What Motivates You?
What Motivates You - Desire or Fear?
By Steve Brunkhorst
"The energy of desire is a powerful motivator and creative force. Yet we must state our desires clearly with the rewards of success in mind.
One of my recent clients had spent six years in a job where he felt unappreciated. Although he had the skills and experience to take other work, he was having trouble leaving his current position. While expressing his frustration, he kept saying, 'I can't stand this job!'
Desire and the energy it creates affect our intentions and actions. However, it is important to distinguish between desire motivation and fear motivation. We are either moving toward something we want, or, as my client was, away from something we do not want.
Fear motivation aims to protect and focuses on avoiding penalties for failure. It leads to feelings of inhibition (e.g., 'I can't') or compulsion (e.g., 'I have to.'). Desire motivation seeks rewards for success. It leads to volition (e.g., 'I can.') and propulsion (e.g., 'I want to.').
Not initially knowing where he would go next, my client was moving 'from' an undesired position, mistakenly motivated by penalties for perceived failure. Of course, he had not failed; his job had failed him. The way we express our feelings will shape our beliefs, intentions, and actions, often without our awareness.
My client's initial affirmation, 'I can't stand this job,' was working to keep him there. The mind is unable to focus on the reverse of an idea. It will delete a negative such as 'can't' and move directly to its dominant thought. What he had actually affirmed with strong emotion was, 'I stand this job!'
Filled with energetic dislike for his job, he had not only been affirming that he would continue to 'stand' his job. He had also intensified his unwanted staying power by mixing strong negative emotion with his words.
He went on to identify the position and job he wanted. Then he began to create statements focusing on rewards for moving to a satisfying and fulfilling position. Within two months, he had acquired a satisfying position with a new company, and, to his delight, an employer who regularly compliments him on his work.
Clearly focus on your desires each day. Ask yourself, 'What do I want, exactly?' 'What am I moving toward?' Allow your thoughts and words to move you toward your desires with faith in your God-given talents and potential.

Positive Thinking
Positive Thoughts to Make You Going Forward
What motivates a man? It can be compared to a person who is starved and hungry who will think of a way, drastic or not, just to find solution to his dillema. This came to my thoughts. Be good or bad, in what thoughts lie in the mind, people have made this world of ours. People want to conquer nations because the desire that was conceiving in their brain was born in their heart. But there are people to who will counter this by good motivating thoughts to overpower evil. So it is a battle of good and evil.
Everyday in our life as an individual we too encounter situations where at the end of the day it would tend to make us more strong willed to pursue our goal or just fade away because we were overtaken by that negative thought born out of that negative situation.
But I believe that if we hold on to positive ideas nothing in this world can ever destroy you as long as it is for the good of mankind. So I've compiled a few motivational quotes that I hope would inspire us. I hope to add and improve on this as days pass by.
