To my understanding motivation is that extra push needed to achieve what others think is unachieveable, the extra push needed to understand what others think is not to be understood, the extra push needed to bring the thoughts of our hearts into reality.
Now alot of persons today see motivation as a tool of success to be gotten from the pages of a book (mostly referred to as a motivational book).
For me my thought towards this is totally different.....
I am not stating that motivational books are out of place but rather I believe it should not be the ultimate for us. This is because no matter what you are been told to do if ones mind is not made up to do that, it will surely remain undone.
So therefor I see motivation as a tool for success to be derived from within an individual. As I will always tell my friends "the best person to motivate you is you"
This is how....
If one can tell himself the truth about life, identify all gray areas and is genuinely ready to work towards resolving all issues from identified areas I believe this readiness is the very first step of self motivation one can give himself or herself.
Having passion for work and a determined mind to achieve greatness is another way for self motivation.
Believing in oneself to perform the task ahead to deliver a perfect job it another great tool for self motivation.
Knowing ones limitation and overcoming such limitations is another tool for self motivation.
Keeping the right communication is a tool for self motivation that can not be overlooked. The communication you keep most push you to go beyond your limits positively by adding value to your life in all aspects of life.
In all, the most paramount tool of self motivation is to believe in yourself..... Believe you can do that project, believe you can take that test and pass, believe u can overcome that opstacle, believe that feet is achievable.
Believe in yourself and work towards it. You don't just believe and relax, rather you believe and work by planing and executing your plans to achieve success.
As you know.... He who fails to plan, plans to fail.
