Putting Motivation Into Yourself And Others

Are you looking for a bit more confidence, or a little more self-esteem?

How about being your very own motivator? By taking charge and putting yourself back in control?

You may easily do this, just by learning that all true motivation, the real kind which lasts, the only kind you can count on, is internal motivation…

Imagine having a personal coach, teacher or trainer which always stayed with you, season after season and every day in between. Imagine not needing to wait for someone else to get you charged up and feeling your best.

Imagine being able to rely on yourself to always automatically and unconsciously energize your body and mind, focus your attention, and keep you in tune, on top form, and always going for it!

Think about never again needing someone else to prod, push or persuade you into achieving your own best efforts?

Your very own internal coach is ready and waiting to do this for you…

It is your best friend, your closest ally, your strongest believer. It will show you the best in yourself and help you achieve it. It will give you direction, put purpose in your stride, strengthen your will, and give you unquestioned belief.

It is loyal to you always. It is the coach which never goes home. It is the ultimate motivator. And will never fail you!

Taking Control Of Your Attitudes

Examine your attitudes... look at them... assess them...

Take control of your beliefs about yourself, take a mental inventory check of your attitudes (good and bad) and decide for yourself which of those attitudes work for you and which do not.

The ones you do not want to keep, simply throw out. Get rid of them and only keep the ones you like.

Change the ones you want to change. Take charge of your attitudes. Put yourself back in control. The least that could happen is that you would get a little more of your real self back again.

Discover the jewels and gems which are part of your own mind. Seek out and find the rich reserve “attitudes” within you which have been waiting to step out and live again…

Start your journey right way. Little changes in your attitudes can make big changes in your life. Your attitudes affect all of the important things around you.

They affect how you feel about yourself. They affect your work, your friends, and your loved ones.

When your attitudes get better, so does life. If you would like to start making a change or two. Then fixing an attitude and making life a little better can be a great place for you to start…

Program Your Self-Esteem And What You Believe

Our self esteem is said to be the result of what we are programmed to believe…

Conditioning, from the day we were born, has created, reinforced, and almost set in stone for us - most of what we believe about ourselves, about others, and also what we believe about most of what goes on around us.

Whether this programming was right or wrong, true or false… the result of it is what we believe. It all starts with our programming!

Our programming sets up our beliefs, and the chain reaction then begins. In short, what we believe determines our attitudes, affects our feelings, directs our behavior, and also determines our success or failure:

Programming creates beliefs … Beliefs create attitudes … Attitudes create feelings … Feelings determine actions … Actions create results!

This is how our mind works.

If you want to manage yourself in a better way, and change your results, you can do so at any time you choose.

Simply start with the first step. Change your programming…

The Planning of Your Day

We may feel that by listing all of the things which we have to do, or wish to do each day, will only make us feel “overwhelmed” and “tied down”.

We often hinder our own time management skills by simply not setting daily goals on paper - we may even find excuses why planning our daily activities each morning will not help our day roll along any more effectively!

The truth is…

None of us enjoy the thought of facing an overwhelming list of things-to-do. However, the solution is not to avoid planning your day, but rather to make your plans meaningful and also effective.

“This way your plans will give you more freedom instead of making you feel more tied down”.

Remember always try to be flexible with your plan, and do not feel that you must spend every morning planning your day and visualizing success…

Start out with only one or two days per week if you like, and then each week simply increase the number of days in which you plan. View your daily plan as the ticket to your success.

It is not a foe, but rather a friend. Know that planning is a tool which helps keep you in control, and control equals freedom!

Unleash Your Subconscious Mind Power

If you want to learn the true art of mind power then it is of the greatest importance you understand 2 functions of your mind, and also how they interact with each other…

You only possess one mind, but it has 2 totally different functions - and the names generally used to distinguish these 2 different functions are as follows.

1, The Conscious Mind
2, The Subconscious Mind

There are many other terms used. But the 2 listed above, are the ones used most to represent the 2 main functions of your mind.

To help us better understand the conscious and subconscious mind, they may be compared to a tree and its roots…

• You’re conscious mind being the tree, which helps you with daily situations like, decision-making, rational thinking, or just simply figuring out what to do and how best to do it.

When we think of ‘me’ we think of our conscious mind, the mind of which we are fully aware. This part of the mind makes decisions for us and directs our activities; it also analyzes, criticises and even commands us.

• You’re subconscious mind being the roots; it deals mostly with the repetitions of learned behaviour. This can be very helpful for you, as it enables you to deal with situations much more easily the next time they arise.

Whatever we see, hear, smell, taste, touch or feel passes through the conscious mind and reaches the subconscious mind where it is stored.

Once you have learned how best to deal with the situation you find it much easier the next time around… this is because you are using information which is already stored.

For instance, once you have learned to ride a bike you don’t have to consciously think about it anymore. This is because the stored information will come to you automatically the next time you get on your bike to ride it.

Just as if you were to learn where each letter on your keyboard is - you can now type without looking because you have formed a mental picture in your subconscious mind, of what the keyboard actually looks like.

The above are only two instances (of how the subconscious mind stores up relations of learned behaviour) and we are sure you would be able to find many more examples of this in your everyday life!

Information from the conscious mind gets past into the subconscious mind, and there is a very strong link between the two. It is said that everything you have ever seen, heard and experienced is perceived by your conscious mind, and then stored away into your subconscious mind as a memory.

Not only is this memory stored as the incident itself, but also any feelings which went with it at the time are also stored.

Your subconscious mind does not only store your memories and feelings. It is the maker of all the great ideas you have ever had, and is also the seat of your intuition and creativeness…

Your subconscious also keeps you going without you even being aware of it. It takes care of your bodily functions – your heart beat, and automatically runs such activities as, movement, language, visual perception and a whole host of other processes of your mind and body for you.

It also scans your mind for conflict and distress; assesses your environment for danger and threats, and relays and interprets perceptions, sensations, and feeling… last but not least it is also the storehouse of all your experience and decisions – everything which makes you the person you are.
