Motivation: The Heart of Self-Improvement

Pain may some­times be the rea­son why peo­ple change. Get­ting flunked grades make us real­ize that we need to study.

Debts remind us of our inabil­ity to look for a source of income. Being humil­i­ated gives us the ‘push’ to speak up and fight for our­selves to save our face from the next embar­rass­ments. It may be a bit­ter expe­ri­ence, a friend’s tragic story, a great movie, or an inspir­ing book that will help us get up and get just the right amount of moti­va­tion we need in order to improve ourselves.

With the count­less neg­a­tive­ness the world brings about, how do we keep moti­vated and avoid get into the neg­a­tive trap? Try on the tips from A to Z …

A — Achieve your dreams. Avoid neg­a­tive peo­ple, things and places. Eleanor Roo­sevelt once said, “the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

B — Believe in your self, and in what you can do.

C — Con­sider things on every angle and aspect. Moti­va­tion comes from deter­mi­na­tion. To be able to under­stand life, you should feel the sun from both sides.

D – Don’t give up and don’t give in. Thomas Edi­son failed once, twice, more than thrice before he came up with his inven­tion and per­fected the incan­des­cent light bulb. Make moti­va­tion as your steer­ing wheel.

E – Enjoy. Work as if you don’t need money. Dance as if nobody’s watch­ing. Love as if you never cried. Learn as if you’ll live for­ever. Moti­va­tion takes place when peo­ple are happy.

F – Fam­ily and Friends – are life’s great­est ‘F’ trea­sures. Don’t loose sight of them.

G – Give more than what is enough. Where does moti­va­tion and self improve­ment take place at work? At home? At school? When you exert extra effort in doing things.

H – Hang on to your dreams. They may dan­gle in there for a moment, but these lit­tle stars will be your dri­ving force.

I – Ignore those who try to destroy you. Don’t let other peo­ple to get the best of you. Stay out of toxic peo­ple – the kind of friends who hates to hear about your success.

J – Just be your­self. The key to suc­cess is to be your­self. And the key to fail­ure is to try to please everyone.

K – keep try­ing no mat­ter how hard life may seem. When a per­son is moti­vated, even­tu­ally he sees a harsh life finally clear­ing out, paving the way to self improvement.

L – Learn to love your self. Now isn’t that easy?

M – Make things hap­pen. Moti­va­tion is when your dreams are put into work clothes.

N – Never lie, cheat or steal. Always play a fair game.

O – Open your eyes. Peo­ple should learn the horse atti­tude and horse sense. They see things in 2 ways – how they want things to be, and how they should be.

P – Prac­tice makes per­fect. Prac­tice is about moti­va­tion. It lets us learn reper­toire and ways on how can we recover from our mistakes.

Q – Quit­ters never win. And win­ners never quit. So, choose your fate – are you going to be a quit­ter? Or a winner?

R – Ready your­self. Moti­va­tion is also about prepa­ra­tion. We must hear the lit­tle voice within us telling us to get started before oth­ers will get on their feet and try to push us around. Remem­ber, it wasn’t rain­ing when Noah build the ark.

S – Stop procrastinating.

T – Take con­trol of your life. Dis­ci­pline or self con­trol jives syn­ony­mously with moti­va­tion. Both are key fac­tors in self improvement.

U – Under­stand oth­ers. If you know very well how to talk, you should also learn how to lis­ten. Yearn to under­stand first, and to be under­stood the second.

V – Visu­al­ize it. Moti­va­tion with­out vision is like a boat on a dry land.

W – Want it more than any­thing. Dream­ing means believ­ing. And to believe is some­thing that is rooted out from the roots of moti­va­tion and self improvement.

X – X Fac­tor is what will make you dif­fer­ent from the oth­ers. When you are moti­vated, you tend to put on “extras” on your life like extra time for fam­ily, extra help at work, extra care for friends, and so on.

Y – You are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like you. Value your life and exis­tence, because you’re just going to spend it once.

Z – Zero in on your dreams and go for it!!!
