With self-motivation & self-management to success: 5 steps to the goal

Self-management 1: The choice of words

Your choice of words. Everyone thinks and speaks a lot in images and metaphors. The use of metaphors, i.e. examples for the thing to be explained from another area, is a very effective tool, both in terms of self-motivation and inspiring others People, which we rarely use consciously. For example, how would you complete the following sentence?

change is... It may be that it is more useful to see change as an adventure, for example, than as a necessary evil. Does it make a difference in terms of yours Motivation, whether you describe (and feel) as the “fifth wheel in the car” or as the “motor that drives the whole thing forward in a well-dosed manner”. Do you see the phone as simply a “connection to bad people” or a “power tool for generating revenue”. So, when dealing with yourself, be careful about the metaphors you use. These have tremendous power in relation to your own attitude. Use this influence to your advantage!

What do you habitually do with your body? Why is that so important? Your inner condition is directly linked to me the way you move your body. Try it: Sit down as if you were depressed. They let the shoulders hang, the corners of the mouth go down and they breathe flat. If you have taken this posture, try to change happy, euphoric thoughts without changing your posture.

How good is that? At most, it takes a lot of mental effort. You can also try it the other way around. Now sit down as if you were happy. You just sit down as if you were happy. For example, you take your shoulders back, take a deep breath and, most importantly, put on a very broad grin. While you are doing this, try unhappy. That is also difficult. This connection between physiology and one's own inner state also applies to other emotion pairs such as “Motivated vs. Demotivated ”. Use this knowledge to your advantage!

Self-management 3: Productive questions

Between your ears you have one of the most powerful computers in the world Welt. However, the instruction manual was forgotten upon delivery. How can you control your mental focus? With Ask can you your Brain steer in a specific direction at the push of a button. Example: What in your environment, in the room you are in, has the color blue? Find anything blue for 10 seconds.

Usually much less, because your mental focus was on the color blue due to the question asked. So you can ask your awareness playing light control yourself. What does that mean when applied to important areas of life? If you ask yourself what is good or bad about something, your brain will automatically strive to find an answer to the question asked. The same effect occurs with questions such as: where is the opportunity vs. where is the threat. What is motivating about this vs. what is demotivating about this? Pay attention to the questions you habitually ask yourself.

Nobody achieves his Set always right away. Dealing with “nos” also needs to be learned. Constructive thinking includes, among other things, dealing with failures useful to deal with For example, by asking yourself what you can learn from this. Any form of rejection is usually uncomfortable. One thinks and acts constructively when this is not taken personally. Which Opinions is more important to you? The other person's or your own opinion of yourself?

Of course, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't matter what other people think. It just isn't meant to be overrated. The comparison with other people is also perfectly normal within certain healthy limits. In the Psychology this is called an object reference. This means that we focus on other people and seek validation through them. It is more constructive and motivating, however, not to compare yourself with other people, but with yourself, i.e. simply to be the best person you can be: no more, but also no less - that is very motivating. Try it!

Self-management 5: inside bastard?

Who doesn't know him? the inner one Schweinehund. You have to struggle with it again and again in relation to a certain goal. As banal as it may seem: seriously ask yourself whether you really want to achieve this. The sacrifices to be made often seem more real than the benefits of achieving the goals. For example, longer working hours or changing habits are necessary. Make your motives crystal clear - this reduces the inner struggle considerably and leads to more movement in your project.

Most of the time it's not the missing one Discipline or even laziness, but a lack of good reasons to pursue one's goals consistently. If you look at people who have worked at something with great perseverance over a long period of time, you will notice that they all had strong motivations for their actions. Suppose you have decided to pursue a goal seriously. Then you reduce the inner struggle considerably if you develop good reasons for this (preferably in writing). You can submit these reasons at any time Eyes Hold on when you need an extra dose of motivation. Wouldn't this moment be a good time to start with this?
