It happens to us all.  One day we’re motivated and the next day we’re in the dumps having ourselves a pity party.  Staying motivated is not easy.  If it were, everybody would do it.  But, it can be done.  You believe it can be done and that’s why you’re reading this right now – good for you!

From Master To Disaster

You may have felt good about a certain job or project when it began.  You were filled with enthusiasm and motivation.  Then you hit a few speed bumps and unexpected failures and your motivation waned.  You may have fallen into depression and decided to give up.  All of those positive thoughts turned into negative ones.

We’ve all experienced these emotions that can cause us to give up prematurely.  All that upsurge of energy when we started a new project inevitably ends as dreams become reality and we lose our confidence.

Control Your Emotions

You must turn these negative emotions around and the best way to do that is to understand them, analyze them and what caused them. We lose our motivation as we lose our focus, our confidence and our direction. If you can learn to control these three emotions you can control your life.

Emotion #1: Focus on what you really want.

Be specific and be positive.  We generally think in terms of what we don’t have rather than focus on what we want.  Don’t focus on your fears but what you can do to overcome them.  Don’t focus on being poor but on a plan to create wealth.

To do this make a plan to get there one step at a time.  You don’t become the president of a company until you’ve come up from the ranks.  Focus on your plan to achieve your objectives and your goals.  Be realistic on your goals.  Goals that are unreachable can lead to depression.  But even small goals that are achieved lead to increased motivation.

Emotion #2: Boost your confidence

You can boost your confidence by taking stock on what you already have and not what you lack.  You’ll probably discover you’re more successful than you think.  We waste our mind power being jealous of others instead of working on achieving our own aspirations. Don’t take your strengths for granted and count your failures one by one.  Count your blessings one by one and whatever your mind thinks it can accomplish.

Emotion #3: Without direction there is no motivation.

You must create a day-to-day strategy.  Make a to-do list and do it.  Mark off each item once it’s accomplished and do not mark it off until it’s done.

You’ll eventually get tired of looking at it on your list and do it.  By making a list or outline of what needs to be done, you’ll find ways to do it and you’ll believe that you truly deserve success.  Don’t waste time by worrying about the future.  Start today by doing something to change your future for the better.  Today’s actions can create a better future.

Change Happens In Your Mind

Don’t be surprised or depressed about a loss of motivation.  Look at it as an opportunity to step back and analyze what you’re doing wrong and what you’re doing right.  Discover your faults and correct them.  When you re-evaluate your plans and goals from a fresh perspective, you’ll feel a new surge of enthusiasm and motivation.
