*** Motivation is an essential life skill and you can

motivated, if you are of at least average intelligence you
can learn how to be motivated. No matter how unmotivated
you have been up to now.

The secret to being motivated is to discover the motivation
blueprint that is right for you.

Everything I learned about motivation is the result of a
time consuming and expensive process of trial and error.

Not to mention an expensive education in peak performance
training. It took me 19 years to master how to motivate
myself and others.

Are there any shortcuts to discovering how to get motivated
and stay motivated in a short time? Yes.

Highly Motivated People - What Makes the Difference?

Tuesday, August 17th, 2004

On a warm spring afternoon, fifteen years ago, two young
men graduated from the same college. They were similar in
many ways…

Like most ambitious, hard working students they had also
enjoyed time off to play sport and to have fun with their
friends. And they were both very excited about the bright
future that lay ahead.

Fifteen years later they met.

They were still alike in many ways. Both had a good family
life, a comfortable home and they both had a little gray
hair!

But there was a difference.

One of the men is stuck in his career and he hates his dead
end job. He feels frustrated and unappreciated. And each
Monday morning he drags himself out of bed to struggle
through another tiring week.

The other man is in charge of his own business and works as
many or as few hours as he pleases each day. He is excited
about his work and is richly rewarded for his success. He
is living the dream.

What made the difference?

Have you ever wondered how two people of similar ability
and intelligence can produce such different results in
their careers?

One person struggles day after day and claws his way to the
top of his department - while another seems to have a never
ending drive to do more and to achieve more. He rises to
the top of the company in record time.

The difference is in knowing how to get motivated and more
importantly how to stay motivated. There is
an easy way and a hard way.

The hard way means getting stressed about deadlines,
constantly beating yourself up and never really achieving
anything of value without a lot of worry and tension. It
can also mean feeling exhausted and overwhelmed much of the
time.

On the other hand, the easy way means you feel a sense of
purpose and drive to achieve more for your own satisfaction
and enjoyment. You get more done in less time and you feel
energized by your goals. And even better, people respect
and value you in a whole new way.

Which do you prefer - the easy way or the hard way?

Knowledge is Power.

Right now I can turn on or turn off my own motivation at
will without needing other people to coax me into action.

And it is easy when you know how.

Once I found an approach that worked all I did was follow
the step-by-step instructions and my world changed as
quickly as I changed.

And this can happen for you even faster than you think…

When you become a master of self-motivation you will wonder
why you waited so long to get your hands on the knowledge
that was here for you all along.

Think about it for a moment. Why do you want to be more
motivated?

What are the most important reasons why you want to improve
this aspect of your life?

What have you missed out on by neglecting this crucial
skill?

The time to change is now - until you do, another day,
another week and another month will slip by and you will be
no further forward in your life. If you are waiting for the
perfect time you will wait forever. It is time to try a new
and better way.

Lack of Motivation - How You Developed Bad Habits

Wednesday, August 11th, 2004

Today I want to tell you why you absolutely have to
take charge of self-motivation.

And what a lack of motivation means..

As you read this article you will start to understand why a
lack of motivation is costing you even more than you
realize.

As you read the story below notice how much you have in
common with me…

Growing up I never really had much trouble getting things
done. I was told what to do by my parents or by my teachers
and I did what was expected of me because it was the easiest
choice for me.

Getting punished never appealed to me very much.

Then as I got older and especially when I joined the
workforce I could get away with doing less and with leaving
things until the deadline approached.

In fact in one company where I worked it made no sense
finishing work before the deadlines because management kept
moving the goal posts.

And very often I worked with people who refused to stretch
themselves. This culture of doing as little as you can and
appearing to be productive slowly dragged me down.

Over the years as a result of experiences like these I
developed bad habits.

One of those habits was a lack of motivation habit.

I can see now how a few bad choices in how I approached work
affected all aspects of my life.

The same may be true for you…

What we did over the years was create bad habits that need
to be given up and replaced with a new way of behaving.

Do you realize what these bad habits have cost you in your
life?

1. You missed the sense of accomplishment and the
satisfaction that comes with succeeding on a big scale.

2. You lost the respect of your peers and you are excluded
from the winners circle.

3. You no longer feel in control of your destiny and in
fact you are a victim of circumstance.

4. You earn far less than people of lesser intelligence and
ability.

5. You worry about the future because you fear you may not
be able to deal with things.

A lack of motivation is a bad habit you can and must change.

Now is the time to take charge of this situation. I can tell
you from my own experience that nothing will change until
you decide to change.

