A Lack of Self Motivation Skills May Not Be Your Problem
Do you doubt your self motivation skills?
Do you feel like it's just a chore to get things done?
Do you get down because there's things you know are important to you, but you just can't get the energy going to do them?
You know you want life abundance in many areas. You want to learn more about your spiritual side, create financial abundance or become more physically fit, but there's something stopping you.
I'm going to suggest that your self motivation skills may not be at fault here.
Only you will know if this applies to you or not. You may actually need help with your self motivation skills. If this is truly the case, read my tips for self motivation skills as well as the links you'll find off my main motivation page.
However, there could be something else causing you to stray from doing that which makes you truly happy.
Dig deep and ask yourself if there is something in your life that is eating at you. Is there any underlying pain you've never dealt with? Is there a situation you're in that is making you unhappy, but you've never taken the time to fix it?
If so, you may find that you can refine your self motivation skills, but still feel un-motivated because you're depressed or spiritually unfulfilled. You want to get going but you feel dull inside.
Your unresolved issue is causing pent up frustration, depression or anxiety. It's preventing you from moving on with your life. If a life of abundance is your goal, you'll need to handle whatever is causing you to be stuck.
What could be causing this in you? What could deflate your enthusiasm so much that all of your self motivation skills are reduced to almost nothing?
Ask yourself this - Is there a relationship in your life that went bad at some point? Maybe you had a falling out with your mother, father, sister, brother or friend in the past. One or both of you decided to stop talking.
You may not realize it (most likely you do and have just been ignoring the issue), but this situation may be sabotaging your spiritually higher self. You think you're OK with it, but somewhere deep inside of you, you're hurting over this. You want to rectify the relationship. You want to talk with this person and tell them that you love them no matter what happened in the past.
Is this ringing a bell for you? If so, can you see why you can work on your self motivation skills all you want, but if you don't work on this deeper issue, your soul feels dark?
If your soul is hurting, it's going to be difficult to live a life where you feel free and abundant.
Maybe your problem is work or career related. Are you in a dead-end job or a career that leaves you feeling unfulfilled? You try to act as if this is OK for you. You try to accept that this is just the way it's going to be.
So you distract yourself with reading info on bettering your self motivation skills. You think if you could just get more motivated, maybe something will change.
Maybe you need to change the situation that's slowly killing you inside first. I'll bet if you found work that made you find that shining light inside yourself, that made you feel a child-like enthusiasm, that you'd be motivated enough to do everything you sit around thinking about right now!
Maybe your problem is a current relationship, rather than a past one. Are you in a relationship that's making you unhappy? You're not fulfilled. You want more.
But you don't do anything about it. You stay involved while everyday you die a little bit more inside. No wonder you can't get going. No wonder your self motivation skills are taking a hit.
You're allowing your spirit to be taken away.
Now, you may have none of these issues going on. You may work in the career of your dreams and have the best relationships in the world. If that's the case, and you're struggling with your self motivation skills, then go to my self-motivation page and use the tips you find.
But if my words on this page have hit you right in the gut. If you recognize that you're harboring something unresolved in your soul, you need to make a change.
I wish I could tell you what to do and make it easy. But, truthfully, it's not going to be easy. You're going to have to just do it. Face whatever it is that's sapping your energy and self motivation skills.
If you're willing to do that, what I can promise is that you'll emerge on the other side of this dark situation and time in your life.
Do you know what's waiting for you on the other side?
A life where your spirit truly awakens. A life where every day is a wonderful array of experiences that enrich you and make you feel fulfilled to be alive.
A life of abundance.
Change your life,
Matt
