When you decide to become truly self motivational you realise that attaining success is not a destination it is something within you. It is the self motivational attitude that you take to every facet of your life. Not just the major things but the every day simple things to. Success is not something you can reach out and grab onto, nail down then parade as some kind of trophy which some less than self motivational individuals have come to view it. Successful people don’t just attain success they live it on an ongoing basis. Many descriptions of success have it as a journey. However I am convinced it is more than a journey and is in actual fact a life style and indeed a self motivational life style choice.
Success always leaves clues, here is a list of a number of the success clues you should look out for:
1 Being focused on worthy goals
2 Self motivational enough to work towards them (not just looking for short cuts)
3 Perseverance is the self motivational watchword
4 Weighing up the need for big step change with incremental improvement
5 Striving for high standards but not weighed down in seeking perfection
6 Visualising the big picture while also focusing on the detail
7 Showing commitment to delivering on promises
8 Fundamentally aware that your goal is still there after the buffeting storms around you subside
9 Not surrendering control to others by getting uncontrollably angry
10 Holding the gains in success not sliding back into old behaviours
11 Assisting others, particularly less fortunate than yourself, set and achieve their goals
12 Establish alliances with those who will commit to helping you with your goals
13 Understanding that everyone has within them the resources to achieve their goals
14 Seeing abuse and hate from others as a gift you choose to refuse to accept from them
15 Do not acknowledge failure and see it really as a learning experience
16 Respect others and their definition of success even when you can’t agree with them
17 Living in the now and valuing every moment of every day
18 Being clear that success is a self motivational choice you make not one that is made for you
19 Seeing money as merely a scorecard to the wealth you create in the world not success itself
20 Seeing health as the great generator for a self motivational and successful life style
To be self motivational and live a success lifestyle you need to be a detective looking for clues. My list above is not meant to be comprehensive but merely a starting point to begin your quest. To get some further clues have a look at this self motivational booklist I compiled.
