MOTIVATION

MOTIVATION

When we here stories of how some men became successful despite the odds not being in their favour, how they made it through some tough times, and difficult moments, we sometimes get all fired up and bustling to get into the action to get our dreams rolling, but in a short time, when the enthusiasm raised by these stories are gone, we go back into our shells.

We cannot only be motivated to action by what we see or hear; we must be motivated by our dreams, visions, and aspirations; we must be driven from the inside, not from the outside. Until we have a deep rooted reason to want to succeed, we will not go forward after every failure; we will not have a good enough reason to rise whenever we fall; we will quit easily when faced with obstacles.

Thomas Edison has a long list of invention. Although popularly known for his invention of the light bulb, he was largely self educated, and failed at so many attempts on a lot of his experiments. Because he was confident of what he could produce, and his ability to achieve whatever he sets out to do, he never looked back until he had what he wanted.

Your dreams are valid; your ideas are unique; you can be all you want to be, but first you have to believe in yourself, you have to believe you can, and you will. Let your source of MOTIVATION be that which is ahead of you, that which you dream of, not what you hear or see. The effects of words and sight may be temporary, but the effect of your mind will never erode away until acted upon, be motivated.
