　　Motivation and How to Get Motivated
　　By Remez Sasson
　　How many times have you started enthusiastically a weight loss program, began a bodybuilding or aerobics 1 training program, or started learning a foreign language, only to stop after a short while?
　　Often, there is lack of motivation, or only a short-lived one.
　　Motivation has become a popular term nowadays. There are motivational coaches and speakers, and motivational books and articles. What is it actually, and why do you need it?
　　Motivation is a driving force. In order to accomplish anything, you need a driving force, otherwise nothing will happen. A wish is not strong enough to make you take action. A wish is a weak desire. Only a strong desire can drive you forward, to act and accomplish aims and goals.
　　In order to get motivated, you need to know exactly what it is that you want, to possess a strong desire, and to be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your goal.
　　It's easier to display motivation in connection with short-term goals. When it comes to long-term goals, it is not always possible to sustain 2 the motivation for a longer period of time. This is why it is wiser to start with small goals, and after gaining experience with being motivated, you proceed to bigger goals.
　　If you desire to get a certain object, or accomplish a certain goal, but you don't feel motivated enough to act, it means that the desire or goal are not important enough. To be motivated to take action and do something in respect to your goal, you need to possess a strong desire.
　　Motivation has much to do with the emotions and the imagination, which means that if you want to increase it, you have to work on your feelings and imagination.
　　Tips to Increase Your Motivation:
　　1. Think and analyze 3 your desire, to find out whether you really want to achieve it, and whether it is worth the effort and time.
　　2. Make your goal very clear. Writing it down will help.
　　3. Think often about your goal or desire.
　　4. Visualize 4 your goal as already accomplished 5, and shut your mind to doubts and disbelief.
　　5. Read books or articles about the subject of your goal.
　　6. Read about people who have achieved success. This is quite inspiring.
　　7. Think often about the benefits you will gain by achieving your goal. This will increase your desire and motivation.
　　8. Visualize, and think about how you would feel after achieving your goal.
　　9. Repeat positive affirmations such as: "I have the desire and inner strength to achieve my goal". Repeat this affirmation often, with attention and belief.
　　10. Start taking small steps toward your goal right now. Don't wait for the right opportunity and time.
　　动力以及如何获得动力
　　Remez Sasson
　　有多少次你开始热心减肥计划，开始健身或有氧训练计划，或开始学习一门外语，但仅维持一段时间就停止了？
　　通常情况下，这就是缺乏动力，或者说只是短期的动力。
　　动力已成为时下流行的术语。有激励教练和演说家，励志书籍和文章。它究竟是什么，你为什么需要它？
　　动力是一种驱动力。为了做成任何事，你需要一种驱动力，否则什么都不会发生。一个愿望不足以让你采取行动。愿望是无力的欲望。只有强烈的欲望才能驱使你前进，让你行动，达成目标。
　　为了获得动力，你需要知道什么是你真正想要的，拥有一个强烈的愿望，并愿意做任何事情来实现你的目标。
　　短期目标更容易显示出动力。当涉及到长期目标，并不总是能够维持较长时间的动力。这就是为什么从一个小目标开始会显得更明智些，并且在获得经验与动力之后，你会朝着更大的目标前进。
　　如果你想得到某样东西，或者达成某个目标，但你没有足够的动力去行动，那就意味着愿望或目标不够重要。要主动采取行动，为你的目标做些事情，你需要有强烈的愿望。
　　动力与情绪和想象力有很大关系，这意味着，如果你想增加它，你必须在你的感情和想象力下功夫。
　　增加你的动力的小技巧：
　　1.思考和分析你的愿望，看看你是否是真的想要实现它，是否值得你付出努力和时间。
　　2.使你的目标变得清晰。写下来会更有帮助。
　　3. 经常思考你的目标或愿望。
　　4.想象你的目标已经完成，不再质疑。
　　5.阅读有关目标的书籍或文章。
　　6.阅读那些已经取得成功的人的文章。这是相当鼓舞人心的。
　　7.经常想想，通过实现你的目标你会获得多少好处。这会增加你的欲望和动力。
　　8.想象一下，想想你达到目标后会有什么样的感受。
　　9.重复积极的肯定，如：“我有内在的力量和愿望来实现我的目标”。注意力集中并坚定的相信，经常重复这样的肯定。
　　10.现在开始朝你的目标迈出一小步。不要等待合适的机会和时间。
