A lot of people think that they have to solely rely on their motivation, drive and ambition while they are striving to reach their goals.
While developing this self-reliance and responsibility is essential, you can definitely make your life easier by utilizing certain tools in the market available today.
Some of the most popular motivational tools you can use include simple things like using blogs, journals, online calendars and planners. All of these modern gadgets can help you stay on track, get yourself fired up and dominate your path when needed.
A blog or journal can be utilized to plan out your steps to reach your goal.
Keep a daily or weekly journal so that you can record your progress, accomplishments, struggles and emotions along the success process.
It's extremely helpful in tough times because you can read them as reference experience in case a similar situation occurs again.
Such habit of writing something every day is a healthy one because a life worth living is worth recording.
It's something valuable to do daily and you'll definitely be grateful for the growth opportunities you've had when you reflect them 5 years later.
Next, calendars and planners are also great tools that you can exploit.
There are lots of free apps that you can download to use, so you can access your diaries wherever you are.
There are even apps that incorporate more accountability and publicity where you can share your progress with the world in social media platforms.
If you dare to challenge your colleagues, friends or family members to do the same and compete with each other, it surely will help all participants achieve their weekly goals in a fun dynamic way.
The best motivational tool always depends on your current goals and personality.
If you love writing or want to train your writing skills simultaneously, set up a blog to record your progress.
If you prefer privacy, then just note down your things in a planner.
OR if you love to write but hate to share, then just private everything in your blog so that only you can see what you've put out there.
Don't forget that videos are fun great ways to record the ups and downs of your life.
I am so grateful that my parents used to film me a lot when I was a kid. These video tapes are such priceless treasures for me to savor the older version of myself and remind myself how far I have come.
You should definitely do the same and you'll feel deeply fulfilled when you re-watch them one day.
Finally, audio mp3s, DVDs or quotes are great way to motivate yourself, especially when you're driving to work.
Quotes can be placed anywhere in your house so that you can read them every day. They help reinforce your ideal version of yourself and remind yourself why you are working so hard.
Motivation comes and goes. So be strategic with developing your own arsenal of motivational tools so that you are always emotionally supported every day, every hour and even every minute.
