What do you do to keep yourself motivated?

Post by alstonfered »

Hello Everyone.

My motivational technique is to visualize myself as already successful and affirming this mental picture at least five times a day especially before falling asleep and immediately after waking up.

Motivated for what? Weight loss? Improving golf scores? Career? Sex?

There are many thing to get motivated for.

I make lists of everything I need to accomplish that day. That way I can scratch them off as I go and I can keep what I need to be doing in my mind.

If, at the end of the day, my list isn't complete.... I connect car battery cables to my nipples.:p

Me too. I make a list the night before but have catagories of 'Must Do', 'Need to do', and 'will do' If I have time.

Then I attach the car battery cables to my nipples. No reason... I just like It.

Achievable goals to keep me working.

So many articles a year to publish, same with poems.

And vision of a black belt, within my reach in a few weeks. That gets me up and going!

Look at my daughter
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

Folks who'd like to copy my intellectual work should expect to pay me for it.:-6
