How The Donald Stays Motivated
by Peter Murphy
Even highly successful people need to keep an eye
on self-motivation. When thousands of people are looking to you for
leadership, guidance and inspiration you cannot say: "I don´t
feel up to it today".
Even Donald Trump, successful and driven as he is,
has moments when he needs to pause, refocus and consciously get motivated.
In his best selling book, How to Get Rich, Donald
Trump revealed a clever way to stay motivated. And it won´t
cost you a billion dollars to use this motivation strategy.
Trump describes in his book how he sometimes reviews
previous successes. This is a great way he can inspire himself to
achieve even more.
How does he actually do this?
He keeps a box in his office crammed with newspaper
clippings and letters that serve as reminders of his success to date.
He can sift through the contents of the box and relive those special
moments from his past.
By reading newspaper and magazine articles about his
achievements he can quickly and easily motivate himself to achieve
even bigger goals.
And by re-reading letters from people he respects
he can once again enjoy their endorsement of what he does and what
he has achieved.
This simple act of reviewing previous successes is
a powerful way to shift how you think and feel - to renew your sense
of what is possible and to get you into inspired action.
The more you condition your mind to focus on what
you are capable of - the more of your abilities you can tap into.
And when you activate more of your potential you will succeed much
more often.
How can you apply this motivation secret today?
1. Surround your work area with evidence of your previous
successes. Place certificates, awards and photos in a prominent location.
Don´t leave them gathering dust in a drawer.
2. Keep letters and newspaper clippings that highlight
your achievements. e.g. customer testimonials, trade magazine articles
about new developments you are involved in, notes of promotions or
bonuses you have earned.
3. Review your previous successes on a regular basis.
When you do so you will be conditioning your mind to expect and create
even more success in the future.
As you begin to remind yourself of what you are capable
of you will naturally start to demand more of yourself and you´ll
feel inspired to achieve greater results.
Your motivation will soar and each little success
will build on the previous success to create an unstoppable motivation
that transforms the quality of your life.
Although this motivation secret sounds too simple
to be of any value it really does work. After all, if Donald Trump
pays attention to it, don´t you think you could benefit from
doing the same?
