Motivation 101 - The Last Article You Will Ever Need About Motivation

Everyone who is unsuccessful looks for motivation outside of themselves. They believe motivation has to come from someone else or some other thing. This article will dispel all the wrong belief about motivation and why you must develop the only true type of motivation: Self-Motivation!

Have you ever said, "I'm just not motivated..." Guess what you are not alone. I've been there. Being not motivated is the issue that everyone has. I believe there are only two groups of people when it comes to motivation: Those who are and those who are not!

I see this every single year at my gym. During January and part of February the gym is so busy I can hardly take. Every class I sign up for is booked solid. Every free weight bench is taken. Honestly, I can hardly function in this situation, but some how I get by! :

The reality is that soon enough all of these people will fall off. They will quit showing up because deep down they are not truly motivated in make a difference in their fitness lives! The same is true for anything in our lives.

Something that I am not motivated to do is clean my house. I could care less if my house is clean or dirty. I would say that I have no motivation in this area of my life.

I believe it is acceptable because I can pay someone else to do it. While taking control of your finances, health, happiness, and relationships are not areas that can be outsourced.

The best example I know of in self motivation is in my business. I work with different people every day. I am a poor judge at how self motivated someone is to reaching their dreams. It is usually the last person I think that is truly hungry for results. All of a sudden I see this person selling a ton of products out of no where. So I am always impressed.

Here is the point: True motivation comes from within. In my experience of working with thousand of people over the years in sales is self motivation is the only motivation that matters. Self motivated people don't need to be reminded of what they have to do in their lives. They don't have to be asked what are they doing today to improve their lives. They simply do.

Ask yourself, Are you self motivated? This is the only difference I have found between successful people and unsuccessful people. Self motivated people stick to their goals and figure out the solution to getting the results they want no matter what it takes!

Being financially secured will be one of the easiest thing or plan to execute if you are willing because “where there is a will, there is a way”. Most people are the cause of their problems, they don’t think and if you don’t think you stink and those who think don’t think positive. Most people don’t know that what you cannot see you cannot have. Is a high time person known that riches begin with the form of thought?

Make sure that part of all you earn is yours to keep, with that you can be rest assured that your financial plans will be fulfilled. What do I mean by part of all you earn is yours to keep? Don’t you buy drinks, shoes, sandals, caps, belts, wrist watches, suites, cars, etc. And don’t you pay for them? It is not that you should not buy all these things but first pay yourself. As you collect that salary or that profit from your business, pay yourself first. I know you will be wondering by what I mean by paying yourself, it does not matter how big or small your income is, always pay yourself first, that way your portfolio will be enlarging.

To pay yourself first is to always take out 10% from your total income and invest it. Look for an expert in the business you want to invest your money on because that is the only way you can expect return on the capital.

When you have consulted an expert and you started the investment, you must not eat up your profit or your capital. For you to be financially secured, your money needs to work for you and the children and grand children must continue to work for you. If you are able to stick to this plan, then you are going to be financially secured in no time.

You must start paying yourself today, because that way your dreams of becoming financially secured can be accomplished. These businesses will help in securing your finance. But seek the help of experts. Mutual fund, Real estate, stocks, bonds, and royalties from intellectual properties such as Patents, music, scripts or you can also divert some of your funds into offshore banking. Because it yields high return on investments.

By moving some of your funds offshore, it gives you opportunities to some very profitable investments that are not available to you in your country. In this global dispensation, virtually everything is within your reach so take advantage of this globalize world.
