Tips For You To Remain And Get Motivated Based On Your Aims

How to become (and remain) motivated

SET GOALS
When you set a goal, remember you've made a great decision that will help you to act in a way that will help you achieve what you want. Goals always give you a direction to focus on, one that’s measurable and has an endpoint. This can help you to stay motivated.

CHOOSE GOALS THAT  INTEREST YOU
 You will be much more motivated if you’re working towards something that you genuinely want or wish to do or achieve, rather than what other people actually want for you.
Find things that interest you within goals that don’t. Sometimes some people set goals or tasks for us that we don’t find interesting or wish to do. So by these try and find something within that task that does  motivate you. Take for instance ‘I hate maths, but it’s going to help me become a builder, which I want more than anything.’

MAKE YOUR GOAL PUBLIC
 If you tell someone or write down your goal, you’ve directly made a promise to keep your word.

PLOT YOUR PROGRESS
When you’re working towards something, it can be really motivating if you can see evidence that you’re making progress or you are making a speakable approach. Draw or create a visual or schematic representation of how you’re coming closer to achieving the goal you’ve set yourself.

BREAK UP YOUR GOAL
 Start with easier tasks and make your way up to bigger challenges. Breaking up a task in your mind into achievable assignment helps build confidence.

USE REWARDS
Promise yourself some sort of reward each time you complete a step/task.

DON'T  DO IT  ALONE
 Join a class, or find a teacher or mentor or someone you can share the experience with. Other people’s encouragement to keep going can be a big boost to your motivation, particularly when you’re doing it tough. People around you by one way or the other affect your motivations


If you’re really finding it hard

If you’ve tried but failed to get motivated, then it might help to talk it through with someone you trust. Sometimes it can be hard to achieve things on your own, so having a good support network may help when you’ve taken on a big challenge.

You could also try talking to a counsellor, who can help you to work out which motivating strategies will work best for you.
