Get a motive for motivation

I hear a lot of members talk about needing to "get motivation," instead of looking for an abstract attribute like having motivation, you can find a worthwhile
motive.

Remind yourself about the long-term benefit of your desired action. The next task on your to-do list could be one step toward getting back on track, cutting out the simple carbs, drinking 64 ounces of water, or exercise regularly. It could also mean getting a degree, a promotion, or an improvement in a relationship. It could mean satisfying your curiosity or meeting a new challenge.

Focus on the benefits of an action can help us get moving and motivated. What people call motivation often springs from being clear about what we want in life and going for it!

Being clear about our long-range plans can give us all the energy we need to play life full out.
