“To move forward today, you must learn to say good-bye to yesterday's hurts, tragedies and baggage. You can't build a monument to past problems and fail forward.”
John Maxwell
No one can motivate anyone to do anything. All a person can do for another is
provide them with incentives to motivate themselves. Here are ten very effective
strategies to help you get up and get moving toward actualizing your enormous,
untapped potential.
* Be willing to leave your comfort zone. The greatest barrier to achieving your
potential is your comfort zone. Great things happen when you make friends with your discomfort zone.
* Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Wisdom helps us avoid making mistakes and comes from making of them. Put your best and right efforts in the right direction.
* Don’t indulge in self-limiting thinking. Think empowering, expansive thoughts.
*Choose to be happy. Happy people are easily motivated. Happiness is your
birthright, so don’t settle for anything else.
* Spend at least one hour a day in self-development. Read good books or listen to inspiring tapes. Driving to and from work provides an excellent opportunity to listen to self-improvement tapes.
* Train yourself to finish what you start. So many of us become scattered as we
try to accomplish a task. Finish one task before you begin another.
* Live fully in the present moment. When you live in the past or the future you
aren’t able to make things happen in the present.
* Commit yourself to joy. C.S. Lewis once said, “Joy is the serious business of
heaven.”
* Never quit when you experience a setback or frustration. Success could be just
around the corner.
* Dare to dream big dreams. If there is anything to the law of expectation then we are moving in the direction of our dreams, goals and expectations.
The real tragedy in life is not in how much we suffer, but rather in how much we
miss, so don’t miss a thing.
Charles Dubois once said, “We must be prepared, at any moment, to sacrifice who we are for who we are capable of becoming.”

Hi
An excellent sharing. There is nothing more important to success than self motivation to keep us going. The first point ' Moving out of the comfort zone ' holds the key. The trick to do it is to see a reason for attempting it; this could be the success you visualize, the inherent challenge that exists, the sheer ecstasy of a new experience, the thrill of experimentation etc.
The last para also holds a very significant meaning 'for we often end up missing out on the ample bounty around us simply because we tend to focus on the insignificant cravings that elude us'.
