How to Maximise Your Motivation 

 

As a business owner it is vital for motivation to be a key focus in your business. When you are motivated you become more enthusiastic, you are inspired, you experience a free flow of ideas, and you enhance your own performance.

When you are demotivated your energy level wanes, you feel uninspired and bored, and you will probably procrastinate more. 

Are you motivated or demotivated in your business right now? 

Very often small business owners, particularly sole traders, find it difficult to maintain a good level of motivation. This can be due to isolation, lack of communication, and less people interaction.  

Because motivation means different things to different people, it is important that any business owner finds their own method to achieve a positive level of business and personal well-being. 

So why do you allow yourself to become demotivated? 

Consider for one moment what the impact of becoming demotivated can do to your personal health, your well being, your attitude to life, your family and friends, and your business? Disastrous is one word that springs to mind. No doubt you can list other negative words that will instantly demotivate you.  

Stop! 

One of the first ways you can motivate yourself is to turn your language, your self-talk and your inner beliefs around. Change the words you use when you speak to yourself.

Do you feel uninspired, unproductive and trapped in your ‘four walls’? Call a colleague or friend and meet for coffee. Step outside for a walk around your neighbourhood or local park, or simply into your own garden for a breath of fresh air and change of scenery. 

Who has the power to motivate you? 

YOU do! Become a self motivated individual who makes time each day, by taking small steps, toward achieving your goals and your dreams.

It is up to YOU to believe you can make this happen. It is up to you to let motivation become a vital part of your everyday life.

When you invite motivation into your life it will inspire you to: 

- Improve your focus, clarity and direction

- Procrastinate less and achieve more

- Make a commitment to your own personal and professional development

- Recognise and realise what you can do 

Without motivation you, your life and your business will stagnate. No progress will be made. Motivate yourself so you and your business can maintain momentum.

Allow motivation to help you turn your vision, goals and dreams into reality!
