Motivation Tips

How to Keep Yourself Highly Motivated
By:Lindelle Jones

The level of motivation is high as you first decide to incorporate changes to your life, but then as the days pass, the level of motivation begins to fall and once again you are on the brink of sinking into your comfort zone. Ever tried to analyze why it so happens? One reason is that we get surrounded by negative thoughts and quite many near the typical feeling and thoughts that "we can't do it". Bringing the desired changes in your life demands an unyielding commitment and perseverance on your behalf on a day to day basis to keep yourself motivated to accomplish the goals set for self improvement. Here are five simple things that can help you remain motivated all the time.

1. Make it a habit to list down all that you would like to achieve for that particular day. The best way to start and implement this plan is to buy a small pocket diary, and everyday at the start of your day list down the things that you resolve to accomplish during the day. And, at the end of the day have a look at the list that you made and tick mark all that you could achieve during the day. You might have left a couple of things undone, but look to all the things that you could accomplish. Develop positive attitude and once again resolve to improve upon your performance the next day. Yes, it is difficult to bring changes in one's life but remaining motivated and committed is the key to success.

2. Avoid being in the company of people with negativity. It's not uncommon for our colleagues to bring negative changes to our thought process. Let's acknowledge the fact that most of gossip at office is negative. Most seem to be unhappy with the kind of money they make with the company and are usually critical of the policies of the management. Such negativity at work place can surely disturb your motivation level. The best way to get out of negative company at office is to excuse yourself on some pretext or the other. There is no doubt whatsoever that being in negative company at office or at home certainly lowers your motivation. Be on the look out for people with positive attitude towards work and life in general. Get friendly with these people, and you'll remain better motivated.

3. Try looking for forums on the Internet that keep you motivated. You must realize that you are not the lone person who is striving to bring changes in his life. You will be surprised to learn of the millions who are trying the same. Forums offer you an opportunity to interact with such people. You may get some very helpful tips by being in the company of people with a similar mindset.

4. Read and learn to listen: One is never old enough not to learn something new. There are many affordable aids to help you remain motivated. Try some e-books or listen to Podcasts. Keep trying different avenues and you'll surely hit the right one to keep yourself motivated.

5. Remain focused on your goals: Remaining focused and not losing track of what changes you want to bring to your life is of utmost importance. Once you have decided to bring change to your life, it helps to have a prominent display of your goals on a display board so that you are reminded of it many times and stay motivated.
