HOW DO I MOTIVATE MYSELF...

How do you motivate yourself, is a very big question.. 
Someday, in the years to come, you will be wrestling with the great temptation, or trembling under the great sorrow of your life.. But the real struggle is here, now... Now it is being decided whether, in the day of your supreme sorrow or temptation, you shall miserably fail or gloriously conquer.. Character cannot be made except by steady, long continued process.. 
The more you struggle to live, the less you live.. Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure.. As stars high above earth, you are above everything distressing..
But you must awaken to it.. So....Wake up!

You have to believe that you are the one who creates your success, that you are the one who creates your mediocrity, and that you are the one creating your struggle around money and success.. 
I have come to believe that there are only two kinds of experiences in life..:
Those that stem from our higher self and those that have something to teach us.. We recognize the first as pure joy and the latter as struggle.. But they are both perfect.. Each time we confront some intense difficulty, we know there is something we haven't learned yet, and the universe is now giving us the opportunity to learn..
All your life you are told the things you cannot do.. All your life people around you will say, you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this.. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless.. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly..
AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES..

Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir humans blood and probably themselves will not be realized.. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistence.. Nobody motivates anyone in today's world.. If it doesn't come from within, it doesn't come.. Fun helps remove the barriers that allow people to motivate themselves.. Make sure you visualize what you really want, not what someone else wants for you.. Any change, any loss, does not make us victims.. Others can shake you, surprise you, disappoint you, but they can't prevent you from acting, from taking the situation you're presented with and moving on.. No matter where you are in life, no matter what your situation is, you can always do something.. You always have a choice and the choice can be power of your mind.. 
I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Make it a habit, to repeat these words each hour, each day, everyday, until the words become as much a habit as your breathing, and the action which follows becomes as instinctive as the blinking of your eyelids.. With these words you can condition your mind to perform every action necessary for your success..

So start telling this to yourself....... 

"I will act now. I will repeat these words again and again and again.. I will walk where failures fear to walk.. I will work when failures seek rest.. I will act now for now is all I have.. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy.. I am not lazy.. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed.. I am not a failure.. I will act now.. Success will not wait.. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever.. This is the time.. This is the place.. I am the person"..

There's always the motivation of wanting to win. Everybody has that. But a champion needs, in his attitude, a motivation above and beyond winning..
