Motivation Through Positive Thoughts

Self motivation, believe in yourself and thinking positive can lead you to success. If we choose to think positive and those positive thoughts become our dominant thoughts, we can attract more positive influences and positive circumstances and experience. There is nothing good or bad. William Shakespeare once said, “There is nothing whether good or bad, but our attitude makes it so.”

Negative thoughts can be turned to positive thought, as what was said by A W Tozer, “Our attitude towards things is likely to be more important than the things themselves.” William James also said, “People can alter their lives by altering attitudes of mind.”

Our inner thoughts and attitude determines our success. Norman Vincent Peale once said, “Any fact facing us if not as important as our attitudes toward it, for that determines or success or failure.”

Positive thoughts can be acquired as said by Paul J. Meyer, “Attitudes are nothing more than habits of thoughts….and habits can be acquired.”

Think positive for no one can help you except yourselves. G Baily once said, “It is one of the beautiful compensations of life that no man can sincerely try to help another, without helping himself.”

“Change your thoughts and you change your world.” Norman Vincent Peale.

Motivation Is Inside Us

What is motivation? Even after our needs are fulfilled, are we still being motivated? Is motivation something that every person can develop?

Motivation is inside us. If a person is truly motivated to achieve success, it is because of the desire that comes from his inner self, a desire that was inbuilt and remain there even when rewards or recognition are removed. Stephen R. Covey once said, “Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly.”

Motivation is an attitude. An attitude is defined as the way we think, feel and act. The way we think determines the way we feel which determines the way we act. “Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill.” Charles Swindoll

Attitude has two types: positive and negative. There is no neutral attitude. You can change your life simply by changing your attitude. John Maxwell once said, “Your problem is not your problem. Your attitude – how you handle your problem is your problem.”

We may not be able to change the world around us, but we can change our attitude. Rob Conkln once said, “Our attitude is not determined by circumstances but by how we respond to circumstances.” Robert Schuller also said, “The good news is that the bad news can be turned into good news when you change your attitude.”

“At best I.Q. contributes 20% to the factors that determines life’s success which leaves 80% to other forces.” Emotional Intelligence. William Shakespeare said, “There is nothing whether good or bad, but your attitude make it so.”

Motivate Yourself To Succeed

“Success" is subjective. It means different things to different people. Some equate success to wealth and material possessions, others is the attainment of good health, peace of mind or a happy family.

Remember success is not a function of academic achievement, intelligence, heredity or luck because winners are not born; they are made with proper planning and hardwork.
Robert Collier once said, “Success is the sum of small efforts – repeated day in and day out.”

“No one can really pull you up very high – you loose your grip on the rope. But on your own two feet you can climb mountains.” Justice Brandeis.

How to motivate yourself to succeed? You must have high self-esteem, clear sense of direction and purpose, perseverance and persistence, superior human relations, action-oriented attitude, focus on your unique strength, high level of discipline, delay gratification and practice continuous self improvement.

Success is 85% attitude and 15% aptitude. William James once said, “Our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task will determine its successful outcome.”

Dream and motivate yourself to succeed in life. T.E Lawrence said, “All men dream, but not equally. Those men who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the morning to find it was but vanity, but those men who dream by day – these are dangerous men, for they dream with open eyes to make their dreams come true.”
