3 Main Components of Motivation

There has been a lot written about motivation. Indeed, I have created a book about it. Interestingly, even though I have written other books, the one about motivation seems to be the one that people like or need the most.

What is it about motivation that we find so hard? I would guess the most difficult part is that we have to keep it up, preferably at all times. When we go to the gym, we do our workout and then it is done. When we have to finish a project for work, again, we work on it for a certain period of time and then it is over; delivered, finished.

Motivation is a different cookie, though. We need it to be there when it is time to go to the gym, we need it to be there when we have to finish the project, and we need it to be there when our children still can't spell "electricity", after practicing for weeks. In my view, that always-needed presence of motivation is the reason people are so interested in having it.

3 Main Components of Motivation

The 3 main components of motivation are:
1.) Direction
2.) Effort
3.) Persistence

Out of these 3 components, persistence is perhaps the one people struggle with the most. Usually, when we decide on something, we have our direction; we know where we want to go. Effort is individual and for a certain period of time we are prepared to really give it our all. However, after a while even the most motivated of us start to feel less enthusiastic and often, in the end, we give up, especially if things don't happen fast enough.

This is when the role of persistence is so important. Those who keep going after their goal or desire are usually those who, in the end, achieve it. The road to it might have been uphill but the victory is so much sweeter as a result. Consider this next time you are about to give up your efforts - the results might be just round the corner. It would be a pity to leave them there and not reach out for them. With a bit of good old persistence, you can do it without too much hassle.

Once you realize what you are good at, then it is time for you to capitalize on your efforts. You can be known as an expert in your industry by writing books, articles, columns and newsletters. Everything you do will develop your talents and increase your chances to succeed.

For example my father in law is a trained carpenter where he uses his talents to fix doors, and build houses while making sure people live in a comfortable environment. You can have a natural or trained ability that can lead you to start businesses, build careers or change lives.

You are reading this article because of networking. I was on-line networking while reading Robert Lee's profile. I saw that he was a Director of Events. I sent him a message and we began to discuss opportunities on how we could work together in the future. After trading contact information one of the results was an opportunity to speak at an event he put together.

No matter where you come from there is an opportunity inside you that is waiting to come out. Find out what you can do and become great at it. On your way to the top don't forget about others who can also benefit from networking with you.

We all have the skills to pay the bills. I hope you figure out "How To Use Your Skills" because my slogan is "Use Your Skills or Someone Else Will".

Five Basic Needs, Motivation and Visualization

Do you know what human being need so that we can be alive? What motivate us most? Why do we do a certain thing? What are the key elements that move us toward the things we want? We will understand this more when we learn about human basic needs.

The most known theory on the needs of human being is perhaps the theory laid out by Abraham Harold Maslow, 1908-1970, American psychologist and philosopher. His needs hierarchy theory is known under the name of self-actualization theory of psychology. The theory opened the new era of psychotherapy. The theory strongly suggests that the goal of psychotherapy should be the integration of the "self".

According to Encyclopedia Britanica, Maslow studied psychology at the University of Wisconsin and Gestalt psychology at the New School for Social Research in New York City. He later joined the faculty of Brooklyn College in 1937. In 1951 he became head of the psychology department at Brandeis University (Waltham, Massachusetts), where he remained until 1969. Influenced by existentialist philosophers and literary figures, Maslow was an important contributor in the United States to humanistic psychology, which is sometimes called the "third force."

Five Basic Needs, Motivation and Visualization

Maslow argued on his work "Motivation and Personality" that each person has a hierarchy of needs that must be satisfied. The needs include physiological needs, safety needs, needs for love, needs for self esteem and needs for self actualization. All five needs can be explained as follows:

1 Physiological need: Man needs foods, shelter, sex, heat, water, air, and cloth. These basic elements are commonly known to be essential for being alive. There will be no progress in other areas of life if these needs have not yet to be fulfilled.

2 Safety need: Human being wants security in life. He wants to be safe from all dangers and want to make sure that he can carry on our life without any uncertainty.

3 Love and relationship need: Man wants to be loved and want to be related to others. We can not live alone and need to be recognized by our love ones. The need for love is so strong that it is the major mold of character in the childhood and it is the major ingredient that shape human life in psychological theory.

4 Self esteem need: This level of needs is understood to be for inner fulfillment. Man wants to know that he is important. Besides he wants to feel that sense of importance through himself. This is why it is called "Self esteem".

5 Self actualization need: The highest level of needs requires human being to understand himself and see the value in his self. He tries to find himself through religion and his spiritual guidance. This is the area that is most meaningful in human being's life.

The first two levels are more on the physical side. The later three are more on the emotional value. As each need is satisfied, the next higher level in the emotional hierarchy dominates conscious functioning. Maslow believed that truly healthy people were self-actualizers because they satisfied the highest psychological needs, fully integrating the components of their personality. The area can have the strongest force of motivation if used correctly. Understanding the need hierarchy can help us know how to use the right motivation techniques to ourselves and to others.

Motivation is a complex topic that spans virtually all areas of psychology. No one theory is capable of explaining all that we know about motivational processes. Some motives such as hunger, thirst, and sexual activity seem best understood from a biological viewpoint. Other motives appear to be learned, and such motives help to account for the diversity and complexity of human activities. Still other motives are influenced by the cognitive processes in which we engage. Our interpretation of the events around us influences our future motivations.

Visualize ourselves fulfills all above needs will enable us to be closer to what we want in life. This will attract the circumstance and attributes we need. Visualization will make our achievement more possible and a lot easier according to the law of attraction.

