Where Does Your Motivation Come From?
Motivation is something that comes from within.
It is an excitement or desire to do something that keeps you going.
When you are self motivated, you do not need outside help to inspire you to do what you need and want to do.
There are many things that can motivate people. Sometimes you are motivated by other people, such as your boss at work. You are motivated to do your job because if you don't, you will lose it.
Some people are motivated by money. They achieve their goals because when they do, they will be earning the money they want or need to enjoy life.
Motivation can help you to set the goals necessary to achieve what you want in life. It gets you going and keeps you going until you have reached your goals.
When you reach your goals, it gives you a feeling of accomplishment and makes you happy. You feel empowered and good about yourself.
You may be motivated by other people in your life. Friends and family members can inspire you to work toward your goals.
However, when you are self motivated, you accomplish things because it's what you want, not what someone else wants. It is something that you do for yourself.
When you are motivated from within, you become stronger and able to try new things. You will feel better about your accomplishments because you did it for yourself.
Each time you reach a goal, you will find it easier to feel motivated to keep reaching higher. You will be successful and happy.
