How To Stay Motivated Everyday- In Just 4 Ways

M’ for March; and ‘M’ for Motivation. Let’s make March the “month of motivation.” Collect your motivation mantras to survive those worst days. We all need that “kick of motivation,” everyday to jump start our day. A little sprinkle of motivation at the beginning of your usual everyday tasks, or before trying out anything new; can make you more productive, happy and grateful each day!

Things that you have had been doing on a daily basis: for days, weeks, and months together; can make you feel bored and unmotivated; so it is important to stay focused and feel inspired to carry on your routine works- happily.

Motivation is that “magic” that can help you push yourself ahead of those rough paths in life, career, and choices. It is important to have that “can-do” energy all-the-time; whether while doing your chores, or meeting deadlines. Your energy can drive your enthusiasm to reach for possibilities and success; at work or at “play!”

I want to share those four elements of motivation, that you must have in your platter to be more energetic and productive in life. Do you know what drives someone to continue and succeed in their endeavor? It’s motivation! The willingness to make their attempts “go-big,” or be seen, and heard. Doesn’t matter how hard my days seem to be; I never forget to feel that “punch of motivation” every single day! It keeps me alive and do my tasks sincerely and mindfully.

So here they are:

1. Always look forward to something.
The key element for staying motivated in your job or in life depends upon looking forward to something amazing in future. This idea expands your perspective of life. Suddenly you feel more inspired, and see possibilities. This brings you “happy feelings” to learn about the event, even before it actually takes place. Feeling good about something that’s going to happen, can automatically make you feel good, very good indeed! Always keep your calendar blocked (for yourself) by scheduling some fun things for the future weeks. If there is nothing to look forward to, try to create something.

2. Celebrate “small wins” even before you move to anything else.
Acknowledging your “small achievements” is a must-thing to keep moving in life! Don’t forget to give yourself a pat on the back for the job well-done. Doesn’t matter if your wins are big or small, they definitely need to be recognized- by you. Don’t hesitate to share with your friends and family too! I’m sure there will be many, who will make you feel equally special about your hard work and success. But, important is; you must know what you just did; and feel good about completing the task successfully.
3. Don’t push yourself “too much” for anything in the world.
Be itanything, don’t try to overdo! You are likely to lose interest, and feel exhausted. Take a break when you feel it’s too much. Go for a short vacation, or just out of office, or find ways to do less work in the kitchen, or limit your online accessibility. Whatever it is, just shut it down for a short period of time, relax, rejuvenate, and spend some quality time refreshing your mind, body and soul. Mute your “thinking process,” and planning, and just breathe in the moment. Nothing is as important than you functioning “normally.”

4. Tame your expectations.

Limit your thoughts about not being sufficient, or having sufficient. Every-time I start to (or forced to) think that; “I’m not good enough, and somebody else is better than me, I try and remind myself of the position I am at now; than I was in my past. I remind myself of all the problems and challenges I faced and came this far.” This helps me to refocus and continue being better and doing better.

If you want to make you life more interesting and better; keep your motivation levels in check! Find out what motivates you. Create small achievement goals for yourself, and work slowly towards them- yes, without any big expectations, of course! Constantly motivate yourself and feed your energy with some positive, inspiring reads and acts- to keep your spirit alive and kicking.
