Is motivation a blessing to us?


                                                  Is motivation a blessing to us?



The most prominent answer for this question is "yes", only if it refers to a positive motivation. A person can be motivated both positively as well as negatively. As a consequence, we should lead our life on par with the positive motivation. At first, what is this word "motivation" means? Simply, motivation is our desire to do something which is related to our personal life, or else to our external society. I strongly believe that, motivation can help anyone to achieve their goals and even their dreams, whatever they may be. Motivation can happen in several ways. Among them, the self motivation is the most valuable gift for someone in his or her life. Because, our life is ours. It should not be owned by someone else. I really agree with Jane Travis's idea that "the relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have". Before building any rapport with others, we should have a powerful relationship with our self. We should motivate our self to be happy and to achieve our goals. Even though we try to find happiness by giving our heart to someone else, I believe that there is no person in this world who can make us happy, than our own self. 

Then, how can we motivate our self?

Everyday, we can read, listen, and follow motivational quotes through books, songs, and even through the social media that we access daily. Motivational quotes can help us to reach our potential everyday. However, one can simply think that they are just words, and they cannot create impacts on our life. yes of course, they are only words. But most importantly, they are positive word. If we follow those positive words daily, it will definitely bring us toward the success. For example, in every religion there are sermons. So, People tend to follow those sermons daily with the aim of having a better life. Actually, it will become a blessing to them. Accordingly, if we follow motivational quotes daily, we will be able to reach our victory. our life does not flow in the same way. Probably, we have to give up things and to struggle with unpleasant realities of life. In such a circumstance, a single motivational phrase can be a powerful inspiration for us.   

If we appreciate our self by giving worth to our own goals, I think will be the best motivation for us, which directs us to our own success.

  2. Actually,motivation is not only blessing,according to my point of view,it is something essential which can gain valued results in our life.Motivation help us to improve our way of feeling,thinking and behaving.Also, most of people expect motivation,when they experienced a failure.So,do we need motivation only for our failures? On the other hand,motivation can be brought out as a vital factor to be successful in any phase of our life.I think,if we stay motivated each day,it will push us closer to our goals.As you mentioned,self-motivation is better than someone else's motivation.I am also agree with that notion.When struggling to fulfill our goals,being self-motivated helps to understand the issues hindering the path to complete a task.So,let's stay motivated in life without losing our hopes.

  3. Yes. It is true that motivation is a blessing. According to my view, I think it is not only a blessing,it is also a strong force which helps you to move forward in your life goals. Setting goals for ourselves is something that I consider to be very important, I believe in always pushing myself further and further in life, not only physically but mentally as well. For me, self motivation is empowering. Finding something that I enjoy and love to do and setting the final goal of achieving it. You can do anything that you set your mind to, as long as you continue to motivate yourself and others around you. You are more strong if you are motivated by the loved ones around you. Other than that, you can watch motivational videos, read motivational quotes, can participate in motivational activities in order to reach your target. Thus, motivation plays an important role in our lives. It can be said that, motivation boosts your desire to achieve a meaningful life goal.

  4. Yes I agree with your argument that you say every other person can be an influence in motivating ourselves, yet the best motivator for yourself is just you.

  5. Yes absolutely! Seeing positive words daily and reading them actually helps someone spiritually. As Jessica Hische said, writing “you are enough” on your mirror is an example for that. Instead of being grumpy about how you look, that quote will actually bring a smile to your face. Even you do not think you are enough Looking at that every day, every morning, your brain will actually process that information and will make you believe it is actually true.

    Self-motivating is a skill one should build alone because it comes from within. It starts withing believing yourself. Even if it is hard to believe in yourself, making effort to do that is enough. Because when you make effort to motivate yourself you will actually receive the energy back. Another instance is that Forcing yourself to believe that you are worthy will eventually make you feel worthy.

  6. In this society,you cannot find someone praising you telling "You're doing the best you can and I'm so proud of you".If someone said it to you,you are so lucky to have such people in your life because it's really a positive motivation. But it's rare in this world.Isn't it? When you really work hard and get no appreciation,you fall and that happens when you rely on others. You can be your own motivation"consistency is harder when no one is clapping you.You must clap for yourself during those times,you should always be your biggest fan". You will not be motivated negatively when you do not get positive feedback(motivation) from others if you know how to be self-motivated. It's a blessing.
    Indeed reading positive words daily helps you to be a good version of yourself. For me those positive quotes really help me when I am broken. There are people even conduct positive speeches and I really love hearing them. If you are self-motivated, you do not worry and you'll do whatever you want in life(achieving goals)blocking the social fear to do something. So, a single motivational quote can really change your life.Some songs can be motivational too. I really like the song" scars to your beautiful" by Alessia Cara. That song also in a way motivational for me.

  7. Rather than calling 'motivation' a blessing I would like to define it as a skill.Without motivation, you can't achieve anything. ... Motivation is an important life skill. The reason it's important is because every person on this earth is unique and has a purpose. To steward your purpose well, you have to be motivated to work towards your goals which helps your dreams become a reality.This becomes a skill as learned ability to perform an action with determined results with good execution often within a given amount of time, energy, or both can lead to have motivation as an inspiration to life.

    In fact. Motivation is not a blessing but a skill that everybody can possess.
