Your Success Fuel - Self MotivationSelf motivation is the inner drive that can help turn your "mountains into mole hills." Much like developing a nice figure through cardio and resistance exercise, your motivation muscle can also be developed. Below we discuss what motivation is and also have Tips on how you can begin building yours.
Self motivation is that fire in your bones that won’t let you give up, even if you fall down or make mistakes. And it gives you the energy to keep going when you are tired. Motivation isn’t all-powerful, but is the “fuel” that is vital for success in any endeavor. No matter what you choose to do, they’ll also be those days when it’s hard, and quitting or compromising looks good. Building your “motivation muscle” not only helps through those tough days, but gives you the strength to get up and back on the path even if you did quit or compromise. What is self motivation? It is "the desire to achieve a goal, or not achieve a goal ." Positive Goals
Fear Goals
Both types of goals can motivate us. Still, it seems the Fear Goals can create the greatest short- term motivation. On the other hand, "positive" goals will generate sustained motivation. As an ancient proverb states:

Be, Do, Have You have to Be in order to Do in order to Have . In other words, you have to Be the right person in order to Do the right actions, in order to Have the right results (achieve your goal).
How can you Be the right person? First, confess that you can do it. The reason a vast majority of people never achieve anything is because they don't believe down deep that they can. To change this, you can simply take your “motivation vitamin” each morning.
Example - "I CAN lose 20Ib and fit into my jeans."
How can you Do the right things? Set "reasonable" and "attainable" goals. If you're 175Ib now, please don't set a goal to be 130Ib by next month, it's not going to happen. Instead, a “reasonable” and “achievable” goal would be to lose 1-2Ibs a week. By setting goals that you can comfortably achieve, you are setting the stage for your success. Be good to yourself. Set goals that you feel motivated to achieve, but you don’t have to be perfect every single day to achieve them.
How can you Have the right results? Diligence.
Building self motivation is like putting $1000 into a mutual fund. At first, it doesn't seem like anything is happening, but as time goes on a little becomes much. Building motivation is very similar in that as you continue to develop yours day by day, after a while people will notice a change in you, and in time you will notice a change in yourself. Tip- Confess "I can achieve .........." every morning when you wake up. Tip- Set goals that are achievable. An example would be if you've just begun exercising, your goal could be to do all 3 of your workouts this week.
