The Need for Motivation Training
In this continuously developing world, it is quite easy to find ourselves devoid of motivation and hopelessly thrown in the clutter. Plans and goals get crushed on a daily basis. Most of us get the experience of losing so much time, friends, families, opportunities faster than you can snap a finger. Indeed, this same emotion can be found to be echoed by the late Gabriel Marcel. As he continues to state in nearly all his writings, letting go of hope in the advent of this noticeably functionalized society is fairly natural today. And I believe that it's a chilling fact to think about. Sadly, a great many of us (at different points of our lives) feel constricted by that same feeling. We're too obsessed with the possibility of failure to actually get ourselves back on track. When you really begin pondering it though, don't you just get that strange lack of motivation, that innate fear, bothering you?
If you find yourself in that situation, then I believe that this post is right for you! I will be listing some of the things you can do to get yourself inspired to take on your own basic motivation training programs and start (or restart) doing something with your lives.This is not to say you shouldn't check out other resources online. (I still believe you should.)
1. Immerse yourself on books regarding these motivation programs
"I'm so not motivated"
It's a line we say nearly every single time when we get the slumps. Luckily, there are millions of resources on motivation which one can search for in your neighborhood library, bookstores, or even online. If on the flipside you find yourself lacking cash and don't feel the noticeable inclination to head on to the library, then take a few seconds to check out the different free Ebooks scattered around the net. I swear, there are just about tons of them. However, if you do have money to spare, then you could also buy some of the more detailed books online.
2. Try out a sport
It's a time-tested fact that sports and exercise can really raise an individual's sense of well-being. It is a very relaxing and renewing experience which could relieve your mind of the stress and other extra distractions to your job. Read up online for a sport that catches your fancy, and go test it out if you don't already have one to begin with! Write down realistic goals that you could target, and set out to own them! This is very relevant because beating your short term goals is a very effective way of beating the slumps, and motivating yourself to do better progressively.
3. Participate in Conversations
Talking with friends and family members is an exquisite way to achieve that extra motivation to beat the slumps. Not only does one get the opportunity to destress by spilling your guts out, you also get that well-deserved pat on the back, or shoulder to cry on. Don't be scared to dive out of your shell and open up to these people. They really will want to make you feel better.
4. Break out
Another excellent yet basic training method for finding motivation is by learning and trying out new things. I mean, right off the bat you should know this to be a fact. The time you spend learning new skills and talents is a hundred percent more well spent than the time used up slacking off and being a coach potato (unless you could make money being a couch potato that is!). There are a million new things to try out. Use the internet to have a clue! And for once, please try not to be a tad bit too uptight.
5. Watch motivating videos
From time to time, some TV stations cover the stories of great and notable people in history. Do not miss out on them! Watching these videos is a great opportunity to learn about these people, to find out what exactly inspired or motivated them to do the great things they did. Hopefully, you will find out that they too experienced slumps just like yours. Watch out though for the exact things they did, or the exact experiences which motivated them in order to conquer the hell out of their slumps.
