Reward Yourself
Reward yourself. One of the most effective motivators is the reward. In business organizations, employees are well motivated to work hard for good compensation, especially if given a bonus. If they are not well compensated, they lose interest in their job and look for better ones. But if they get enough or more than enough, they give more dedication to their work. Sometimes, even if you don’t like the job much, or you feel bored with it, you become energized if you can get a good reward, a bonus maybe or an extra day off.
If you can’t get an extra reward from your job, and it really is a stressful week ahead of you, plan out a good way to reward yourself. This is to console yourself of the busy week you will be facing; to motivate yourself to just work on even if you feel like procrastinating because you’ll have a nice day off after that. You can set a schedule for vacation at the end of the week, or go to the spa, watch movie, eat and relax. well, there are a lot of things that you could reward yourself. Maybe buy the thing you wanted to buy most.
Another advantage of it is that you’ll be more conditioned to work after receiving the reward because you will then feel better. If you think that it isn’t enough, then plan it the next weekend or after the next project. Treating yourself really motivates you to work hard.
