For Single Parents. Become Motivated - Take Action

Motivation is the force that leads people to take action. When you’re motivated, you do something. And that’s something that you do are tied to the pursuit of your goals. The goals that you choose and adopt reflect your feelings or emotional involvement with current circumstances and the hope that you can make things better for your self and your children.

Motivation comes from action that reflects your inner needs. You are motivated when you are dissatisfied and want to improve your situation.

Now, here are the three phrases of motivation;

1. Mapping Out Your Destination
On close examination, motivation flows through you in three phases. Consider the first phase as your goals.  Define your goals and your route plans – – your trip to your final destination. You need to evaluate and juggle information, sift through all the would-be objectives to determine which are the most beneficial; weigh all the potential risks; and, calculate all the possible outcomes until they lock in on the best goal under the circumstances.

2. Get Revved Up

Once you fix upon your goals or goal, you need to get revved up. You need to turn on the key, adjust the mirrors, and, third, hit the gas pedal. With the route map in hand and a full tank of gas, you need to hit the road.

3. Start Driving
Now, you will not be driving around aimlessly, you will be moving in a very specific, goal oriented direction. Moreover, when you form new goals, you begin a motivation cycle all over again. This can happen in a matter of seconds, over a long period of time, or anywhere in between. 

This mapping, revving up, and driving is the sequence that you have to go through no matter what goal you pursue and is fundamental for helping you to overcome setbacks.
