How I Motivate Myself

Ever been to a feeling of that cloud 9 when you and yourself are just so one? Internally motivating one’s self and the external motivators are just flowing to and through you?

Ohhh! That feeling! But with some situations that are out of our control, sometimes we didn’t notice we’re gradually out of track. Until one day we realized, “What’s happening to me? This is not what I wanted to do today. I want to be productive. Where did that spirit of CHEERY ME go? ”.

What I like about life is that it is a journey. It is a process. It can never be reached. It’s like a book that have chapters. Somewhere, you start reading. Somewhat, it ends. But, even when you end a book, there can be a sequel too. We all go through death and no one knows exactly if we can write another book there. Life for me is a series of re-births. I decline to be eaten by societal standards about what life should be when you reach certain age.

Going back to now, when was the last time you spoke great things to yourself? When was the last time you motivated yourself?

Here’s mine…

Dear Yours Truly,

You should make a pledge to yourself that you would treat your time with respect.
Don’t get carried away with the potential of achieving your goals.
Always keep in mind that just because you want something doesn’t mean that it deserves your time and effort. Do your best, but keep in mind that there are other things that are truly important to your spirit.
Allow yourself to be patient while avoiding procrastination at all costs.
Be positive, but not naive, about the future, and you will succeed.
You’ll be able to tell when the timing is appropriate.
You are under no responsibility to coerce them into doing so.

Love,

Self

Get that special dress today, and dress up like because it is a special day!