And nothing will improve until you improve it…

You owe it to yourself and to the people who care about you
to seize the day and make your life something to be proud
of.

The satisfaction that comes from living life on your own
terms is a wonderful gift you deserve to enjoy. And you
will only have this once you know how to motivate yourself
to create the life you dream of.

My income jumped, my social life improved dramatically and
new opportunities for having even more of what I wanted all
came about for me. But only after I learned the secrets of
self-motivation and how to kill a lack of motivation.

The world did not change. Other people did not change. I
changed.

Only When YOU change will your world change for the better.

Before I go…

Think of those people who look down on your lack of progress
and take you for granted. Think of that sense you have of
not been in control.

All of these feelings of dissatisfaction are not going to
disappear– in fact they will dominate your life as the
years pass you by.

These issues are not going to go away all by themselves.

I tried the wait and see approach - it does not work!

Thankfully there is a solution, a proven way of taking
charge of your life and developing self-motivation.

*** Motivation is an essential life skill and you can
discover how to be motivated and stay motivated. ***

Although some lucky people seem to be born highly
motivated, if you are of at least average intelligence you
can learn how to be motivated.

No matter how unmotivated you have been up to now.

The secret to being motivated is to discover the motivation
blueprint that is right for you.

Imagine no longer having a lack of motivation!

Motivation Techniques - That First Step to Massive Success

Wednesday, August 4th, 2004

Want to hear about a simple & effective motivation technique?

It´ll help you get motivated and stay motivated.

Do you want to know the key to beating procrastination and
achieving much more?

Let me tell you how I discovered the secret to achieving
massive success…

I had some work to do yesterday and I kept putting it off.

I thought to my self - I´ll wait until later when I feel
more alert and in the right frame of mind to do it just
right

Do you ever do this?

Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. If I wait for the
perfect moment I will be waiting a very long time.

With that in mind I just got started. I took the pressure
off and stopped insisting that I create a perfect piece of
work.

The endless pursuit of perfection and the craving for total
and complete success at everything you do is a trap.

A dangerous trap. And the opposite of a motivation technique.

Why?

Because it will stop you from getting started. And
beginning is sometimes all you need to do to ensure success.

When you get the ball rolling, the gathering momentum will
keep you going. You will stay motivated and drop procrastination.

Listen to this for a motivation technique that works….

Last week - I read an interview with a world-class marathon
runner who has run some tough races including ones where
he ran a marathon a day each day for a week or more at a
time.

When asked how he could take on such enormous physical and
mental challenges without feeling overwhelmed he gave a
simple answer.

He said he never thinks about it in terms of running a 26
mile race instead he focuses on taking one step.

And then another, and another…

Take one step at a time.

Complete it and then take on one more step. Do this
and you can achieve some spectacular results.

So you see.

Even a simple motivation technique can work wonders!

Self Motivation - Why To Dump Will Power And Get Motivated The Easy Way

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2004

How can you become a self motivation expert? Does will power work?

Will power alone will never work over the long term. It is
the hardest way possible to get yourself to do anything.

The answer is to discover the secrets of self motivation.

Why?

Because it is like trying to open a tin can with your teeth
when there is a can opener in your pocket.

Instead you need to tap into the limitless power of your
mind. When you do you can break bad habits, create
beneficial new ones and put yourself back on track easily,
quickly and with very little effort.

You see…

Making changes to enhance the quality of your life
does not need to be slow or difficult. Unfortunately most
people are still struggling because they continue to rely on
ineffective approaches like will power.

Forget about will power. Become a self motivation expert!

Instead write down one small action you have been putting
off and answer the following questions and really put some
thought into the answers:

1 What am I missing out on of importance by not doing this?

2 What will I gain most by doing this?

3 Why is it important to me to get this done?

4 How is not doing this inconsistent with who I really am?

And then…

Pretend You Have Already Completed the Task:

Get a pen and paper and take 5 minutes to describe how you
feel now that you have already finished the task you have
been postponing. i.e. as if you have already succeeded.

e.g. I have already cleaned the yard and I feel fantastic.
My family and friends are really impressed and I feel so
proud of myself and so delighted that it is finally done.

The yard looks immaculate, so tidy I have even impressed
myself. I feel so powerful, energetic and motivated. I feel
on top of the world. etc. etc.

Do this quickly and write with as much emotion as you can
express. Spend at least 5 minutes on it.

You will be surprised at how well this simple process works.

You may find that you feel a boost in motivation that gets
even better each time you use this process. Do it once a day
for best results.

Become your own self motivation expert.
