivation killer is lack of focus. 

How often do you focus on what you don't 

want, rather than on a concrete goal? We

 normally think in terms of fear. I'm afraid

 no one will respect me. I'm afraid of being 

alone. If you're caught up in fear based thinking,

the first step is focusing that energy on a well 

defined goal. By defining a goal, you automatically

 define a set of actions. If you have a fear of poverty,

 create a plan to increase your income. The key 

is moving from an intangible desire to concrete, 

measurable steps.

3)Developing Direction

The final piece in he motivational puzzle is direction. 

If focus means having an ultimate goal, direction

 is having a day-to-day strategy to achieve it. 

A lack of direction kills motivation because without

 an obvious next action we succumb to procrastination.

 The key to finding direction is identifying the activities 

that lead to success. For every goal, there are activities 

that pay off and those that don't. Make a list of all your

 activities and arrange them based on result. Then

 make an action plan that focuses on the activities

 that lead to big returns.
