Everyone will need a pat on the back from time to time. There are days when you get up on the wrong side of the bed and feel nothing will work out today. There will be times when you seem to have deviate from the right track, but have lost all your fighting spirit to steer yourself back.
Passion and the strong desire for success is like a fire on the Savannah plains, started by only one spark but will spread like wild fire and felt strongly by everyone, even those from beyond the seas. But the fire will be doused and the spark dies out. Some fire-douser's include negativities, grass-is-greener-on-the-other-side mentality and the biggest of them all, is the lack of momentum; no action is being taken.
Therefore, you must revive and maintain your motivation in order to keep the fire going. Here are 3 tips to revive your motivation and help you keep the fire going:
1) Having results will solve any problem of no motivation.
Nobody will quit on their progress when things are working out just fine. Just continue doing what generates results and you will never face the problem again. The momentum that you created will keep you fired up and burn every obstacles along the way.
2) Keep yourself constantly updated on your friends and competitors progress.
Some people are suckers when it comes to competing with other people. When you are seeing how other people are constantly improving on their task or getting closer to their goal, and their tasks or goals are similar to yours, it will give you the drive to push yourself to start moving and keep the bum off the ground.
3) The most controversial way is to just QUIT.
Not in the sense of shoving all your previous progress down the drain, but more of taking a short break. Critics of this particular way claim that it hinders your momentum and waste unnecessary time, but I think otherwise. This method has two benefits to it. First up, the time spent on resting means you have lost out on precious time. There is nothing like a loss to trigger your innate emotion and helps to instantaneously gain a boost in momentum. Secondly, disassociating with your work allow you to have a more holistic perspective on your task. Needless to say, it will definitely help in the long run.
So there you have it. Three simple yet effective ways to revive your motivation and keep the fire going in your quest for success. Now, can you see the flame of your success constantly lighting?
