What motivates you?

business-motivation.gifThis article has been guest blogged by Tamal Anwar who is a motivator and a networker from The blog about success

Before I ask this question, lets find out what is motivation? Motivations are not more than some nice words which are interesting to hear. You have read articles on books, sites, blogs(even some on my blog), bought cd’s and mp3’s about motivations, paid money to buy tickets to see an expert motivator to give you a motivational speech, paid visits to personal counselor and coaches just to get some motivations.

The real fact is, motivational speeches are great to enjoy, but harder to apply. I think motivations are just the things which pushes us. Pushes us to do something or take an action. Everything is there next to you, you just have to make your decision and work to get it. This is why motivation is needed. How many times you have seen/ heard a story of success and get inspired to do it? It is motivation and it’s the thing which pushes our life wheel to roll. What motivates you is not important, how you get it, is more important.

You don’t need a coach
After reading this, you motivators may become angry with me, I apologize to you if I misbehave with you all.

You don’t need a coach/ motivator because you are your own motivator. You know about yourself and you can take your own decision. There is only one person in the world who can change you and that is you. Your coach will tell you to think positive, work with a plan, think different but it’s you who will make it possible. Be your own boss, and take control of your life and you will no longer need any motivations.

Learn from your surroundings
It is a great way to get motivations. I always see things and meet people and get motivations. I get motivations by listening to stories, watching movies and get inspired from others. Nature is your teacher. Take a break and go outside of your office and see things. Even a very much common thing could inspire you and lead you to a new journey of success.

Look for new things
Its great to learn new things and look for them. Who knows, it could bring a new concept. Meet new people, go to new places, try new things and you will be motivated with the ideas. If you want to have true success, then you got to have new innovations. Be creative, innovative and you will never need motivations again. Be a motivator and let others be one too.

  • What really motivates you?
  • Why you have to be your own boss?
  • Did I missed any point’s?

From THE WAHM Tara- My personal motivation has always been the idea I need to work for myself. As a mother of 4 I want to raise my kids and not have someone else do it. That has kept me highly motivated to work my tail off to make good money from home. I admit, I am also money driven, when my company offers sales I run with it. That always motivates me to promote promote and promote.

Motivation Monday

A new week is here again, so it is time to roll out the carpet and start thinking about the weekly to-do list. Last week was a bum week for me, i failed miserably at completing my goals! My kids were sick and I did not feel 100% me. I got very backed up on emails and failed to finish my articles I needed to get done. Not to mention, I failed to return phone calls I needed too.

I did manage to change the blog theme but that was really it. The week did not help me reach my goals for March at all.

So, this week really needs to be productive for me. One of my favorite Goal Setting Quotes…

You must have long term goals to keep you from being frustrated by short term failures.Charles C. Noble

My Week To-Do List:
1. Complete 3 new articles and get them submitted.
2. Create 1 new Squidoo Lens. (i am doing well with squidoo)
3. Follow Up on all email contacts from last week.
4. Introduce 5 new people to AmeriPlan. ( I have to do to make my overall monthly goal)
5. Get caught up on all of our laundry! YUGH, I dread this one!
6. Get my house nice and clean! MY MIL is coming down for Easter.
7. Complete next weeks 5 Days Of Direct Sales. I have allot of research to finish!

So, what are your goals for the week? Small or big?
