If you are Challenged, Motivation Will Come - ESL Teaching

louies77 · Sat 25-Nov-06, 10:44 PM

Hello forum members,

If you are challenged then motivation will come to you.

If you set goals, you will find it is simpler to motivate yourself. By means of exercising more, maybe you are trying to loose weight. Possibly your ultimate goal is to organize your house. Whatever it is, set goals, and ensure write them down. It may be easier for you to deal with one at a time by seeing your goals written down in a list. In order to reach the end, sometimes big goals will take small steps. As you finish one goal, you can then cross it off your list. Seeing what you have achieved will help you, stay motivated to keep working in the direction of your goal.

Try to get excited about your goals
Break down your jobs into smaller steps
Reward Yourself
Try to Build Support System
Prepare a Timetable
Think about the Future

Louies.

Challenges are hard to face, but you never learn anything unless you are pushed out of your comfort zone!

Have to agree with you. If you just chill and take life easy, then don't expect too much from life either. It's all about how much you are willing to give. Nothing comes just by luck.

I find writing New Years Resolutions helps me focus on what I want to achieve for the upcoming year.

Several people do things because we are motivated to do so. We join organizations because we are motivated by loneliness. A baby cries because he is motivated by hunger. What has motivated you to strive for your latest self-improvement goal?

What is our motivation if weight loss is our self-improvement goal? Are we losing weight because we are teased and wish to be accepted? Are you wishing to lose weight as you wish to wear a yellow polka dot bikini?

What motivated you to start on your journey to a tobacco less existence if your self improvement goal is to stop smoking? Did your wife threaten you? Did your young daughter plead with you to quit? Did your doctor show you a picture of diseased lungs?

Did you know that what motivates us can decide how successful we are at accomplishing our self-improvement goal? Which do you think will motivate you better, something someone else wants you to do, or something that has meaning to you? Well, believe it or not the answer depends on the circumstances.
