Motivation – Part 2
Why is it hard to stay motivated?
A person can’t stay motivated forever. Having the desire to accomplish something is not enough. Many factors can demotivate a person to give up on their goals and dreams. Some of these factors are below
1. Fear of struggle and failure
People get motivated by listening to someone or reading something about the greatness of they accomplished. They start working on it but when they feel that that little struggle they usually give up.
Fear of struggle and failure de-motivates the people to stop working on their dreams.
Have faith and keep going, it might take a while for you to reach your goal. Push through the struggle and the hard work. It won’t be easy but it will be worth it.
2. Wrong goals or No goals
A person who sets wrong goals for himself gets de-motivated early. To stay motivated, you have to set right and achievable goals.
3. Hanging out with the wrong people
When people start sitting in the company of some stressful de-motivated people they start lacking motivation. Negative people always will try and bring you down. It is the major factor that causes people to not stay motivated for longer.
Things that affect your motivation level.
Cognitive function – self talk either tells you to do it or not do it. Most of the time it comes up with excuses for why you shouldn’t. Be aware of the tricks your mind plays and use your willpower to override it.
Emotion – emotions control our behavior, if you recognize the emotion as just that then you can act accordingly
