4 Ways to Increase Performance through Motivation

4waystoincreaseperformancethroughmotivation

Motivation can’t carry you to success. You need winning plans and habits. You need the discipline to work even when you don’t feel like it.

You need a sustained effort over a long period of time. You need to stay focused on the goal. You need to create strategic plans with long-term, zoomed out the vision. You need the endurance and patience to be the turtle, not the rabbit.

4 Ways to Increase Performance through Motivation

You also need motivation in order to take your performance to the next level. It sparks you to take action. It fuels you towards your goal. You can harness motivation to energize and inspire your efforts.

Here are 4 ways to effectively take advantage of motivation and increase performance:

1. Read Your Goals Every Day

“Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into visible.”˜Tony Robbins

study from the Dominican University of California showed that people who write down their goals are more likely to achieve them than people who just think about their goals. You can take this a step further. Instead of writing down your goals and relegating them to the back of your drawer, read them every day.

Seeing your goals every day keeps your all-important whys burned in your conscious mind. Knowing your whys drives you to take the action that’s necessary to improve your skills and supercharge your performance.

You don’t need to constantly seek new sources of motivation. The best motivators are the unique goals that come from your heart. Once you’ve identified the goals that ignite your soul, keep going to that well for motivation.

Give yourself a daily dose of inspiration by looking at your goals every morning. Start each day focused on what matters most.

2. Watch Inspiring Videos

“Change your thoughts and you change your world.”˜Norman Vincent Peale

Some days you need a boost. You don’t have the mental bandwidth or the physical energy to execute your plan. It doesn’t matter how you feel. You still need to get up and do the work that will get you closer to achieving your goals. You can’t let your emotions push and pull you in every direction like the wind.

On the days when you’re lacking energy, watch your favorite motivational video for a much -needed dose of motivation. This can instantaneously change your state from one of fear or fatigue to one of abundance and excitement. From this place of strength, you’ll be able to unlock your peak performance.

3. Envision Your Dream Life

“Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”˜ Napoleon Hill

Why are you committed to the road you’ve chosen? What do you grind and struggle for? The answer is simple: you work for the payoff.

When you embark on the journey towards your dreams, you clearly know the reward that you’re seeking. You know what awaits on the other side of all the challenges and setbacks. You’re willing to persevere because you’ve decided that the juice is worth the squeeze.

Over time, the perfect picture you painted of your future can get muddled. When you’re in the forest, it’s easy to lose sight of the vision that fueled you to start blazing this trail.

When you regularly envision what it looks and feels like to live your dream life, your whys remain in sharp focus. With this clear understanding of what drives you, you’re motivated to overcome, persevere, and get back up each time circumstances knock you down.

4. Ride the Wave of Motivation

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”˜ Benjamin Franklin

Strategizing and planning sets you up for successful outcomes. Mapping your route to success isn’t easy. Building processes, systems, and plans are mentally draining. Anticipating and mitigating the potential risks that lie ahead takes significant mental horsepower.

You can use the surge of energy produced by the motivation to help make this work easier. Think about how challenging it is to focus on the task at hand when you’re worried about other things in your life. Compare that to the times when you’re in a flow state and the hours fly by effortlessly.

You can’t plan for motivation. You can’t schedule it. Motivation comes and goes without notice. It’s a certainty that it will show up at some point in the future. When motivation arrives, take advantage of it. Ride the wave of motivation. Use this peak mental state to do the hard work of creating a blueprint for your success.

You’re not a robot. You can’t program yourself to always take the right action. You can’t train yourself to always emotionally detach from the outcome. When you hit a bump in the road, use motivation to keep your momentum going. Use motivation for a shot of adrenaline. Use motivation to change your emotional states. Tilt the odds in your favor by using the power of motivation.
