Motivation and Success Strategies

The Cornerstones of Personal Development

Personal development is being discussed to the length of exhaustion in terms of what are its fundamentals, the strategies, the rules by which one is to follow this ever growing philosophy.

This discussion has left room for self-proclaimed gurus to enter the field and start reciting one rule after another. But the truth is, as you will find out after delving deeper into this way of living, that personal development is quite easy to approach and is, and should be, very flexible and customizable.

In other words, you are the one who should dictate both the “rules” and the entire journey for that matter.

Organic products seem to be the in thing right now. Take a stroll through any of your local markets or grocery stores and you will see an army of products that include the healthiest ingredients and of course, they are organically grown.

Creating Consistent Motivation From Within

Motivation

I love motivation, and I think it’s a very powerful force. I do have one quarrel though with the way most people try to get and sustain their motivation: they rely immensely on external motivators.

When they want motivation, people often turn to reading a motivational book, listening to a motivational speech or seeing a motivational movie. This gets their heart pumping and they instantly feel the drive to act.

Which, in and of itself is great. The problem is that this kind of motivation is simply not sustainable. It dissipates very quickly, often in just a few minutes, and you’re back to your default mental state.

A Surprising Way To Remember What You Learn

Motivation

Do you remember that awesome personal development book you read last year? You know, the one about success and improvement?

Perhaps not.

Myself, I used to always have trouble remembering what those key lessons where that I learned from all those books I read. It was usually something along the lines of… “Do A in situation B and you will get C” But I can’t walk around with hundreds, or even thousands, of scripts in my mind just waiting to execute them. So unfortunately I forgot them quite quickly. Meaning that I had wasted a lot of time reading great material that I never got the chance to use in real life.

10 Things that Positively Influence Your Memory

Motivation

Due to various reasons we use less than 10% of the potential of our brain, the most important of which is the ability to remember all sorts of information, i.e. our memory.

Like a computer, everyone has their limits for information storage. Some people quickly and easily remember, and even after many years can reproduce different details, while others immediately forget everything.

Of course, you want to keep in your brain as much information and data as possible. After all it’s such a shame to forget important details, events, people, phone numbers… Unfortunately, there haven’t been any magic pills created that would allow avoiding drowsiness or could increase the efficiency of your memory. But today there are many techniques to improve your memory. Let’s look at some effective ones.

Success Lesson: The Keys to Having-It-All By Krista Magidson

Motivation

Is the pursuit to “having it all” no better than chasing after a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Is it a sadistic and diabolical story perpetuated by the self-help industry? Or does the desire for living the ultimate life rise up from a kind of primordial yearning that’s embedded deep in your DNA; egging you on because you know that while it is elusive, it is also possible?

The biggest scam in human history is the belief that you could have-it-all if you only had enough time, money, talent, good looks, and education.

Success Lesson: Seize the opportunity and control your career

Motivation

Life offers each of us a fabulous array of opportunity in both our careers and personal experiences. To realize our dreams we need only flex our imaginations and plan for success.

And yet, be warned, “If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. Guess what they have planned for you? Not much.” (Quote: Jim Rohn).

So, lets’ face it. To succeed, we must plan and compete.

How Motivated Are You

Motivation

Without a doubt, motivation is the number one emotional factor needed to achieve your goals.

Without motivation you are more than likely going to run out of steam while climbing the mountain of success.

Many of my coaching students often complain to me that they are unhappy with their current situation in life, yet they have little desire or motivation to change them either.

Sarah needs motivation

Sarah called me one day asking how she could get out of her parents’ house and live on her own. Sarah explained to me that she felt confined to her bedroom most of the time, except when she worked.

Success Lesson: If You Want To Learn To Cook Go Meet A Chef Not A Food Critic

Motivation

Unemployed most of his life, my father never once took a mortgage. Most of the time he was in rent arrears. That did not, however, stop him from starting a business as a mortgage broker. It failed a few months later, but not before several people had unnecessarily refinanced their homes upon his advice. I was sixteen at the time and shocked at how these people parted with their hard-earned cash without ever checking into the background of the advisor.

Success Lesson: Elite Human Beings vs. Apathetic Drones

Motivation

Human beings. We are a highly elevated animal species, or at least that’s how we would like to think of ourselves. We have our own civilized jungle or habitat called “society”.

The only difference between our habitat and the wild animal one is that we have rules and laws to protect us from each other. Also, another difference between us and the animal kingdom, is that we have rules and laws to protect the weak ones.

You might wonder, who are “The weak ones”? The weak are the unmotivated ones, the lazy ones, the ones who expect others to take care of them.
