Easy ways to motivate yourself
Sign a pact with yourself:-
Always make a deal with yourself. This not only helps you in planning things but also motivates you to work harder and reach for your goal. Promise yourself rewards and the process shall get easy.
Be enthusiastic
Learn to be enthusiastic. This gets you into the motivated frame of mind and the task gets simpler.
Question yourself
Ask yourself empowering questions every morning. It is very important to feel good and happy about yourself. The morning questions get you in the mood for striving harder to achieve your goals and incorporate positive feelings into you.
Create small goalposts:- Set smaller targets to achieve first, before reaching out for the bigger ones.
Do the toughest tasks first:- This will help you ease out the smallest worries and boost your self-confidence.
Do not compare yourself with others
Comparing yourself with others can kill your motivation. Remember everyone has different priorities in life and they can never match up. Focus on your list and how you can improve them.
Go easy:- Instead of jumping into something, head slowly. This will not only help you understand your targets but also help you achieve them better.
Break it down:- Break your task into small projects. Focus on the smallest task first. Prioritise what needs to be done first and what later.
Remember to have fun:- Or create fun in a task. Then you’ll stay motivated to do and finish it.
Get out of your comfort zone:- Face your challenges to get a real boost of motivation.
Don’t fear failure
Instead redefine it as feedback and as a natural part of a successful life. As Michael Jordan said: “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” Also, try to find the valuable lesson(s) in each of your failures. Ask yourself: What can I learn from this?
Do some research:-... ...on what you are about to do. Then your expectations will be more grounded in reality and you can also get good hints on what difficulties that you might run into along the w a y . Managing y o u r expectations can lower the o f t e n a l m o s t explosive initial enthusiasm. But it can also lessen the lack of motivation that usually follows when most of that enthusiasm has dissipated. When you know what has happened to others in similar situations - what path they have walked - you can adapt and try their solutions (and personal variations of those) and your own. This makes the worries and challenges easier to handle. Both emotionally - since you know at least some of the things that will happen and that others have lived through it before - and practically.
Figure out why you’re doing something
If you don’t know or don’t have good enough reason to do something then it will be hard to get it done. Do things that you have really strong reasons to do. If you want to do something then figure out a good reason to do it. If you can’t find one consider dropping it and doing something that you have a good reason to do instead.
Write down your goals and reasons for working towards them
Tape them on your wall, computer or bathroom mirror. Then you’ll be reminded throughout the day and it becomes easier to stay on track and focused.
Take The Positivity Challenge!
Learn to think more positively most of the time. Learn to let to go of negative threads of thought before they have a chance to take hold of you. You might not be able to be positive all the time no matter what happens. But I think most of us can improve on our positive thinking and the results it can lead us to. Perhaps more than you realise right now.
Cut down on TV:- Do you watch it too much? Watch less of what they are doing in TV-land and do more of what you want to do in life.
Re-programme your information intake
Programme out negative and c y n i c a l thoughts from the media and s o c i e t y . R e d u c e y o u r information intake. Then programme in positive news and entertainment, more of your own thoughts and useful information such as personal growth tapes and books. Be selective and keep it positive.
Make use of your creativity
Take out a piece of paper. Write at the top of the page what area in your life you would like to have more ideas about. Perhaps you want ideas to earn more money or become a healthier person. Then brainstorm until you have written down 20 ideas on that topic. Then try for 10 more. Not all ideas will be good. But some will. And as you make use of your creativity you not only discover useful ideas. You also discover just how creative you can be if you try and how motivating and great that feels.
Find out what makes you happy:- Then do that. As much as you want or can.
Listen while you’re on the move Build your own small library of motivational/ personal development tapes. Listen to them while you are driving, riding the bus or your bike, while you are out running or walking.
Think outside your box
Don’t imagine the future from the box of what you have now. Just because your mind is in box of previous experiences doesn’t mean that’s the limits of the world. Your possibilities are much larger. Create the future from the now and from nothing rather than your past to experience bigger changes with fewer limitations than you would if you created it from what you can see from your box.
Make each day count:- We don’t have all the time in the world. So focus on today and do the things you really want to do.

Don't Ever Stop Dreaming...!!!!!!
Dreams are a big part of our Lives
And You must do whatever it takes
To make them a Reality;
By the plans you make,
The course you take,
And the things you do.
Don't dwell on past mistakes.
Leave yesterday behind,
Along with all it's problems,
Worries and doubts.
Realize you can't change the past,
But you can start a new tomorrow.
Don't try to do everything at once;
Take one step at a time,
Don't ever be afraid to try the Impossible
No matter what others may think.
Remember you are Unique
In your own special way.
Don't ever stop Dreaming!
Don't ever stop wanting what's right for you!
Don't Ever Stop Dreaming...!!!!!!

My child,
When I get old, I hope you understand 'n have patience with me
In case I break the plate, or spill soup on the table because I’m losing my eyesight, I hope you don’t yell at me.
Older people are sensitive, always having self pity when you yell.
When my hearing gets worse and I can’t hear what you’re saying, I hope you don’t call me ‘Deaf!’
Please repeat what you said or write it down.
I’m sorry, my child.
I’m getting older.
When my knees get weaker, I hope you have the patience to help me get up.
Like how I used to help you while you were little, learning how to walk.
Please bear with me, when I keep repeating myself like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.
Please don’t make fun of me, or get sick of listening to me.
Do you remember when you were little and you wanted a balloon? You repeated yourself over and over until you get what you wanted.
Please also pardon my smell. I smell like an old person.Please don’t force me to shower.
My body is weak.
Old people get sick easily when they’re cold. I hope I don’t gross you out.
Do you remember when you were little? I used to chase you around because you didn’t want to shower.
I hope you can be patient with me when I’m always cranky. It’s all part of getting old.
You’ll understand when you’re older. And if you have spare time, I hope we can talk even for a few minutes.
I’m always all by myself all the time, and have no one to talk to.
I know you’re busy with work.
Even if you’re not interested in my stories, please have time for me.
Do you remember when you were little? I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear.
When the time comes, and I get ill and bedridden, I hope you have the patience to take care of me.
I’m sorry if I accidentally wet the bed or make a mess.
I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life.
I’m not going to last much longer, anyway.
When the time of my death comes, I hope you hold my hand and give me strength to face death.
And don’t worry..
When I finally meet our creator, I will whisper in his ear to bless you. Because you loved your Mom and Dad.
Thank you so much for your care.
We love you. ! ♥
