CONSISTENCY AND SELF
MOTIVATION
 Wanting to lose weight, drink sufficient
water, exercise, complete a book, complete
cleaning the house…….everything requires
MOTIVATION.
 Consistency can’t exist
without motivation.
4
 And these two codes can change your NO’s to YES!
 Your Can’t to Can
 Your Impossible to Possible
 FACT: Google engineers spend 20 percent of their
time working on anything they want. Almost all their
good ideas have come from that 20 percent!

KEEP MOTIVATED
There are several ways to keep yourself
motivated some are as follows:
• Learn and Acquire Knowledge
• Keep the Company of Enthusiastic People
• Stay Positive
• Know Your Strengths and Weaknesses
• Get Help and Help Others
• Do it
7
LEARN AND ACQUIRE
KNOWLEDGE
• Read, study and talk to people – knowledge
and information are key for feeding your mind
and keeping you curious and motivated.
• Prophet Muhammad (PUBH) said
“Seek knowledge even if
you have to go as far as
China."
8
COMPANY
• Try to avoid negative people and seek out
well-motivated people. It is a lot easier to be
motivated if the people around you are
optimistic.
9
KEEP POSITIVE
• Keep a positive attitude, see problems and set-
backs as learning opportunities.

10
KNOW YOURSELF
• Work on ironing out your weaknesses
and building on your strengths and
make your weakness your strength as
your weakness holds you from
achieving many great things.
11
GET HELP AND HELP OTHERS
• Don’t be afraid to ask other for help
and don’t hold back if you can help
them. Seeing other people succeed will
help to motivate you to do the same.
12
DO IT
• Try not to procrastinate, assess the risks
but keep working towards your goals.
13
TIPS
• Sometimes, we need a little boost to help
get us going on a task or project. Say out
loud why you need to do something.
14
PLANS
• Break down your work into smaller chunks. You
may dread hours of work, but if you break your day
down into smaller segments, work can be easier to
deal with.
15
FUN
• Make your activities fun. If you’re dreading
the task or activity, it can be difficult to start.
In this case, find a way to make the task more
exciting.
16
REWARD
• Promise yourself a reward when you get
something done. Even if it’s just a small
accomplishment, pat yourself on the back.
17
BREAK
• Give yourself occasional breaks to avoid burnout.
While it is important to avoid distractions, too much
work can make you less productive. Schedule
occasional breaks throughout your day.
18
I CAN!
• Tell yourself that you can accomplish anything.
When it comes to motivation, you can be your own
worst critic. To push yourself to do what you need
to, give yourself positive affirmations.
