Intrinsic Motivation

To be a success, motivation is a very important recipe one must posses. No one has ever reached a worthy goal/aspiration without having one form of motivation or another. One can derive motivation in various ways; from people who have reached the same goal you are seeking,nature(sometimes we get to see how the flowers persevere through the summer to come into full bloom in summer) ,animals(you might want to be a very loyal person to your friend like the dog is to men), personalities e.t.c are all source of motivation. If it pushes you towards your dream, if its is the reason you resolve to try harder, its your motivation. But the best kind of motivation you could posses is a kind of motivation that is influenced from your inner self.

Self motivation is the ability to do what needs to be done without any external influence. The ability to stick to your goal even when there is no external encouragement. Anyone who posses this ability can stand through tough times. There are times when the external motivators won't have any effect on you, it is only the people with self motivation that never give up at this point. Anyone who has read 'Gifted Hands' by Dr. Benjamin Carson will recall that he was advised to give up on medicine when he was in his Pre-Med program
at Yale University. At this point, his mothers influence on him was exhausted. it was
self motivation that kept him on and he went on to become one of the best neurosurgeon of all times. There is no limit to where you can reach with self motivation

There are times when you will have to stand alone.The path to success is not a crowded one. In fact, it is the only path that is seldom travelled by man. It is only your inner motivation that can see you through. Always put it in
mind that the path to success is not an highway of free-ride, it is a rough walkway Full of thorns and ropes. You will be bruised, beaten and shamed by failures.This is the point your self motivation drive you on.

There is nothing that breeds self motivation like a clearly defined dream. Map out your dream. Identify your obstacles, make provisions for unforeseen situations.but let the end result take the biggest picturein your mind. With the help of God, there will be nothing that will stand between you and success.
