How to stay motivated..?

Yes, that is a Big question, How to stay motivated?

We all need motivation, and we need to stay motivated, to be able to reach our goals.
It doesn't matter is it our work, hobby, self development or what so ever... we need to be, and stay, focused and motivated.

It is really easy to feel motivated for example after watching some good self-help movie, reading a inspiring book, participating a lifting seminar, etc. But so many times we loose our motivation after few weeks or days, or even after few hours..!

Keeping our focuse and staying motivated, those are key things while reaching towards our goals.
Of course we need to do some work to keep those up. And we need to do it ourselves, no-one will/can do it for us.
Like Bob Proctor says: "it is like we are fired up after seminars and such, and like any fire, we need to keep adding fuel to it, other ways it will just burn away!"

He also lists three simple, but highly effective, ways to stay motivated:
  1. Carry a Goal Card
  2. Create a support system
  3. Counter the flood

  • Goal Card is shortly said a peace of paper where you write your goal, you will curry it with you and you will take a look at it as many times per day as you possibly can. That way you have your goal all the time sharply in your mind, so you stay motivated and focused.
  • Create a support system: you can have a good friend, collegue, fellow from some seminar or even your spouse who can be your support team, your small mastermind. Tell that person your goals so that you have someone to discus with about your challenges, share your triumphs and brakethrougs and you can remind each other about your goals and dreams when ever going gets tough
  • Counter the flood. When your fired up feeling starts going down, your old believes and habits and "I can't do it" thoughts will start to rise like a flood. You need to counter that flood by reading lifting newsletters, blogs, read a classical books (he mentions like: Man Thinketh, The Science of Getting Rich, Think and Grow Rich), make a recervation to your next seminar or class and mark it to your callender, etc..
You can read Proctors own words about these from his site:

I learned earlier about Goal Cards from those books mentioned above and started to use them then right away. Easy, fun and effective!
Later on my path I have also put those other two in to action with good results. Those three will work best while using them together.

And of course:
It doesn't help us much if we just know about these, we need to put them in to action by using them reqularily!!

Have a fantastic day doing your Goal Cards, getting your support system and doing some flood countering readings!
