The term ‘motivate’ simply means injecting a burning desire for a course of action to someone. Motivation is believed to be a vital element for success in any endeavor. It can be both intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic motivation simply means a desire that comes from the inner soul, a desire of satisfaction, internal strength, eternal joy and transcendental relationships. Extrinsic motivation defines the desire achieved from the external influences like praise, monetary rewards, trophies and recognition.
Some define motivation as desire and some as energy. This kind of energy can be physical, emotional or spiritual that has the power of setting your goals and dreams. This energy continuum can be positive, energetic and strong at one end whereas negative, stagnant and depressed at the other end. Ranging between the two ends of the energy continuum, you can easily judge the extent of determination and motivation you hold to fulfill your dreams.
Some even define motivation as a feeling that normally opposes your mind. There may be situations where you’ll find a strong war between your mind and heart. Sometimes, the fire in your belly opposes you to do something that your mind says. Belly is said to be the center of all your energy levels, therefore it is also expressed as a focal point of motivation.
However and whatever you define motivation as, one single aim of the term is to set up a fire deep inside you that helps you to accomplish your goals. No goal can be accomplished and no dream can be fulfilled without a burning desire or without motivation. You just need to drive yourself to have the feeling of being motivated. This feeling helps you pull out all the energy from the energy center of your body and acts as stimulation to action.
So, motivation is a blend of all – desire, energy, feeling and a constant source of inspiration that gives you a strong reason for pursuing your goals.
