"MOTIVATION MAKE LIFE SIMPLE" PART 3

Hey steemit, Here I'm with the part 3 of "MOTIVATION MAKE LIFE SIMPLE".....

Persistence works—Continued effort and commitment will overcome initial obstacles or failures. Don’t see an early failure as a sign of things to come. Remember the old saying, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” Once you achieve your first success this way, you’ll be less apt to give up and lose motivation too quickly in the future.
Try living in the now as if it were the future that you hope to have—For example, if you want to lose weight, don’t think of yourself as someone struggling to lose it. Think of yourself as someone pounds lighter. See yourself as healthier, and having a different lifestyle. To maintain this lifestyle, you have to eat healthier and exercise. Just think of how your life will be then and do it now.
Put your goals in writing—Sometimes, the act of writing down what you are going to do is a strong motivator. Writing down goals helps you make them more specific and less vague. When you write them, use action verbs.
Give all your goals measurable outcomes—By doing so, it helps you know when you’ve achieved each goal you set.
Specify completion dates—You won’t always complete your goals on these dates, but setting them helps you stay focused on completion. Many people work better with deadlines. Don’t make them unrealistic, but do set them so you’ll have to push yourself to achieve them.
Plan and write down what your reward will be for achieving the goal—It doesn’t have to be an elaborate reward, it can be simple. Rewarding yourself along the way is a big motivator. Remember your reward each time you start to feel your motivation drain, and it can increase your desire to reach the goal.
Make a list of obstacles—Always think of everything that might stand in your way and decide what you can do about each obstacle. If you design a plan, you’ll reduce the influence of each obstacle and increase the chances that you will be successful.
Write down the benefits of achieving your goal—One strong motivator is knowing exactly what you will gain from reaching your goal. For example, keeping your chequebook balanced will give you more spending money, or walking every day will help you stay healthier and reduce stress.
Break down complicated plans into manageable tasks—Be specific about what has to be accomplished. By setting goals along the way, your tasks will seem more manageable, and not overwhelming.
Don’t be embarrassed to ask for help—A partner can help you stay committed and motivated. Look for role models, people who have already achieved the goals you seek to reach. Ask them for advice and suggestions. Find how they got where they are, and incorporate what you learn into your plan.
