Different factors motivate different people. Understanding what drives you to succeed or fail can make all the difference.
Our biggest untapped resource in today's competitive workplace may be our own motivation.
But what if you can't seem to find or hold your motivation long enough to complete a project or even keep up with everyday tasks? You need to discover your motivation—but where should you look?
Here are five easy strategies to try:
1. Recognize your motivation. It's not always about what you're doing or how you're doing it; sometimes it's about why you're doing it. Having a clear idea of what you're working for can help you keep on track.
2.Establish your objective. Defined objectives help you put your ideas into action. It's the crucial link between planning and execution.

3.Make a clear vision for yourself. You must build a clear, compelling vision that you can relate to and identify with if you want to achieve. It won't push you to stay on track if it doesn't speak to your emotions. Create the most expansive vision you can, because you can only achieve what you perceive.
4. Make a strategy. A plan will take your vision and break it down into the steps you'll need to get it done once you've set a target. As we all know, a goal without a strategy is nothing more than a fantasy.

5.Keep an eye on the big picture. Consider the big picture when you're trying to stay motivated. What does this mean in terms of not only yourself, but also others? What role will it play in something significant? What difference will this make? Think bigger if you want to accomplish more.
6.Maintain an optimistic attitude. Positive ideas lead to positive actions, and self-affirming affirmations can assist you in reaching your full potential. Take charge of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Positivity will assist you in making the decisions that lead to success.
7. Take a fresh approach to chores. It's possible that getting started is the issue. A new viewpoint and more energy might come from a different approach.

8. Break goals down into smaller, more achievable chunks. Your ability to break down your goals into shorter-term and smaller single tasks will be critical to your achievement. Maintain a reasonable level of control.
9. Organize yourself. Make sure your workspace is clutter-free so you can arrange your thoughts. You have a better chance of being more effective and productive in a quiet setting.

10. Strike procrastination in the face. Make no excuses or waste time justifying why you haven't started yet. Instead, try to figure out what's causing the delay and get to work right away. The greatest way to start something is to just start.
11. Use deadlines to your advantage. Setting a time restriction for an activity will allow you to gather your resources and materials in order to complete tasks that you might not have completed otherwise.
12. Put an end to multitasking. Don't divide your concentration; instead, devote your entire attention to the task at hand. When you do, your chances of success increase dramatically.
13. Deprive your diversions of food. Make the necessary adjustments to avoid getting distracted by people, tasks, or technology. Create ways that help you begin and finish work without being distracted or interrupted.14. Make an effort to stay in the zone. When you're in the zone, you normally accomplish your finest and most productive job. Ask yourself how you can create the ideal setting for you to do your best job and stick with it until you've figured it out.
14. Decide on success. Make the decision to be successful, then stay with it and see it through. You can improve your odds of succeeding by visualizing yourself effectively completing a task.
15. Have a good time. Find a way to make it fun if you really want to stay motivated. Fun is not an enemy, but rather a powerful incentive.17. Make use of optimism's strength. Your ability to do anything is dependent on your belief in your ability to do it. The foundation of development is optimism.
16. Give yourself a reward. Learn how to motivate yourself to accomplish hated chores and create a reward system for completing them.
17. Make a mental picture of oneself succeeding. Visualization is a powerful tool for focusing, staying motivated, and achieving your objectives. Even the most difficult chores can feel like part of a larger goal if you visualize yourself successfully finishing them.
Remember that motivation comes from inside. Find it, maintain it, and put it to good use.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.

We Become What We Repeatedly Do
How a Habit is developed? Most of a person’s daily activities are their habits. A habit is usually a circle of cue action and reward. A cue is a cause behind a certain behavior, and it switches the brain to automatic mode, so makes a person repeat the routine. The cause is anything like some place or some time of the day, and emotional state, or a social circumstance. The more the action leads to a reward like a good feeling or relief the more it encourages a person to focus on the action but forget the trigger and the reward. For example, if you play video games most of the time you may notice that the trigger could be boredom and the reward could be entertainment, you can then change your action to something else, that will bring the same reward like watching TV, or using social media.
