Self Motivation and Life

Keep a positive attitude

There’s is nothing more powerful for self-motivation than the 

right attitude. You can’t choose or control your circumstance, but can choose your attitude towards your circumstances.




How I see this working is while you’re developing these mental steps, and utilizing them regularly, self-motivation will come 

naturally when you need it.

The key, for me, is hitting the final step to Share With 

Others. It can be somewhat addictive and self-motivating when you help others who are having trouble.




    1. Start simple. 

Keep motivators around your work area – things that give you that initial spark to get going.





    2. Keep good company. 

Make more regular encounters with positive and motivated 

people. This could be as simple as IM chats with peers or a 

quick discussion with a friend who likes sharing ideas.

    3. Keep learning. 

Read and try to take in everything you can. The more you 

learn, the more confident you become in starting projects.



    4. Stay Positive. 

See the good in bad. When encountering obstacles, you want to be in the habit of finding what works to get over them.

    5. Stop thinking. 

Just do. If you find motivation for a particular project 

lacking, try getting started on something else. Something 

trivial even, then you’ll develop the momentum to begin the 

more important stuff.

    6. Know yourself. 

Keep notes on when your motivation sucks and when you feel like a superstar. There will be a pattern that, once you are 
aware of, you can work around and develop.

    7. Track your progress. 

Keep a tally or a progress bar for ongoing projects. When you see something growing you will always want to nurture it.

    8. Help others. 

Share your ideas and help friends get motivated. Seeing others  do well will motivate you to do the same. Write about your 

success and get feedback from readers.
