Self-Motivation is The First Requisite To Great Undertakings!


“Failure is the first step to success”- almost every one of us must have read this line in the primary classes. But why have I written this line here? – Just as a reminder that, reading and learning such basics are of no use if we don’t imply them in our lives. Each one of us has to go through hard times some day or the other. Either missing a good job opportunity or a low score in an important test, failures always stroll around us, no matter where you hide. So, what is the significance of “Success” in our lives? It is always next to you but only if you accept and learn from your failures!

Self motivation is the thing, which drives you straight to the achievement of your goal, to do something better in life. At some point in our lives, we have to do things that we really don’t want to, but we know we have to; we need to self motivate ourselves greatly. The reasons for doing the ostracized work may differ due to various circumstances. But, what matters is that only self motivation turns out to be a successful tool in every state.

Even the most motivated of us, at times feel unmotivated. The conditions seem to be worse when sometimes we get into such a slump that even making positive changes look as if it is too difficult. But, even this is not the end. This ‘slump’ may turn into a stepping stone of your success. The movement you start motivating yourself and begin your way, even the small steps get you started on the road to a positive change.

From my personal experience, the unfavorable condition rises from the activities of past. But that for sure doesn’t mean that you should have any kind of regret for those activities. Many of us share one thing in common; we try to take on too much and try to achieve too many goals at once. The resultant we are already aware of; we often end up feeling overwhelmed. All you have to do is to learn from your mistakes and make your weakness your strength. And this is possible only with self motivation.

Inspiration also plays a significant role and it is an essential part of self motivation. You can get inspired from those who have achieved their goals and also by yourself, with your achievements in past. Self motivation is dependent on your own determination and lasts much longer than being motivated by any other person.   

So, trust your potential and the inspiration inside you, that's all you need to achieve what you want to!
