How To Be Motivated To Create The Life Of Your Dreams

WARNING -- THIS ARTICLE IS FOR OPEN MINDED READERS ONLY

When it comes to motivating yourself to be a better person,
to do better at work or to create a happier family life you
need to understand the importance of taking control of your
self-talk. You really need to know how to motivate yourself
through thick and thin.

Do you ever pay attention to the thoughts inside your mind?
And more importantly do you ever notice the way in which
you talk to yourself?

Here are three tips you can use right away to motivate
yourself: find out how to be motivated in seconds:

1 Talk To Yourself The Way You Talk To Someone You Love

Be honest!

Is it true you sometimes insult yourself, curse yourself
and say horrible things about your abilities? If you spoke
like this regularly to the people you care about they would
leave and never talk to you again.

There is no excuse for treating yourself so badly. Talk to
yourself the way you would talk to someone you deeply love.
Be respectful, patient and understanding. Be slow to anger,
quick to praise and grateful for the opportunity to listen.

Be on your best behavior when you talk to yourself and you
will find that you treat other people better as well. This
in turn will cause people to respond more positively to
whatever you say. These very people will be more inclined
to help you get what you want.

2 Pump Up The Volume

Very often we go through our day with an internal dialogue
buzzing away in the background. We mutter to ourselves
about what we need to do without feeling particularly
inspired to do anything other than what we have to do. This
is not an effective strategy for self-motivation!

What you need to do instead is to turn up the volume,
inject some passion into your words and talk to yourself
with enthusiasm. You would not have much luck motivating
someone else to take action without putting some energy
into your words. You need to do the same to motivate
yourself. You must know how to be motivated at a moments
notice!

The next time you want to motivate yourself to do something
- talk to yourself the same way you would if someone was
standing before you waiting to be inspired. Speak loudly
with passion and excitement either aloud or to yourself
inside your head. The more energy you put into it the
easier it will be to light the fire inside you that sparks
you into action.

3 Know How To Feel Good When You Are Having A Tough Day

No matter how focused, positive and hard working you are
there will still be days when nothing seems to go your way.
It is on days like this that you must take charge of your
brain and take control of your self talk.

You need a back catalogue of memories you can replay to
make yourself feel good. Music does it for me. I have so
many songs I love to hear that I just pick one out and
listen to it in my mind. In a moment I can listen to sounds
that make me feel fantastic simply by choosing to.

For best results imagine you have a volume control with
bass and treble. Make the music sound rich, loud and
resonant. This is the secret to knowing how to be motivated
in a way that works for you.

A friend of mine has such a great memory that he will
listen to an entire CD in his mind. How about that for a
quick and easy way to feel good whenever you are having a
tough day?

One final way to use this tip...

Replay happy memories of people telling you how much they
value and appreciate you. Hear them saying what a
difference you are making and soak up those wonderful
feelings of appreciation.

Your motivation will soar and getting more done each day
will just get easier and easier with eager people lining up
to help you.

It really is your choice as to how you run your brain.
Choose to feel great and your communication with yourself
and the outside world will become remarkable.

And do bear in mind the alternative is bleak ...

2005 is almost over. If you let things slide like you did
last year we will be having the same conversation in 12
months time.

How much will that hurt?

All you need to do is unlock your personal motivation style
- the step by step formula that works best for you and your
lifestyle.

Do that and 2006 will be the year you took control of your
life and felt secure and at peace like never before.

my step by step motivation system and you will enjoy a
renewed vitality for life...
