New Poll - How Do You Stay Motivated?

[Cucumber Marketing]

I'll actually have a "motivational" day every couple weeks. I'll stop by the local Porsche dealer, watch some of my favorite motivational movies (Boiler Room), Buy a new suit or power tie, etc.

When I sit in front of my computer for brainstorming sessions, each page on Word starts with the date, focus, and a picture of something I want to work for...house, car, boat, trip, etc.

ME TOO!!! I have it in my calendar! "Motivational Day!" - every Saturday I read motivational books, quotes, etc.

I also, do yoga, I know it might sounds unrelated first, but it totally is. Strong body - strong mind! It helps with concentration and determination.

Carpe Diem, ya'll

I also find meditation important to remain focussed on whats important

My motivation to get my business started is picturing myself in the future being successful (not overly idealistic lol, just well off)

Think about your goals and how would you feel once you achieved them every day:-)

To keep me motivated I always use to get inspired with the performance of people who have achieved the same that I want to and try to get tips and suggestions from my seniors and create a passion to achieve more and more. I think all of us can attain highly motivated attitude by following others who are senior to us.

well i tell ya. I think that I wondered into this forum looking for motivation. After a terrible bout w/ pneumonia, a lengthy never ending project to "move" the business and renovate the new building.... I feel like, I've lost my vision. My attitude is getting bad and I'm looking for my purpose again.... when I thought that I already found it. Its strange but I hope that I can find some older wiser entrepeneurs here that have the tools that I'm looking for. I've hit my glass ceiling.

I'm motivated by the thrill of the game. I love interacting with people and creating products people find useful.

Money is always a factor though, I'd love a Bugatti one day...

I find affirmations highly valuable.

Having faith that I am already successful and have already succeeded in an undertaking greatly speeds up its manifestation.

I do find visualisation extremely helpful.

I like to write about my goals. I spend time gathering images and other sources of inspiration that harmonise with my chief aim.

Living a good life and being healthy will make it far easier to stay focussed and motivated. Meditation is a fantastic way to keep your mind focussed! Find a meditation technique that you like and then do it!

I agree with you! Thumbs up!

Keeping a vision of where you really want to be in the future is great motivation for anyone that has a dream or goal, especially financially.

I'm with you on that statement

Knowing the current situation of the stock market is crucial especially if you have stocks invested in it. It is better to be up to dated to the situations so that you could know the actions to be taken if some changes in the stock market occur as to secure your stocks to lose. Today, the stock market is unstable so we need to be vigilant to the current market conditions.

I think visualization of the long term rewards as well as pacing yourself and establishing short term goals is what keeps me motivated.
