Even the most successful individuals can hit a bump and find themselves off track at some point in their lives. You can become confused at the loss of momentum and uncertain as to how to get back on track. All that is needed is something that can keep you motivated. I have found that one or more of the following suggestions will assist you in regaining your forward momentum and you will soon be back on track! Appreciate failure - Many people find failure a bit too daunting. Failing on something – whether it’s a simple goal or a grand task – has a paralyzing effect upon them. For successful people, failure is a teacher. It was difficult and demoralizing while they were at it. But in retrospect, there is always something that can be gained from failing. Don’t get used to failing, though. Bounce back every time you fail and refrain from doing the same things that had caused you to fail before. Build a string of success out of the many failures you've had. Always finish what you have started - Whether it’s a goal, a project, a book, a movie, a song, or a sentence…always finish what you have started. Never quit on anything, no matter how insignificant that thing is. Quitting is a bad habit that supports procrastination and by extension, the extinguishment of motivation. Give yourself some incentives - Accomplishments should always be rewarded. Reward could be anything from a 30-minute break from work or a one-week vacation in a tropical island. No matter how small or big your accomplishments are, always try to give yourself some reward. Having something to work for or to look forward to will always ignite the drive that is often dormant inside you. Write down your ideas - No matter how stupid or nonsensical your ideas may seem, they are still ideas and they can inspire you to think further. When lacking in motivation, the simple act of scribbling can trigger a part in your brain to be creative, driven, and imaginative. Be attuned with your emotions - Don’t be overwhelmed by negative emotions such as the feeling of hopelessness, defeat or struggle. Try to channel your emotions to something more positive such as getting ahead with your work or finishing the task at hand. Define your motivation - What motivates you? A better life? An accomplished task? A sense of achievement? People have different definitions for motivation. Define yours. Then, begin working for it. Kick that avoidance attitude - A small percentage of people are allergic to doing something productive. They prefer to lie idle on the couch while killing their time over a movie marathon. That kind of existence is miserable. It lacks direction and definitely lacks that something that can make life a bit more exciting. Not that they have nothing better to do, but because they lack the drive not to avoid the things they need and must do. If you feel that you are leaning towards the avoidance attitude, immediately move yourself out of that rut. Connect with people - Living in isolation? It is becoming more common nowadays to lose connection with the rest of the world because work is shifting from office setting to home setting. Even while social networking sites are doing their best to make you feel connected, nothing still beats the good old fashioned face-to-face interaction. So go out, talk to your pals, connect with people and be inspired.
