So I wanted give some motivation today. My motivation comes in the form of rational thinking and tough love. So I have a few questions...
When you woke up this morning how did you feel?
What did you expect from your day?
What is the situation you need motivation out of?
What do you need motivation to do?
Why are you not motivated?
If you have answered one or more of these questions, I would like to suggest that you change your outlook. Don't look for motivation, instead focus on the need. Not sure what I mean...well take these examples. Think about how you feel versus how you need to feel. What you expect versus what you need to expect. Where you are versus where you need to be, etc. Sometimes we allow ourselves to get caught up in the lack of motivation versus what we need. You will find that focusing on the need will channel your motivation. It will eliminate the questions. Some people think of what they need to do and think they need motivation when they need to simply understand the NEED for what they are doing. That need serves as the purpose/reason. The need serves as the motivating factor.

Motivation by definition is the act or an instance of motivating, or providing with a reason to act in a certain way (2) the state or condition of being motivated (3) something that motivates; inducement; incentive (dictionary.com).
With that being said we should stop allowing people and things to motivate things that we may not need. Only you know what you need. You know where you want to be and what your expectations are. Stop being lazy and codependent and think about you needs. I don't understand how so many people want to put off their current state on someone else. Never taking the fault for why they are in the positions their in. It is understandable that we do not have control over all circumstances, but we do have the capability to make choices. Our choices contribute to the circumstances as well. So instead of sulking or being lazy trying to place blame, take responsibility for your choices. If you aren't where you want to be you need to make new decisions. What do you need to do to get to where you want to be? Allow that to be your motivation. Let me know what happens!
One Love,
