Push yourself harder

Are you feeling unmotivated because you feel you’ve not done your best, or have cheated yourself? There is no doubt that doing less than you know you can do will cause all kinds of guilt feelings manifesting themselves in certain ways. When people feel they have not done their best they feel they have cheated themselves— and they start to rationalize why they didn't perform as they know they were capable of. This leads to a shift in personal responsibility to blaming external circumstances and opens the door wider for negative thinking to take control of the individual.

To solve this problem, always extend yourself to full capacity. Most of us have the habit of coddling and pampering ourselves rather than pushing ourselves to be better and do better. You can trick your mind to believe that you can do more in a short time. For example, if you think that you can take an hour to finish a task or goal, make it your mission to finish it in 30 minutes. If you think you are capable of a certain amount of output, push yourself harder to increase that output by at least half. When you decide to accomplish what you want effectively in the shortest amount of time possible, your motivation will be boosted to rise up to the challenge.


Stay Motivated and Positive,

Reach Your Goals

Image
Each New Year brings the chance to start over. For some people they set goals and make New Year resolutions, but less than half of people who make New Year Resolutions actually  fulfill  them. If their goals are really important things they want to do, have, achieve or become, why is it that when they decide what they want (in every area of their lives) they don't get it?  Everyone can come up with a list of reasons why they didn't achieve what they wanted, but we have to learn to think of solutions to our problems, not finding someone or something to blame. This year, stop the cycle of resolving to make change, but then not following through. In this post, I'll give you some tips to help you avoid making the mistakes that prevent many people from achieving their goals (and keep their resolutions) in every area of life. 1. Your Goals MUST Be Yours Decide what you want to accomplish (in every area of life). Don't be concerned about what other...

Develop a Strong Desire to Succeed

God has given all living creatures the instinct to survive but He has given us another quality which sets us apart. Mankind has an in-built desire to succeed, something which is as natural to us as breathing. Humans are by nature goal-striving and we are not happy unless we are functioning in this way. There is only one success; to be able to spend your life in your own way. You already possess an unlimited force within you to do this, what is required is the programming of the ultimate computer— your mind. You are the programmer and with the right techniques you can instruct it to select what you really want. We become what we think. Each of us becomes exactly what we program our minds to be. A prosperous person programs prosperous thinking into his or her mind and a miserable person instructs his or her mind to make them unhappy, mediocre, boring, and "average". Your mind is like soil in a garden— it does not care what you plant— it will always nourish it.  Tak...
