Always Be Grateful For Everything
This is the most powerful emotional state of mind that people can have, that is be grateful. Always be grateful for the love you receive from your family, your friends, your colleagues. Thank them in some way. Treat them a meal, buy them a gift, just give them a word of greeting, or just give them a prayer in your heart. Be grateful to yourself, to your body. Say thanks to your feet for supporting you for such a long time, say thanks to your eyes for letting you see the beauty of this world, say thanks to your ears for giving you the beautiful sounds of the universe. Say thank you to every part of your body.
If you do this, you will feel gratitude all the time, you will feel a source of energy flowing through your body. You will feel energize and motivated. If you are reading this article right now, you are probably reading it with a computer. This means that you are in the category of 70% rich man in the world. If you were born with great physical outfit, then you should be grateful for your body. When you are down and sad, just think of other people who are even more worse than you. Some people always said that they don’t have a car, and only if they have a car, they can travel anywhere to run their business and they can succeed. Is this true? No! Not at all. Some people don’t even have a motorcycle, but still they succeed because they have the burning desire.

Whenever you are down, think about what you have around you. Did you know that you are actually a very rich man if compare to people 100 years ago? Did you know that with all the information you receive from the internet in just one day, is much more than the entire life of a person 100 years ago? Don’t complain that you have living a lousy life, don’t complain that if you are not having a car or a job. Just be grateful of everything you have. Once you always be thankful to what you have, you will feel that energy start flowing into your body. You will feel energize and you will be motivated. You want to do more and you will provide more, give more. In the end, you will receive what you want the most.
In fact, if you were born with everything, you will lose the hunger for success. If you were born in a billionaire family, most likely you will lose the hunger to create more wealth. This is because you already have everything you wanted, and this makes you lost the hunger for success. That is why most of the self-made Millionaires start from zero, just like you and me, we are future millionaires.

ALWAYS be GRATEFUL and things will happen
To write here every single thing that has
happened to me in my life would be impossible. So I will just say this - BE
GRATEFUL FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE. I know that some days (or some years) it may
look like you have nothing, but trust me.... you always have something. A
friend, a smile from a stranger, a coffee maker that you rush to every morning
to bring you the smell of the day to come.
I have always known when things would happen for me because those were the things that I would FEEL the most joy about (even if I was still waiting for them to manifest). The idea of not having it would make me feel empty. So I learned to trust my feelings. If I felt happy thinking about it then it was so much easier to be grateful for it.
It's easy to get wrapped up in day to day life, but trust (no not me but yourself) that if you stop for 10 seconds to think of one thing that brings you a smile you will feel better about your life and attract the right thing for you.

4-Step Guide to Discovering Who You're Meant to Be
Forging Ahead
As you move toward your goal, make sure to fill every possible step with the rewards that motivate you best.
If you crave Connection, look for mentors who can guide you, a group that can support you, and ways to get your family involved in your activities. Say your goal is learning to knit: Find out if there's a knitting circle at your local yarn store; join ravelry.com, a social network for needlework aficionados; try to get your mother or daughter to learn alongside you.
If Security is what drives you, avoid risks and embrace structure so you can relax and enjoy what you're doing, feeling safe and worry-free. If your goal is doing yoga but the cost of classes stresses you out, offer to assist the teacher before class in exchange for free lessons. If you long to travel, start with all-inclusive packages that take care of the details for you.
If you're motivated by a need for Accomplishment, try to make everything a game in which you can shoot for a clear goal and compete, even if you're only competing with yourself. If your goal is writing poetry, start taking part in poetry slams. If your goal is becoming fluent in Chinese, enlist a like-minded buddy and see who can get through language-learning software with the highest score.
If you're an Influence lover, don't hesitate to set group goals and galvanize others to help you achieve them. Why just volunteer to help famine victims in Somalia when you can organize a fund-raiser yourself? Why just master a new skill—whether it's composting or woodcarving—when you can launch a blog that tells others how they can do it, too? Waiting for other people to set the agenda will only frustrate you. Leadership will fulfill you.
If you're most engaged by the quest for Enlightenment, don't put yourself in situations that compromise your sense of freedom: getting in shape by joining a fierce "boot camp" class at your gym, plowing through a book you don't like because everyone else in your club is reading it. Instead, devote yourself to meaningful pursuits—taking self-guided nature hikes, perhaps, or cooking mindfully with plants you've grown yourself. Everything you do can fuel your sense of inner awakening, and when it does, you'll be up and running.

Reality-Check Your Goal
Write down the goal you created with your friend in Step 2.
Now, in light of your primary motivation style(s), reconsider this goal. How well does it correspond to the type of rewards and incentives you need?
You may find that your goal doesn't match your inner drive: You'd love to row across the Atlantic solo, say, but you're driven by Connection. Maybe in choosing, you were unconsciously influenced by other people's opinions, or by your own sense of what constitutes a "worthwhile" way to spend your time. Whatever the reason, if your goal simply doesn't match your heart's desires, now is the time to choose again. Go back and look at the second and third passions you identified in Step 1, and revisit your strengths in Step 2. Aligning your ambitions with your true personality is an important part of staying healthy, resilient, and enthusiastic.
Of course, there are also goals that seem an unlikely fit for a given motivation style but can be tweaked to give you more of the incentive you need. For example, if your goal is running a marathon but your motivation preference is Enlightenment, you could turn your training into "running meditation." If you're an Accomplishment junkie and you want to help victims of domestic violence, you could propose a specific goal-oriented project at a local shelter, or have two teams of volunteers compete to collect the most donations.
Even if your goal is well aligned with your motivation style, you can probably amp it up. For example, if you value Connection and your goal involves saving oily seabirds from tanker accidents, can you bring your loved ones together to bond with you on a mercy mission? If you thrive on Influence and your goal involves working for civil rights, can you initiate a social-media outreach plan as part of the project?
If you're a Connection lover, ask yourself: How could I add more social interaction to my goal?
If you're a Security lover, ask yourself: How could I add more financial rewards to my goal?
If you're an Influence lover, ask yourself: How could I add more leadership to my goal?
If you're an Accomplishment lover, ask yourself: How could I add more competition to my goal?
If you're an Enlightenment lover, ask yourself: How could I add more freedom to my goal?
Restate your goal here, modifying it to increase the reward that motivates you most.

