HAVE A VISION FOR YOUR LIFE

The root word of motivation is "motive." The definition of motive is, "A reason to act." This is the cognitive or rational side of motivation.It is your vision. You have to have a vision that is big enough to motivate you. If you are making $50,000 a year, it isn't going to motivate you to set your goal at $52,000 a year. You just won't get motivated for that because the reward isn't enough. Maybe $70,000 a year would work for you. Set out a vision and a strategy for getting there. Have a plan and work the plan.
