   To be able to motive 1 yourself, or self-motivation, occurs when a person has the desire and willingness to do something and is internally motivated to do it.


  Sometimes it's very difficult to get ourselves moving and achieve what we want to achieve. The natural inclination 2 is to procrastinate 3. Life just seems to get in the way. There is a job to go to, a house to clean, groceries to do, television to watch - whoops 4!
  I guess we get pretty good at finding excuses to not get started on an exercise routine, reading a new book or cleaning out that closet.
  The fact is that we are creatures of routine and habit. However, once we allow ourselves to get into the habit of doing something, it's no longer a struggle and we may even end up enjoying it.
  When we were young most of us probably didn't like bathing or brushing our teeth but as it became habit, we no longer thought about it, we just did it.
  So what can we do to motivate ourselves to accomplish our goals?
  For starters we can do some critical thinking and ask ourselves what will happen if we don't develop a particular habit. What will the consequences be if we neglect to do so?
  Here are some tips on how to get moving:
  Decide what you want. It's hard to motivate yourself when you don't have a goal or objective. Set a goal and decide how you are going to go about it. Then break it down into smaller sections so it's easier to tackle and less overwhelming.
  Keep track of your progress. Keep a log or journal where you chart your progress. It can motivate you by gauging 5 how far you have come and how much you have accomplished 6. Looking at it can also motivate you to keep pushing ahead.
  Post motivating pictures or slogans on your fridge or elsewhere. It is always inspiring to see pictures of people who have accomplished what you're going for. It makes it attainable 7 and realistic. Likewise, little slogans like "go for it" or "just do it" can give you the little boost you need. Read inspiring or motivational quotes.       
      Remind yourself why you want this and focus on the end result. If you remind yourself that you want to be healthier, go for that promotion 8 or just better yourself, it will re-establish why you are doing what you're doing. It's not unusual to hit a slump 9. Sometimes we forget what we set out to do and a little reminder 10 is all we need to be revitalized.
  Make it a habit. Once you have accomplished your goal or objective make it a habit. If it was to exercise or eat properly, keep it up. If it was to work for a promotion or any other one-time event, maintain the habit of self-improvement. Once it becomes a habit, it's second nature to you and you don't have to think about it anymore.
  Interesting Tip:
  There is an interesting point to be aware of if you are too organized or work on a task in the same way for too long. You can actually jeopardize 11 your motivation so you should walk away and take breaks every now and then. Change the conditions and timetable you're working under. To do so will give you renewed energy and a fresh perspective for the project.
