As you embark on your journey to seek success how many times do you find yourself not doing as much as you should be doing but expecting results, and great results at that. Then once you see that you aren’t achieving as you would like, you lose all faith in yourself and blame others! If you are that person then this post is for you, as you are most like the people that’s irritating the big guy above.
Self motivation (as defined by wikipedia) is the ability to motivate yourself, to find a reason and the necessary strength to do something, without the need of being influenced to do so by another person.
I set goals you set goals, they set goals we all set goals. But why is it that some people seem destined for success while others suck from the start. It’s not because those who suck are horrible people, its just because they have lost faith in there own abilities thus causing them a loss of self motivation. And as soon as this happens this is when we look for answers from above. Such as:
- I didn’t have time to study today, can you help me pass that test tomorrow?
- Man, I forgot to look at my goals sheet, can you get me up to speed?
- If you make me rich I’ll stop being lazy?
- I lost faith in myself can you get this done for me?
You cant be so crazy to think that rewards will come to those who chill, and by chill I mean those who just like to take it easy. Chilling is a verb, but it is a one that should not be in your vocabulary because chilling is a negative activity as far as your success and goals go. If you want to be lazy, then be lazy but when you start seeing a growing goals list but no results please don’t beg for the reward, that’s like going to sleep while driving a car and expecting to get to your destination. Oh you’ll make it somewhere, but I’m positive it will not be where you want to be. Chilling is a negative activity that will hurt your self esteem and self motivation because if you want victory you must take action. So have faith in yourself and strive for your goals and chilling is just not the way.
My Goal: Learn To Dance
I remember when I was younger I was really into people who did break dancing and pop locking, I thought that was cool. Well I had always dreamed about me doing the perfect robot in front of a huge crowd, and moving in ways that would put Michael Jackson to shame. I believed that I could’ve been a great dancer until one day I saw the competition, and they were good, they were real good. After seeing this and not having faith in myself I lost all motivation to learn because I felt there was no chance that I could amount to that level of “robotiness”. So I never practiced I just hoped and wished and everyday before I went to bed I would say “When I wake up tomorrow can you make me the best dancer” . Now you and I both know if anybody can make that happen the man above can, but I’m sure he was irritated when I kept asking to dance better but I never showed any effort to improve. Maybe if I would have at least practiced then I would have saw progress but because I had lost faith and I had no self motivation I let the idea of learning the robot fall into the past. The moral is to keep the faith no matter what and stay motivated because with enough hard work you can achieve success quicker than you think.
Ways to deal with your problems:
We all have problems that cause us to reach roadblocks in our life. The easy way out is to let it stop you from reach your goals. The more demanding way would be to find a solution and increasing your Self Motivation .
One thing you have to realize is that when problem solving you must continually gather information. You know you have a problem now probe for details, you might even realize with this new information, your problem may be different then what you thought it was. when gathering information about a problem you are having you can start off by asking yourself questions such as
- What is this problem effecting?
- How is this problem effecting me?
- What am I doing to solve this problem?
- Is this problem a new problem or is it the result of an even larger problem that should be dealt with first?
- If I have tried to solve this problem before why didn’t the first solution work?
By asking yourself questions you are opening up your mind to think of ways to gain faith and to find a solution. one way I choose to deal with these situations is by monitoring every solution that I try to implement in order to solve the problem. By monitoring your progress if you see that you are not successful then review your solutions and look for alternatives. get in the habit of doing this it really works.
Before you start begging and praying for help why don’t you do the big guy and yourself a favor by working on your motivation first. Ideas can only go so far ok. You have to have faith and motivation to implement those ideas and goals of yours. Don’t let asking for help be your first option. Get off your butt and try first then if you have given it all you have then its ok to ask for help.
This was a semi-humorous post meant to get a point across. I would like to imply that i believe prayer is good anytime of the day, anywhere on the map. So please feel free to prayer it will do your life a lot of good. You might even try praying for increased faith and self motivation. Richard Jackson

Motivation - I have some on good days, but some days it’s easier than others.
Clear goals help.
Negative people around does not.