3. Tap Your Motivation
Having a goal is great. But as Martha Beck can tell you, making sure you have the incentive to stick with it is even better.
Now that you've framed your passion as a goal, it's time to think about what you'll need to stay passionate as you pursue it. Everyone has innate preferences for certain kinds of experience. Some people live to connect socially, others crave moments of personal insight, while still others thrive on the feeling of being the best. Whatever drives you, if you act in accordance with that drive as you move toward your goals, you'll tend to stay on track. If there's a disconnect, you're far more likely to find reasons to lose interest.
This part of our workbook will help you figure out, motivation-wise, what makes you tick. That insight will, in turn, help you reassess the feasibility of your goal. Think of it as a reality check for your dreams.

2. Take Stock of Your Strengths
Identifying your true talents isn't always easy. The trick: Let someone else do it for you.
How often have you gotten a compliment on your creativity or your patience or your resilience, only to wave it off, assuming that these strengths must come easily to everyone? In my 30 years as a lifestyle/career coach and author, the mistake I see people make time and again is failing to recognize their talents. An honest inventory may be difficult—even impossible—for you to do yourself. So sit with a friend and try this exercise. It's a new twist on something I call the Self-Correcting Life Scenario, and it's one of my favorites.—Barbara Sher

4-Step Guide to Discovering Who You're Meant to Be
It's about figuring out what you're great at, what it takes to keep you moving forward, and exactly what you need to succeed.
1. Find Your Passion
The first part of figuring out how you want to spend your one and only life: identifying the activities that make you light up—the things you love to do more than anything else. Use this exercise to zero in on them.
Try it now: Print this
Got your list? Great. Now whittle it down.
Ask yourself, If I had to choose between the first activity and the second, which is more appealing to me? If you get stuck, close your eyes and envision a life in which the first activity plays a major role and the second doesn't exist. Now envision a life in which the second activity plays a major role and the first doesn't exist. Which image feels better? Once you have your answer, put your finger on the winner and compare that choice with the third activity.
Repeat this exercise all the way around the loop, moving your finger to the winning activity after each comparison; when you complete the loop, your finger will be on your number one passion. Write that activity at the top of the list below, and draw an X over the activity in the loop. Now repeat this process four more times (always starting from the top), and each time, skip the X-ed out activities.
You've just found your top five passions.

10. Ensure that your innermost beliefs support, enhance, and further your goals
What do you believe about yourself and your chances of reaching your goals? Do you believe that you can reach them? Will it be easy or hard? Can you do it alone or will you need help? Will reaching your goal be good for you or not? Beliefs are a key part of your ability to reach your goals. Pause now, and re-affirm your belief in yourself. Take that sense of security and confidence and start again. This will enable you to successfully accomplish any job you set before yourself.

9. Attach positive values to each of your tasks
If you have to clean up the kitchen, realize that the accomplishment of the project will make you feel good about where you live. If you have to write a business proposal, associate it with making more money and gaining financial security. If you have to call a friend to discuss an uncomfortable situation, think of the call as a means of gaining courage, reducing stress, and building greater trust.

8. Set Goals That Move & Inspire You
There are no unmotivated people, only unchallenging goals. Make your goals believable and exciting - and make sure that they challenge you without discouraging you. Set goals for health and vitality, and for improving relationships and character. Lackluster goals will remain on the shelf like a bad book. But powerful goals will ignite your hottest fires so that you get them done...now!

6. Always Create a "Plan B"
Even if you totally expect to succeed, have a back-up-plan. What will you do if things don't fall into place? If others don't come through? If you get sick? If the weather become horrible? With an alternate plan you can relax in the knowledge that even in the worst case, you'll be all right.

5. Troubleshoot Your Task
Analyse up front any potential blocks, hazards, or uncertainties. What possible negative factors will arise? Lack of support, technical knowledge, time, physical space, energy, money, or experience can all make a task seem daunting. Handle as many of these obstacles as early as possible. Then you will feel much more positive about your chances for success and you will dive into the task at hand.

May The Joy Be With You
Pure love has no conditions or boundaries. Love does not restrain itself or hold back. Love gives all the time and doesn't ask for anything in return. Love is a continues flow without any limits. And all of this is inside you.

3. Give Yourself an Extra Month Each Year To Reach Your Goals
To get it, simply eliminate the false tyrannical mindset of "not enough time". Get up an extra half-hour early, or go to bed a half-hour later each night. (When you exercise better, eat better, and have positive reinforcing thoughts, you may find you can do with a half-hour less sleep!). Use that time to either work on your goal or on yourself. It may not be much time in and of itself, but it sure adds up. A half-hour extra, six days a week, is three hours a week. That's 166 extra hours or more than four forty-hour work weeks extra per year!
