Introduction

Why is it that some people seem to shine in any sphere in which they choose to exert themselves, and others cannot manage even a glimmer despite obvious talent?

Everything that we do in life requires motivation. Without it, we wouldn’t be able to achieve anything. And we all strive for more motivation, but unfortunately, many people fall short. They get stuck in a trap of focusing on their limitations, fears, and excuses for why they can’t do something. As a result, they make little progress towards their goals.

Your beliefs can either strengthen or weaken your motivation. It all comes down to your mindset. Those that possess a fixed mindset believe that if they fail to achieve their goals, it means that they aren’t good enough.

On the flip side, those who possess a growth mindset view failure as a natural, healthy component of personal growth and development. When you focus on what is good, you will attract good things into your life; when you master your mind, anything is possible. That is how you motivate yourself for success in life.

There are two different ways to view intelligence – thinking that you are already born with a certain level of inability which can’t be changed, and second that abilities can be developed and improved through hard work and toil. Former is called fixed mindset while the latter is referred to as having a growth mindset. Having a growth mindset (the belief that you are in control of your own ability, and can learn and improve) is the key to success.

It’s the small decisions that you make every day that matter most in life. From the moment that you wake up, make sure that you are engaging in actions that are aligned with your higher self.

In the words of Jim Rohn, “Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.”
