How do you keep motivation?
« on: December 15, 2010, 11:58:36 pm »
What  kind of things keep you motivated toward your goals- whether it be life-long, academic, recovery, quitting bad habits or starting new good habits,...etc.???

Just one.  A personal relationship with the Lord.  Everything else just falls into place.

I think strong positive relationships are very important to keeping you motivated whether it is family, friends, etc..  I am very close to my mom and I have a good relationship with my boyfriend of 6 years. It hardly even feels like we have been together that long because we always have so much fun together and our routine doesn't feel boring or stale. We encourage each other in whatever ventures we choose. Its great.

Start the day by being grateful that you are motivated. Read a motivation blog online. Im sure there are plenty. Find one relating to what you want to be motivating your self to do.

I believe you have to have faith in yourself. For addiction you probably need a group you can meet with.

Prayer is always what strengthens me.

Get your lazy butt out of the house and do something positive. If you have faith in yourself, you will succeed.

I agree with you 100%. Without a relationship with your Lord; however you wish to serve Him, you are most definantly out of sinc. Everyone is so caught up on and in religion that they fail to realize that it is a PERSONAL relationship that you have with the CREATOR not MAN. I can not tell anyone how to serve GOD or which way is best to serve GOD, but I can say that if whatever religion you choose, makes you a BETTER person and do BETTER things not only for yourself, but for your family and others less fortunate than you, you are most certainly off to a good start!

I'd have to go with prayer.  The fact that I'm going into ministry and feel it's something I'm called to in life by God helps with everything I do, because everything is a means to that end.
