Get Motivated - Stay Motivated!

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?
