Beat the odds, stay motivated
by Vishnupreetham
-
 Gain clarity
Working without really knowing where you want to get and what you hope to achieve is no strategy at all. When you are clear about what you want, half the battle is won.
-
 Decide a plan of action
After you know where you want to get, your next course of action should be to figure out how to get there. Chart out a complete plan of action.
-
 Stay connected
Whether it is your need to achieve your goals or the end result that you're working towards, keep things in perspective as much as possible. Whatever happens don't lose sight of the things that are important to you.
-
 Reward yourself
Everyone likes gifts and rewards. So when you decide on a goal, also decide on the rewards that you plan to give yourself as an incentive. This would sure keep you motivated to get what you want.
-
 Bask in your success
Every little milestone you cross is a success on its own. So take time to celebrate it. The more you appreciate even the smallest of successes, the more sweeter will the final achievement be.
-
 Outperform
Fine, you've made up your mind on what you want, but that does not mean that you should be happy with just getting there. Do more than necessary and you'll be surprised how much better the outcome will be.
-
 Maintain work-life balance
A lot of times people forget that they have a life outside work. Take time out to do all that you like doing. Spend time with your family, friends, read a book, paint, do some gardening, play a sport, well, do just about anything that will make you happy and see that happiness translating to your work.
-
 Think positive
It's human to wallow in self pity and take the negative route when things fail. But learn to snap out of it as quickly as you jump into the well of hopelessness and distress. When you start feeling down, just listen to music or watch something that inspires you. You can even pick up an inspiring book or speech. Or if you have access to none of this, just spend some time reading inspiring and motivating quotes. No matter what happens, stay positive.
-
 Believe in yourself
When things seem to be falling apart this is the last thing that you would feel. But trust is a strong feeling, and a great motivator. So start your day not just by saying you can do it but strongly believing that you can.
