Personal Development Motivation

By + in All Articles, Productivity

Personal development motivation is a necessary quality that you need to develop if you want to improve yourself. Most people fail to make any changes in their lives because they lose motivation or don’t have it to start with.

It does not matter if you want to develop a new skill, change your behaviour or make any other changes. All these goals require a strong motivation behind them.

 

How to get personal development motivation

Define your personal development goals. It’s very important to know exactly what area of your life you need to improve. If you fail to properly define what you are reaching for you will not achieve much because you will not be motivated by some hazy aims. It’s also important that your goals would be appealing to you because the more you want the final outcome, the more motivated you will become to achieve your goals.

Review your goals regularly. It is not enough just to set your goals and never look at them. This will not motivate you because your goals will be out of your sight and out of your mind. To develop personal development motivation you have to constantly look at your goals so that your subconscious mind would start making plans of how to achieve them.

Visualise your goals as already achieved. If you don’t believe that you can achieve your goals, you will not. To start believing that you can achieve your desires you should visualise them. When you regularly visualise your goals as already achieved, you will start believing that they can be achieved. This will motivate you and encourage you to take action.

Don’t give in to the negative inner voice. If you sometimes get a discouraging negative voice which says that you will not achieve your goals, simply ignore it. Know that it’s not the voice of truth, it’s just a fear-based voice of your ego. It doesn’t mean anything and you should never give up because of a negative self-talk in your head.

 

How to keep your personal development motivation high

Don’t lose sight of your goals. The more often you review your goals, the more personal development motivation you will get. When you keep your goals in front of you, you clearly know where your destination is and every action you take leads you there. Only when you lose sight of your goals you start taking action that leads away from your desires.

Take constant action. To keep the momentum going you absolutely must take action consistently. Taking action will produce results and that will motivate you to keep going. If you stop taking action, your progress will stop. Therefore don’t make this mistake and keep going no matter how many obstacles you meet along the way or how many failures you experience.

Focus on one goal at a time. If you find it hard to achieve goals you should focus on one goal at a time. When you progress and achieve a couple of goals this way, you will then be able to set more goals at the same time. If you do that, your personal development motivation will grow because you will see more and more positive results.

Remove all the distractions. To get to your self improvement goals faster, you should limit the activities that fail to get you closer to your goal (like watching TV or surfing the internet). Also, when you recognise that some activity distracts you from your goals or makes you lose your personal development motivation, you should stop it at once. If you are really serious about progressing in life, you should mainly do things that get you closer to your goals and keep away from the distractions that provide no value in your life.

Set priorities. If you know that there is some hard work that you must do to achieve your goal, don’t put it off. You should say to yourself that by accomplishing it you will tremendously shorten the time of your goal achievement. This will motivate you to complete whatever hard work there is. So you should always do the things that lead to your goals first and do other activities only if you have enough time.

Block negative influences. If someone or something makes you less motivated to achieve your personal development goals, you should eliminate such negative influence at once. Maybe you have friends who don’t believe in you or you constantly look at your past and see no real accomplishments. Things as such can easily make you lose your motivation so you cannot afford to focus on them. You should understand that the more you concentrate on things that demotivate you, the quicker you will lose your motivation. So if you have friends who don’t believe in you, don’t be with them. If you have not achieved anything significant before, stop looking at your past.

Only you know what you are capable of, don’t let anyone get you down. Completely ignore everyone that has something negative to say about your goals and desires. You can only achieve something significant when you quit looking at negative things and keep your whole focus on your goals. Goals motivate you and encourage you to keep going whereas negative environment and negative friends discourage you.

Conclusion

Personal development motivation arises in you when you define your goals, often review them and keep taking action to achieve them. It’s also important to eliminate all the things that can demotivate you and not to give into the negative self talk. If you follow the advice of this article, your motivation will be high and that will allow you to quickly achieve even the most demanding personal development goals.

A Cold & Nippy Day; A Perfect Day for Goal Se...

Pooh Blustery Day for Goal Setting Tips & Personal Development PlanningIt was a cold and blustery day ….

