This is a question we ought to ask ourselves each time we wake up in the morning. Because our answer to this question determines how we will spend our time and what our lives will amount to.
That
very place we want to be, have we pictured ourselves there? do we have the
right drive or motivation to reach there? You want to be rich, you want to be able
to take your family on vacation to the nicest parts of the world, but the only
motivation you have is to be richer than that your friend that has multiple
properties. In life, everyone has their own race to run, so therefore, each
individual definitely has to have a different motivation.
Everybody
has an aspiration, we want to be this, we want to be that, but we don’t allow
this aspiration push us. You aspire to be a Medical Doctor; to save lives, but
you are fine and you settle for a job in the oil company. Of course you would
be wealthy, but you would also miss the feeling of self-fulfillment. Most
people let their aspirations and drives be cut off by setbacks, challenges and
failure. These are things that ordinarily are supposed to occur in life; they
are there to make us stronger not weaker.
Having
the right motivation helps one remain on track of whatever they are doing,
helps us make differential from good or bad decisions concerning our lives. It
is basically the best kind of guidance in life; we know what we want, when we
want it, and how to work towards it. We know the kind of friends to keep and
the kind of people to stay away from; those that can work with us towards
achieving our goals and also those that can deter us from realizing our
potentials.
So
please, let us identify the things we want out of life and work towards
achieving them, as there is no feeling like that of self-actualization.
Thank
you
