I did a post today on things that I do and what others can do to better motivate themselves. I would like to get other ideas from you on what motivates you. List them here or just leave a comment on the post for others to read and try out.
My goals motivate me. Goals such as travel, family, income aims. The best motivation comes from within, and the daily reviewing of well defined goals are, I believe, the best motivation any one can get.
My goals motivate me to work extra extra hard. I'd like to own 1000 acres in the future so I can set-up my retirement/rescue village for horses. I will get there, the passion is high so the motivation is easy.
When I just need a pick-me-up ---- I usually listen to music in my car really load. But, when I need really motivation in life, I try to look at what I am doing and realize that it will all pay off eventually. I am in an in between stage of life and I will reach my goals soon enough. I am also very motivated by helping others. I am a giver. Sometimes that I good thing and sometimes it is not..
I find it really bad that people are getting motivated by materialism...and the crave for materials giving happiness is increasing day by day. If only, people realize early in life....that it is not what you have outside....but what you have within you that determines happiness. The only thing that motivates me is...to acquire skills to be able to do something really good and meaningful for society.