So would say Pooh on this day I trekked out before the sun even considered showing its bright smile on my little side of the world. The only thing keeping me warm was my heated car and piping White Belgium macadamia nut coffee – double dose, thank you! The wind whistled as I drove from my small rented house in the suburbs to downtown Atlanta for, what I hoped to be a day that would forever change my mind, my financial state, and my dreams to reality.

Parking was, well … like parking is in any busy city, downtown … as fun as walking through a patch of thorny vines to get to the rose peeking out behind them – hopefully worth the pain!

When I finally got inside of Philips Arena, the smell of hours old coffee, Krispy Kreme donuts, and wind on everyone’s cheeks filled the air. The buzz of excitement was like bees busily making honey … Pooh would have been misleadingly excited about it!

My First Time ….

was this day. First time attending an actual Personal Development event, in person. Everyone was smiling, even as early as it was … everyone was EXCITED to be there … a warmth grew quickly inside me and I knew it wasn’t my coffee … that had vanished before I finally found a parking spot and trekked to my seat in this arena packed with thousands of eager, open minds!

It is an electrifying experience to be surrounded by people who thirst for the same quench as you. A smile happens inside that you didn’t know could happen. A feeling that where you are is exactly the right place lights a fire that can set you floating like the fire in a hot air balloon . . . it’s quite peaceful and creates a hunger to insatiably devour more of what drives you!

 I Got to See Him and YOU didn’t … Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah!

WHO?? Who else, but Zig Ziglar!

zig-ziglar-Achieve It

Who is Zig Ziglar?

My goal is to go to at least 3 a year – I will document my experiences & hope you will document yours with me!

How Tony Rush Bounced Back From Struggle, and Crea...

Originally posted by davidwood | on November 12, 2012

Tony Rush has one of the most powerful stories that I’ve heard in EmpowerNetwork.  The funny thing is, I didn’t even know about this, until after he spoke at our first event, in Atlanta Georgia.  You never know where someone is at…

Tony’s Hidden Story of Struggle and Victory…

After you watch this video, you’ll find yourself feeling empowered, like I was, to take just a little bit more action – let me know your thoughts:

When I saw that video, I had to just lean back, and smile :) Thanks to Chris Record and Peter Sorenson for sharing the video with me.

Of course, not everyone is going to make as much money, as quickly as Tony Rush did, you can click here now for our averages earnings disclosure.

Tony Rush is just a powerful story of what anyone can do – people just like you, who decide to take massive action, listen to a better way… and get all in.
The Hidden Formula Tony Discovered 6 Months Ago…

Here’s the thing that you’ll discover about Tony:

Tony is humble as he is smart.

Some people who aren’t as smart as Tony don’t just hear a message, and take immediate action, like you do.

Tony simply saw this video, and decided to get started.

When you do that now, you’re going to discover something… that can’t be simply shared in a blog post – what you’ll discover is the secret to creating the life that you want, from scratch, by being a part of something…
…Simply Revolutionary.

So here’s what you need to do next… Realize, that 12 months ago – Tony Rush was just like you. He didn’t have a huge list, he started from zero.

Maybe what you should do – is listen to what we say… and make a decision.

When you do that, and you take massive action – you’ll find that a whole world of possibility opens up to you, to help you get the results that you want.

So go ahead, and do watch the video, and leave your thoughts in the comments below.

-David Wood
The Guru Slayer

P.S.  There was actually a single video that led to Tony’s break through.  One day, he jumped on a live stream that I did, where I broke down the exact formula to creating $1,000 daily.  Although I can’t guarantee that you’ll get the same results, you can watch the same video, that I’m presenting – live.  Click here to register now.

Simply complete the following steps, and you’ll be on the same path Tony was on, only a few months ago:

1.  Click here, and register for the webinar.

2.  Make sure that you write the time you’re attending the broadcast on your schedule.

3.  Take notes, take action, and apply what you learn.

Deepak Chopra & Lawrence Tam Teach Abundance ...

Deepak Chopra & Lawrence Tam Teach Abundance & How to Work at Home?

