New Poll - How Do You Stay Motivated?

[iketz0]

I motivating myself by thinking that my business will become successful.. of course, If you thinking that, you need to work on it..

[Perseus]

Well, I have a bit of hard time on that one, otherwise I would already be a multi-billionaire.
I hear so many different points of view on the subject of motivation.
But wouldn't you agree that a very-very strong motivation and desire to achieve, can get you to your goals smoothly and fast-track?????
I wish I had that one..............

I promise this is not a plug for my site... but I stay motivated by running a site that's geared towards success. I'm a firm believe in auto-suggestion and the power of the subconscious mind. So... I figured I would start a site that required me to think positive/success oriented things. It's a constant reminder.... motivation.

Motivation is neccessary for doing any business. You may get motivation from many, but the most impotant is the self motivation. If you think you can, then you can. You need to put in all your efforts in a right way which will surely leads to success. I believe only in self motivation.

Did you know for most people in business fear of failure is a bigger motivator than greed of profits???
I motivate my self with food - cheescake anyone !!!!

Yes, Cheesecake is a great motivator. I reward myself with a slice from time to time

Believe what you're doing is meaningful and enjoy it!

It really doesn't take much to keep me motivated because I am so passionate about what I do. When you are passionate about what you do, the motivation comes automatically. If you have a hard time staying motivated perhaps you are in the wrong business or niche.

Waking up every day at 5:00 am to start working is my motivation as well as maintaining a healthy lifestyle doing 40 pushups and 50 situps a day

The satisfaction of providing a quality service to clients who depend on you to provide thats service is very strong motivation.

Excellent poll.

What keeps me inspired is that I see the reaching. I know what I'm shooting for, and I know that I'm going to have to take certain steps to get there. I visualize myself as already having achieved my goal(s). And I know that when I do reach my goals, that is by no means the end. I'll just go for even higher goals.

Very well spoken. That is basically the sum-up of how I do it as well.

[williecity]

motivated by actually liking what i do

[brissy1992]

Generally speaking I think about the money building up lol.
Also read stories about other successful entrepreneurs makes me think well if they can do it why can't I. Not relevant but my toe just cramped up when writing this it hurt lol.

the thought of starting something is great, and looks nice on the resume

[hippie_wantab]

I get on weekly calls with my team. I have a great team that helps in my trainning.

Often I get into a mode of "I know how this all should work, so why arent things happening", and then I'll have a discussion with my mentor and she'll explain something in a way I never thought of. And that's when I realize that I don't know it all yet.

Yes I work for myself, but it's nice to have a team I can rely on.