Maslow Theory of Motivation - The Basis of Successful Change Management

The Maslow Theory of Motivation also known as "Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs" model was developed between 1943-1954, and first widely published in "Motivation and Personality" in 1954. Starting from the premise that each human being is motivated by needs that are inborn, presumably as a result of tens of thousands of years of evolution, here is the hierarchy in ascending order:

(1) Physiological needs

These are the very basic needs such as air, water, food, sleep, sex, etc. When these are not satisfied we may feel sickness, irritation, pain, discomfort, etc. These feelings motivate us to alleviate them as soon as possible to establish homeostasis. Once they are alleviated, we may think about other things.

Maslow Theory of Motivation - The Basis of Successful Change Management

(2) Safety needs

These have to do with establishing stability and consistency in a chaotic world. These needs are mostly psychological in nature. We need the security of a home and family. However, if a family is dysfunction, i.e., an abused child - cannot move to the next level as she is continuously fearful for her safety. Love and a sense of belonging are postponed until she feel safe.

(3) Love and needs of belonging

Humans have [in varying degrees of intensity] a strong desire to affiliate by joining groups such as societies, clubs, professional associations, churches and religious groups etc. There is a universal need to feel love and acceptance by others.

(4) Self-Esteem needs

There are essentially two types of esteem needs: self-esteem resulting from competence or mastery of a task; and the esteem and good opinion of other people.

(5) The need for self-actualisation

Maslow theory of motivation proposes that people who have all their "lower order" needs met progress towards the fulfilment their potential. Typically this can include the pursuit of knowledge, peace, esthetic experiences, self-fulfillment, oneness with God, nirvana, enlightenment etc. So ultimately this is all to do with the desire for self transcendence.

A paradigm shift that forms the basis for good leadership and successful change management

The Maslow theory of motivation brought a new face to the study of human behaviour. Maslow was inspired by greatness in the minds of others, and his own special contribution to the field of motivational psychology led to the creation of the concept of Humanistic Psychology. Most psychologists prior to Maslow had focused on the mentally ill and the abnormal. In complete contrast the Maslow theory of motivation investigated and attempted to define positive mental health.

In so doing, he instigated a paradigm shift via Humanistic Psychology - predicated on the belief that humans are not simply blindly reacting to situations, but trying to accomplish something greater. This new approach represented in the Maslow theory of motivation became the source of many new and different therapies, all grounded in the belief that people possess the inner resources for growth and healing and that the point of therapy is to help remove obstacles to individuals' achieving them.

It also forms the basis of much current understanding of what constitutes good leadership and forms a major foundation of prevailing models and theories of successful change management. The most fundamental value of this theory is to emphasise and remind those of us involved in leading and managing change of the complexity and multi-facted nature of human needs and motivational drives. Closely aligned to that observation is the difficult realisation that people have transcendent needs and aspirations as well as the more prosaic needs of survival and "pay and rations".

Very Easy Ukulele Songs - Motivation For Beginners

I have only been playing ukulele for about the past 3 months and I learned a few number of songs. The strumming patterns is a little different but you can still hear the flow of the song. The songs that I learned was Airplanes, Drop Baby Drop, Ehu Girl, Count On Me, I'm Yours and some more that I can't name but it doesn't matter. If you think that it's hard learning ukulele, just see what kind of songs I have learned.

All you have to do is practice. Did you think it would be that easy to learn a song? It does take a little work but I might say, play at least 1 hour a day. Maybe less if you're busy. I might say that the easiest song I learned was Drop Baby Drop because the chords are pretty simple. All you just have to do is learn how to bar chord. Once you got that down you pretty much know the whole song. I will try to explain the strumming pattern for you. It's simple.

First learn the tempo by hearing the music on a site. You might actually get the strumming down just by listening to the music. It is hard to explain but I'll try. Down, Scratched Down, Up Down Up Down and it repeats. Or something like that, it might be easier just searching the music at YouTube or any music site.

I guess you can say that this is a success story and it's telling you that you can do it do. But you can all you have to do is believe in yourself. Like I didn't think I could play when I first started but I looked around the internet and found easy songs. So look for easy songs and you might actually get ahead and play harder songs. Go for it!

Tattoos and Motivation - Why Do People Get Tattoos?

With ink appearing on everyone and anyone it becomes a common question as to why do people get tattoos? What exactly is it that motivates us to modify our bodies and inject ourselves with ink in a rather painful manner? What exactly is it that causes us to approach complete strangers and allow them to permanently place their artwork upon our bodies for life? Of course the reasoning will vary from person to person but here are some of the most common reasons why people get tattoos.

Some get tattoos simply as a form of self expression and the rebellion of society. We get them to show off who we are and what we stand for. We get them to show the world that we are who we are no mater what they think or what they expect from us.

Motivation

We get our ink to show our affiliations and connections. This doesn't have to be gang related or anything of the sort. For some it is the affiliation to the Marines or something we are very proud to be apart of, others it is simply a sign of their family and who they belong to and love.

Tattoos and Motivation - Why Do People Get Tattoos?

Some of us get tattoos simply because it is something we want to do and something we want to endure. Our reasons are as simple as we have gotten our first ink and became addicted. Getting tattooed is an addictive habit. And once addicted and bitten we go back for more ink. And that can be the simple reason behind getting the ink.

Some choose to get their ink to show off what has happened in their lives, to recall everything that has happened in their lives. This is the case of prisoners who have their entires stories tattooed upon their bodies. For those without ink are said to have never lived or existed.
