Biz Poll: How Do You Stay Motivated?
Thanks to all those who participated in our latest poll.
According to the numbers, most of you read inspirational material to stay motivated. Coming in second was picturing the future. Those who review their vision/goals and those who surround themselves with positive/accomplished people came in third in the voting.
Scott says
I use all the methods listed. I also use anti-motivators. For example, if a person is working at a job he hates, it’s an anti-motivator. During those moments when you’re doing something you’d rather not be doing, soak in it…take it all in…feel your displeasure from the activity and allow those feelings to strengthen your conviction of reaching your goals.”
Sheryl says
I stay motivated by making sure I get enough sleep, enough fun non-work activities in my week, and by taking vacation. I actually get much more done during my work day when I keep my life balanced, then when I’m trying to work too much. I breakdown daunting tasks into a lot of little goals, so I can feel like I’m accomplishing something, and reward myself for completing big projects.”
Jaclyn says
I personally stay focused by picturing the future that I want, or by picturing the thing’s that I need for my family which ultimately take money and hard work to get.”

“you can’t bore me into doing anything”
So I keep looking for ways to make the job fun. It’s truly amazing where you can find the fun in a job if you really look. If nothing else pick yourself a reward ( a damn good one)

Socrates said there are essentially two sources of motivation: Moving away from pain or moving toward pleasure. Simply put, self defeating and unwanted cycles are due to using the first, while having a vision, goals, and workable plans work with the latter.