Yep. You read that right. I’m right now learning from both the world renown & respected Deepak Chopra about abundance – lots of it – and how to create it, now. I’m also learning from the very well known – albeit locally so – Lawrence Tam about the same – to the tune of $103,000+ in 15 days & doing it while I work at home.

The Abundance, Wealth Mindset = Success to Work At Home

The first thing to creating abundance in anything, is the right mindset. This includes both the positive and the negative. Focus on how things suck. You will get an abundance of that. WHY? Because you create actions that perpetuate this … in many cases, you actually don’t take action at all because you feel things suck, why bother. In the case of positive mindsets, it’s through meditation and constantly being in this mindset. Right now I in a Free 21-day Abundance Mediatation program with the Chopra Center. (join me for free here and invite your friends too!(Chopra Center 21-Day Free Abundance Meditation) It starts on November 5, 2012 so be sure to sign up right away – it’s free!!

For me, it’s to get out of working away from my family, commuting 2 1/2 to 3 hours per DAY, and exchanging time for money (if I don’t work, I don’t earn). I want to earn while I work at home – while I sleep, while I play, while I am at the beach, while I am enjoying time with friends and family, and earn massive income – from home!!

It’s also so critical to have the right mindset to overcome the negative ones that overcome our daily lives – you know – the coworker who always complains, the boss who’s yelling at the same guy over and over, the neighbor who always looks sour, your BFF who has something down happening everyday, maybe even your spouse who sees the glass as half empty and never getting filled. These people are toxic and the only way to get past their negative mindsets is to create a solid positive mindset in you that you focus and work on daily.

 Lawrence Tam – Work at Home Success Story PHENOM!

Okay, earning $100,000 + in 15 days is incredible rare – in most circles. But here is the weird thing, the way he is doing it (and now I am) is NOT. The percentage of success stories earning 5 and 6 figures per month, after 3-11 months, with zero prior success, is becoming a norm …. How did Lawrence Tam do it? In his own words, it was simply blogging (like the one you are reading now) on a daily basis then marketing each blog on a daily basis (free traffic, paid traffic, whatever your budget allows!!). CONSISTENT RIGHT ACTION is the KEY to Lawrence Tam’s work at home success secret.

Lawrence began blogging on this Empower Network platform not even a year ago. His blog sat doing nothing for months as he worked as a engineer. Then in April of 2012 he was laid off – if you’re like 30% of the U.S. population, you probably know how that feels. He dabbled on his blog – didn’t follow all 8 Core Committments and didn’t watch all the success videos or listen to the audios. No, he let his money maker just sit there. Then his wife had their 3rd child in the summer of 2012. If you know anything about newborns and how they turn both parents into zombies, then you know that, again, Lawrence wasn’t doing much on his Empower Network blog.  Finally, in the fall of 2012 he thought, hmm … you know, I better do something with this. That’s when he starts churning our blogs, marketing, and, yep, finally earning money – in a few short months we get to October 15th. On that day he had already earned over $103,000 for the month.

You see. Lawrence had the right mindset. It didn’t matter that he got laid off (twice in the past few years) or that he had a newborn creating sleepless nights, or a wife who didn’t get why he was on the computer so much or that he didn’t have a PhD like has his family … no. He took what he had, cultivated it, and turned it into more than he had. He took the tools available to him and mined for gold and diamonds in his own backyard.

Become Your Own Work at Home Success Story

I don’t know about you, but I intend on becoming a work at home success story just like Lawrence Tam! I’ve gone through the hardships (failed real estate investments, lay offs, negative people in my life who sabotage everything they touch) but none of it matters. They are all obstacles that will make my story that much greater! And, you don’t have to have hardships to have a great story! (better if you don’t because you don’t have them bogging your butt down!) But you do have to get started!

Become your own great success story. Start with signing up for the Free 21-day Abundance Meditation with the Chopra Center (all done in the comfort of your chosen location). Then sign up for a turn key blogging system – the same one Lawrence uses & with the same 8 Core Commitments he 1st ignored. To become successful, do what the successful do!

To Your Success!!
