MOTIVATION

One of the main reasons why people do not reach their goals is that they lack motivation to start or keep going as soon as resistance becomes fierce. Fortunately, there are many different strategies, which you can use to motivate yourself to work towards achieving goals.

If a person seeks to perform certain activities, we can say that he or she has motivation. For example, if a student is diligent, he or she has motivation to study; an athlete who seeks to achieve high results has a high level of achievement motivation; the desire of the leader to subordinate workers testifies to the presence of a high level of motivation for power. Motivation is a set of factors that determine the activity of a person; they include motives, needs, incentives, and situational factors that determine human behavior.

Motives are relatively stable manifestations, attributes of personality. For example, asserting that a cognitive motive is inherent in a particular person, we mean that in many situations he or she has cognitive motivation. Self-motivation is an individual way of motivation, based on the inner convictions of the person: desires and aspirations, dedication and consistency, determination and stability. An example of successful self-motivation is a situation where a person continues to act to achieve a goal.

Choose Your Target

Nothing will deplete your energy as much as trying to follow a goal that someone else has set for you and which you do not believe in. Think of the difference between the efforts you must take to climb a mountain compared to the efforts you must take to descend a mountain. You climb a mountain when you pursue a goal that someone has set for you. You were not born for this, so you have to force yourself. You come down from the mountain when the goal is yours. You are drawn to it with the hypothesis chapter help of gravity of inspiration and motivation.

Prove Yourself

Self-assertion is the human need to be recognized and appreciated by society. Guided by the desire to assert themselves, people try to prove to society that they are worthwhile personalities. A person seeks to occupy a certain position in society, to obtain social status, or to achieve respect, recognition, and reverence. The motive of self-affirmation is a significant factor in the motivation of human activity, which encourages personal development and intensive work on oneself.

Achieve Success

The desire to achieve success implies the will of a person to get the best results in the activities performed, to master the heights of excellence in an attractive field. The high efficiency of such motivation is based on the conscious choice by an individual of difficult tasks. This motive is a driving factor for success in any sphere of life activity because victory depends on developed abilities, mastered skills, and acquired knowledge. The success of any undertaking is based on a high level of achievement motivation, which determines the dedication, perseverance, and determination of a person to achieve the goal.
