Where does motivation come from?
Staying permanently motivated to chase the objectives
you set in your life isn't simple for anybody.
Yet some individuals seem to be better achievers than
others.
Is there any strategy behind their success?

1/8 Inspiration
Inspiration is the key to a good performance
One of the greatest difficulties in reaching a goal, whether it is
financial profit, a training goal or changing a habit, is finding the
right mental attitude and inspiration to remain faithful to it
Inspiration is the key and the driving force behind all big
achievements and the source of the necessary energy and
persistence
Many athletes and managers set their goals so high that it takes
years to accomplish them

1/8 Inspiration
Even if their achievement isn't ensured they work hard for it
every day
People who don`t surrender when experiencing a setback and
who keep inspired like this for a long time have a much greater
chance to reach their goals and celebrate a big success
What can you learn from these performers and which strategy
can help you to find inspiration and reach a big goal?

2/8 Feelings
Not feeling able to move forward?
One approaches to escape from a negative state of mind is
starting to appreciate yourself as a human and person
Concentrate on the positive things in your life
Make a mental rundown of your qualities, past triumphs, and
current preferences
We have a tendency to underestimate our qualities and over-
emphasise our disappointments

2/8 Feelings
By feeling thankful, you'll acknowledge how talented and
promising you are at this very moment in your life
This will increase your self-confidence and center your brain on
positive things
Your brain will help you in this initial phase of inspiration to
imagine your goal and move into the right direction. Your mind is
a very powerful tool and can change your reality as well as its
perception

3/8 Meaning
Recognize what is meaningful to you and set long-term goals
Your long-term objectives may take years to finish. Could you
envision investing the majority of that time and vitality into
something you weren't energetic about?
It is very important to adjust your long-term objectives with your
qualities and your preferences

3/8 Meaning
Write down binding, long haul objectives for the crucial areas of
your life, for example vocation, family, finances and training
Listen to yourself and feel inside
Do you feel energized when you consider them? Do you feel
inspired enough to work hard to achieve these objectives in the
months or years to come?

3/8 Meaning
Also, do you discover the sort of work included with them
fascinating?
If not, reconsider these objectives and decide upon something
that truly matters to you
It takes a lot of energy to reach long-term goals, so make sure
that you are honest with yourself before you start

4/8 Goals
Make your goals visible for yourself
When you've chosen your objectives, take care that you get
reminded of them frequently
Write them, for example, into a notebook which you have with
you or on a memo which you keep at the refrigerator
Be creative and think about how you can get better and move
closer to your goal. Maintain your core interest in your goals

5/8 Self-Control
Reinforce your self-control
In their study, "Masters of the long haul: Pursuing long-term work
goals" (2012), the authors Thomas Bateman and Bruce Barry
stated that the ability to control your feelings is most vital to
accomplish long haul objectives

5/8 Self-Control
Self-control helps you going forward when you are not "in the
state of mind" to do the necessary or when you think you need
to quit
Self-control pushes you to continue onward, disregarding the
chances
Be generous to yourself and trust in your capacity to achieve
your objectives. Assume responsibility for your success

6/8 Prioritization
Set aside a few minutes to prioritize your tasks
To accomplish your long-term objectives you need to prioritize
your tasks. In this way you understand what to do next and
which tasks to assign or even quit doing
When you break down your tasks according to their importance,
you can save time for tasks that lead you to your goal

6/8 Prioritization
Next, figure out how to deal with the workload which is coming
up
This helps you to incorporate a routine and get more effective
Broaden your skills and know-how target-oriented to be able to
better cope with your tasks
You may need to overcome negative behavior patterns, such as
viewing excessively long TV shows or surfing the Web

7/8 Focus
Stay focussed in the long run
What is the ability to pay attention on a specific thing or objective
for a certain time
Most people will find it more easy to concentrate on short-term
objectives, because results show up faster
Seeing results keeps your inspiration level high. It's considerably
harder to concentrate on objectives that may take months or
years to achieve because you make progress at a lower pace

7/8 Focus
Patience and persistance therefore are additional key skills to
achieve big goals
How often have you begun to follow a long-term objective, just to
discover a couple of weeks later that you've lost your focus on it
and that you have begun taking a shot at another objective?
If you want to be an achiever, stay persistent
If you have new ideas, take notes and sort them. Maybe you can
follow ideas which don`t suit your current target setting at a later
time. Make sure to stay on track

8/8 Acknowledgement
Acknowledge your progress
Keep track of little and big achievements along your way and
acknowledge them
This is important for a long-lasting motivation
Research has shown that its simpler to stay inspired if you see
your objectives as a chance to gain some new useful knowledge

8/8 Acknowledgement
This means you should also consider the insights during your
journey as an accomplishment
Create an individual reward system with things which you have
fun with
For smaller achievements you reward yourself with a visit in the
cinema or spa
For greater breakthroughs, reward yourself with something like a
dinner in a good restaurant or a weekend holiday
