What Gets You Going? Have you ever thought what moves you to action? Why you do what you do and why you don’t do something no matter how many times you are told to do so. There is always a reason for all of us to do something and it is called our MOTIVATION. It is the driving force behind our actions. Do you know what motivates you to action? It is different for each one of us. We all have our reasons to feel motivated. No external force can motivate us. Motivation is an internal work. When you watch a video, you may get inspired by it and then what you say to yourself generates motivation in your personality. So after seeing someone perform or after watching an inspiring video if you think, “Wow! That’s great! I will also do something like this” this fills you with motivation and leads you towards hard work. This way, success comes to you. So, how to know what gets you going? Check out the following points: 1. When we dream our future, we feel motivated to fulfill that dream so Dream and Dream BIG! 2. Have you noticed when your parents or a teacher gives you a pat on the back, you feel very motivated to perform even better. 3. When we have encouraging and supporting people around, we feel motivated. So get surrounded by the right kind of people. Choose your friends wisely who are positive and encouraging and become the one for them as well. 4. There are some negative motivators also. For example, competition, anger, jealousy or even boredom etc. When someone is performing better than you, motivate yourself by thinking that you can reach there as well and then start thinking what efforts you have to make to reach there. Put your energy to give your best effort without focusing on the negative energy of competition. 5. Fear is a great motivator. Use fear as an engine in your life’s car and not as a brake and then fear of failure will always help you feel motivated and perform better. Stay motivated and stay happy!
