How to motivate yourself?

Hello, how are you?

I wanted to talk how can you or me stay motivated and reach the things we want. A lot of people see other people ‘success’ and usually get jealous or thinks they want the same, totally neglecting the fact, how that person reached for things.

  1. In order to actually understand what you want, you need to stop watching what other people do (or don’t) and think in terms of what makes you happy. We can all see people doing some creative work or businesses. But is it actually what would make us happy and motivated? You know if you want something really bad you need to dedicate yourself to do it and push yourself. If you start doing something and then you feel no motivation, here is your sign, that it might be not your thing. Which is absolutely fine. We see nowadays many people reaching for highs (which is very questionable in terms of what is high or not), but we all don’t need to be the ones (the best ones). Of course, if you want to be a famous musician, what you got to do, is push yourself to make it. But decide, if it is actually what you want.
  2. As soon as you get an idea – yes, this is what I want to pursue or reach. Please, do it. Start researching it, check what steps you need to do, make goal lists and work on it. Many people want something but then, they do nothing. They expect that good things or good life just comes naturally. No, it doesn’t. You want to have a good life – you’ll have to work on that. It might be not nice and very hard, but life is always hard. If you can get good things after suffering, it is worth it.
  3. When things get hard people tend to give up. I did want to give up a lot of times too. Lost my motivation, seriously, sometimes I just didn’t see a point. In times like this, please push negative thoughts away, relax and do something that can make you more positive. AKA go for a walk, hike, buy more expensive food or go somewhere more special to you. Just award yourself. Things take time, when we do not get immediate award, we feel unmotivated. So, motivate yourself and do some awarding. I like to buy sushi. 😀 I know it sounds so simple, but it makes me happy and motivated. I award myself by buying sushi. You might buy some clothing or home decor. As long as it motivates you.
  4. Finally, when you start getting what you wanted or things getting better. DO NOT SHARE ABOUT IT. Especially on social media. Yes, we all want to show our happiness, because we are simply proud of ourselves. But other people might not understand, get jealous. Think that you did not deserve it and etc. Of course, some things do come out to daylight, like, maybe a promotion at work or some official awards. I get that you can’t hide everything. Just make sure, you feel strong and good about it. Don’t let anyone’s bad energy to destroy your happiness.

Good reminder, people need to understand that they have all the power to reach things they want. If they want to do something more – they can. All comes to their own motivation. If people choose to rather be jealous instead of actually doing something with their life, I think that is perfect time to say goodbye to those people and forget about them.

Life is too short, seriously way to short, to now care about what other people think about you. Motivate yourself and you’ll see you’ll start getting things.

If people gonna tell me, that they tried and it did not work, I completely understand you. Sometimes not everything works out. But try something different. Try making adjustments, maybe try few years later. Weird thing, but I guess there is something like fate or destiny. Because in the end, everything works out by some kind of higher plan.

Btw, being successful doesn’t mean only fame. You can be successful in your relationship, at your work, with friends maybe being successful parent and take responsibility for growing a good human-being. It might simple as making someone happy. So again. Motivate yourself in the things you want!

Also, don’t assume that people who have ‘better’ things are actually happier and don’t assume that they got better things easy.

Me personally, I still know I want to live better. Some people might think I have awesome life, but they do not see my life daily or what nonsense I need to go through. People only see you being happy and it probably doesn’t make them realize how many days you were crying, or giving up or simply in a very bad shape. So, if you see someone sharing them being happy, please be mindful and be happy for them. It is not about that they deserved something or they didn’t. We all live on earth which is awful to live already. We should be more supportive of each other and not make it even worse.
