How to be self Motivated
 |
|
Motivation is something that
drives or causes you to act. Motivation is a motive-in-action. It is motive
that propels you into action.
Your success is hidden in
your motive and action and therefore these two must go hand in hand. If you
have motive and no action then you do not have success. If you have action and
no motive, you will not have success either.
Motivation helps you
1.
To
dream, to conceive of an idea, a concept
2.
To
believe in your heart
3.
To
decide to do something to pursue your dreams and then realize your dreams
Motivation comes from your
belief system – the faith you have in your inner values. That means you need
always to believe in what you do in order to sustain your motivation.
Because of the repetition of
your self-suggestions, you stay motivated and focused. But this is your own
job. Others can inspire you; create a conducive environment which can be
motivating. But they cannot motivate you; they can only inspire you to motivate
yourself.
Motivation is so powerful
that it can persuade, convince and propel you into action. Motivation is the
driving force that can literally change your life.https://ranjith1977.blogspot.com/2019/08/Self-Esteem-principel.html
Your internal motivation (or
attitude motivation) comes from your sense of achievement, attitude towards
life, pride, beliefs, convictions, etc. your external motivation (incentive
motivation) comes from outside sources such as money, societal approval, fame
or fear or from incentives such as bonuses, commission, recognition, etc. Positive
self-motivation is the catalyst that fosters persistence, determination and
concentration of effort. It is the basis for all constructive human behavior
and achievement, since everything an individual does, whether positive or
negative, intentional or unintentional, is the result of motivation.
Winners In life are people
who have developed intense, stimulating positive self-motivation. We all have
some of it. The objective is to have a lot of it. We know that all
super-achievers have a high degree of self-motivation.

The story of the
“Four-Minute Mile” is illustrative of self-motivation. For several thousands of
years, people held the belief that it was impossible for any human being to run
a mile in less than four minutes. In ancient Egypt it was said that they
released lions to chase after slaves in order to make them run a mile within
four minutes but they failed. The best time ever recorded was 4 minutes and 06
seconds. Scientists, doctors and experts declared that there was no way a man
could run a mile in less than four minutes. They said that if any person should
try, “his heart would jump right out of his body”. But there was a man by the
name of Roger Bannister who believed
in himself and became self-motivated. He went through a systematic training
programme and in 1954 he ran the mile in less than four minutes and later
within a year, 37 other runners got motivated and achieved what was believed,
for a long time, to be impossible.
