Here are three tips you can use right away to motivate yourself - find out how to be motivated in seconds:

1 Talk To Yourself The Way You Talk To Someone You Love

Be honest! Is it true you sometimes insult yourself, curse yourself and say horrible things about your abilities? If you spoke like this regularly to people you care about they would leave and never talk to you again. There is no excuse for treating yourself so badly. Talk to yourself way you would talk to someone you deeply love. Be respectful, patient and understanding. Be slow to anger, quick to praise and grateful for opportunity to listen.

Be on your best behavior when you talk to yourself and you will find that you treat other people better as well. This in turn will cause people to respond more positively to whatever you say. These very people will be more inclined to help you get what you want.

(How to be motivated will seem less of a mystery.)

2 Pump Up The Volume

Very often we go through our day with an internal dialogue buzzing away in background. We mutter to ourselves about what we need to do without feeling particularly inspired to do anything other than what we have to do. This is not an effective strategy for self-motivation!

The physical realm of our being only has one objective: survival. In its rawest form, body must remain intact and it will do so at any risk to its surroundings. Beat up neighbor. Get food. Kick dog. Procreate. Survive at all costs! It is never satisfied with anything. When half-full glass is filled, it wants a bigger glass.

Perhaps Universe realized that it erred up by putting out an organism that would go so far as to kill and destroy just to get food. Imagine what would happen at fast food joints at lunch time! So, to balance strength and instincts of physical, Universe developed creative intellect of soul. The souler being is easily satisfied and is bent on happiness, living, and enjoying. Or, was this blatant survival mode of physical creation intended to behave as such to protectively house its souler component? Which one came first?

I know this sounds like old "chicken and egg", but indeed, it is a valid question to ponder. However, consider variations to ideas of physical and souler interaction and existence. If indeed body came first, then soul is instantiated simply to control instincts of physical. But, if soul came first, then each body is created solely for an individual soul to live, grow, and learn in this physical Universe. What a wonderful combination! A calm, cool, and collected soul to manage an out of control physical host. This means that two are together for a reason, but are separate.
