Power Up Your Life: Meditation for Motivation

5/29/2017

Comments

 
Picture
​You don’t want to get out of bed. You stare at the ceiling, attempting to muster motivation to do things that you have zero interest in. When you get to work, you stare at the tasks you have to do and you feel totally overwhelmed. After work isn’t much better. You prefer to sprawl on the couch, watching TV, than tackling chores around the house or even spending time with your family. 

While you may wonder why you are lagging so much in life, you need to understand that this is not your fault. You are not lazy, or stupid, or a waste. Instead, you are simply unmotivated. You have given up your own power over your life in order to feel more secure. Something is preventing a fire from growing in your heart and fueling your energy. 

 You should change your attitude and take power back over your life. You possess more power over your mind and your feelings than you think. One of the easiest ways to do this is through meditation designed to awaken your motivation. There are many meditations that can successfully awaken your inner drive.

Work Harder and Accomplish More

A STRETCHYOURSELF Makeover

Picture
It’s impossible, right? In order to get more done, you need to invest more time. Working ten hour days will make you more accomplished than a colleague that only works seven. Studying three hours a day will get you better grades than the guy who skims through a few chapters before the test. More work = more results.

I disagree. Working smart beats working hard. In some cases working more can actually damage the amount you get accomplished. In both cases, the degree effort matches outcomes has been overstated.

Working less and accomplishing more isn’t easy. It requires thinking creatively to find more effective ways of doing things. But first, you have to be open to the possibility that your methods aren’t as efficient as they could be. Once you do that you can look for ways to get more accomplished without just increasing your to-do list. So in this blog I'm going to share some of the rules I use to approach my day to day operations, so read on and enjoy!

Now What?

Have you ever felt relieved and deflated after achieving a huge goal? You ran your first marathon, hit your mark on achieving your fitness goals, sold a business you started, or had a record sales month in your job or business. Once that initial celebratory buzz and emotions are over, you start relaxing, even contemplating what's next.

First, realize this: It's natural to feel this way. After all, you put all your emotions, focus and energy into ensuring your actions were consistently moving you forward toward your goals and probably put other parts of your life on hold. And also, the achievement wasn't as fulfilling as you imagined.

Understand you've sacrificed a lot. You've achieved a large goal, and it's really useful to understand that you may get complacent. The complacency may be because you're relieved that you were able to achieve it.

After reaching a big goal, complacency is almost certain. Here are a couple of tips to help you stay consistent with the most important relationship you keep - with yourself so read on and enjoy!

​Every year thousands of people set goals and commitments that they either achieve, quit, or make excuses and reasons why they cannot accomplish their goals. And the biggest thing they do to themselves is disrespect the relationship they have with THEMSELVES by allowing those excuses to keep them from continuing. If you want to STRETCHYOURSELF to the next level, there are specific disciplines and simpler ways of seeing the world through your eyes that will help you understand that being committed will enable a happier life that responds to you.

Sometimes we make life more complicated than it is. We attach happiness to achievement and then look for it in all the wrong ways and in all the wrong places. Of course, you don’t have to live like this. If you feel like you are, it’s time to simplify things. It’s time to get back to the basics. So this blog is about helping you become more committed to achieve the things you want in life, while respecting the relationship you keep with yourself so read on and enjoy!

One of the latest sayings that floated around for awhile that I caught on to at the last minute was a "hot mess"  Now a “hot mess” has many different meanings that I've learned, but the "hot mess" that I'm writing about is when something blows up in your face.  Or a situation that makes you look bad.  If you find yourself in a "hot mess" make sure you get over yours, because it’s not as worst as it seems.

If anyone knows me or has met me, knows I love talking to people anywhere.  I always learn something interesting when I talk to people. And in this blog, I'm gonna talk about how to get over any situation you make face that gets you down, so read on and enjoy!

Challenge Your Fears

It’s a feeling of heaviness deep within you.  You try to ignore it, but you can’t.  Dread and discouragement gradually seep into your thoughts.  Fear and apprehension soon follows, until you are completely paralzyed to take action, and your defeated before you even try.

I feel just like this when I start a new project or tackle something that I've been trying to accomplish.

It makes me want to curl up into a ball and cry.  I feel lost and alone and my heart races and I my mind starts wandering and thinking about everything I percieve will happen and I feel like I want to give up.  I want to fall on my bed and bury my face in a pillow.  But that doesn’t work, because the sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach doesn't allow me to sleep.

Fear is terribly painful on so many levels. so in this blog I'm going to talk about how I approach my fears and want to personally challenge you to do the same, so read on and enjoy!

  • Does my Sunday night feel just like my Friday night?
If the answer is no, then NOW is the time to stretch yourself and make a change - a change for you.

Never Give Up

Never give up.  Once you give up it's over. When you give up you automatically fail. 

You can't give up on your goals. Believe in yourself and believe that you can and will succeed. Keep trying. Keep stretching yourself by doing different things to achieve your goals. Most people never achieve their goals because they often quit just when they're on the verge of reaching their dream. 

Let's face it if you give up - it's over and nothing changes. 
Those who quit always fail. 
Those who succeed never give up. 

I know some of you will say: "Ron, I haven't given up. I've been trying for years and nothing has changed. I keep trying and nothing works. I simply can't go on anymore."

Succeeding isn't about doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for a different result. That's insanity. 

By never giving up, you continue striving toward your goals but you have to always try something different in order to get a different result. Always look for a solution. 

And in today’s blog I'll show you how and why you need to stay committed to your goal why you should never give up and how to keep the momentum going so you reach or surpass your goals.

Read on and enjoy!

Negative thoughts can and will destroy your life!

A mind filled with negative thoughts will make you feel miserable, inadequate and will lead you to failure after failure no matter how hard you try to succeed.

If you have a pattern of negative thinking you'll be in debt and end up in destructive or negative relationships. If you want to succeed, enjoy happiness and live a life of abundance, and prosperity - you have to eliminate any negative thinking, and negative beliefs.

You'll also have to replace those negative thoughts with positive thoughts that allow you to succeed and enjoy life. While this may sound challenging, it's a lot easier than you think and in today's blog I'm going to outline just how you can eliminate negative thinking and begin creating the life you want in a few simple steps.

2015 is fast coming to a close, we’re in August already.  Man! Where did the time go?  If you’re like me, August is a month of litmus testing to see how far I am with the goals I’ve set and celebrate the small successes and the experiences so far.
