Our self-esteem is very dependent on factors within our environment. It is formed as a result of our years of experiences (especially the early ones). It could be said that one's eyes and ears record the messages they receive from others, especially those most important to them. Because one's unconscious accepts all words and emotions as facts no matter how legitimate or based in reality, one's self-esteem is being continuously constructed and reconstructed by what is encountered in the mirror of others verbal and nonverbal messages.

15. INTRODUCTION
Motivation is derived from the word
‘motive’ which means needs, desires,
wants or drives within the individuals. It
is the process of stimulating people to
actions and to accomplish the goals.

16. WHAT IS

17. It is the inner power that pushes you toward
taking action and toward achievement.
Motivation is powered by desire and ambition,
and therefore, if they are absent, motivation is
absent too.
Sometimes, you might have the desire to get
something done, or to achieve a certain goal,
but if the desire and ambition are not strong
enough, you lack the push, the initiative, and
the willingness to take the necessary action. In
these cases, you are lack of motivation and
inner drive.

18. When there
is
motivation,
there is;
initiative
and
direction,
courage,
energy, and
the
persistence
to follow
your goals.

19. A motivated person takes action and does whatever it
needs to achieve his or her goals.
Motivation becomes strong, when you have a vision, a
clear mental image of what you want to achieve, and
also a strong desire to manifest it. In such a
situation, motivation awakens inner strength and
power, and pushes you forward, toward making your
vision a reality.
Motivation is present, whenever there is a clear
vision, precise knowledge of what you want to do, a
strong desire, and faith in your abilities.

20. MOTIVATION IS ONE OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT KEYS TO SUCCESS.
When there is lack of motivation, you either get no results, or only
mediocre ones, whereas, when there is motivation, you attain
greater and better results and achievements.
Compare a student who lacks motivation and who hardly studies,
to a student who is highly motivated, and who devotes many hours
to his studies. Each student will get absolutely different grades.
Lack of motivation means lack of enthusiasm, zest and ambition,
whereas the possession of motivation is a sign of strong desire,
energy and enthusiasm, and the willingness to do whatever it takes
to achieve what one sets out to do.
A motivated person is a happier person, more energetic, and sees
the positive end result in his or her mind.

21. HOWTOMOTIVATEYOURSELF–SELF
MOTIVATION
The key is
understandin
g your
thoughts and
how they
drive your
emotions. By
learning how
to nurture
motivating
thoughts,
neutralize
negative ones,
and focus on
the task at
hand, you can
pull yourself
out of a slump
before it gains
momentum.
“Do not dilute the truth of your potential. We often
convince ourselves that we cannot change, that we
cannot overcome the circumstances of our lives.
That is simply not true. You have been blessed
with immeasurable power to make positive
changes in your life. But you can’t just wish it, you
can’t just hope it, you can’t just want it.
You have to live it, be it and do it"

22. HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF – SELF
MOTIVATION
Self-motivation is the force that drives you to do things.
Thus, it is right to state that self-motivation is a constant
need for every individual. However, the means and modes or
attaining self-motivation may vary from individual to
individual. They depend largely on age and characteristics of
a person. The root for each of them would lie in the
enjoyment experienced in performing the task. It is also
important to always keep in mind how pleasurable the
results will be.
Self-motivation is a complex phenomenon involving a lot of
variables to take into account. It is a diverse subject and has
proved beneficial as a self driving technique for improving
performance. It has proved significantly crucial for ones
performance especially at the workplace.

23. Staying motivated is a struggle - our drive is constantly
assaulted by negative thoughts and anxiety about the
future. Everyone faces doubt and depression. What
separates the highly successful is the ability to keep
moving forward.
There is no simple solution for a lack of motivation.
Even after beating it, the problem reappears at the first
sign of failure. The key is understanding your thoughts
and how they drive your emotions. By learning how to
nurture motivating thoughts, neutralize negative ones,
and focus on the task at hand, you can pull yourself out
of a slump before it gains momentum.

24. REASONS WE LOSE MOTIVATION
 Lack of confidence – If you
don’t believe you can succeed,
what’s the point in trying?
 Lack of focus – If you don’t
know what you want, do you
really want anything?
 Lack of direction – If you
don’t know what to do, how can
you be motivated to do it?
There are 3 primary reasons we lose motivation.

25. HOWTOBOOST
CONFIDENCE

26. HOW TO BOOST CONFIDENCE
The first motivation killer is a lack of confidence. this
happens When you only think about what you want,
your mind creates explanations for why you aren’t
getting it. This creates negative thoughts. Past failures,
bad breaks, and personal weaknesses dominate your
mind. You become jealous of your competitors and start
making excuses for why you can’t succeed. In this state,
you tend to make a bad impression, assume the worst
about others, and lose self confidence.
The way to get out of this thought pattern is to focus on
gratitude. Set aside time to focus on everything positive
in your life.

27. Make a mental list of your strengths, past successes, and
current advantages. We tend to take our strengths for
granted and dwell on our failures. By making an effort to
feel grateful, you’ll realize how competent and successful
you already are. This will rejuvenate your confidence and
get you motivated to build on your current success.
It might sound strange that repeating things you already
know can improve your mindset, but it’s amazingly
effective. The mind distorts reality to confirm what it
wants to believe. The more negatively you think, the more
examples your mind will discover to confirm that belief.
When you truly believe that you deserve success, your
mind will generate ways to achieve it. The best way to
bring success to yourself is to genuinely desire to create
value for the rest of the world.

28. DEVELOPING TANGIBLE FOCUS
The second motivation killer is a lack of focus. How often do
you focus on what you don’t want, rather than on a concrete
goal? We normally think in terms of fear. I’m afraid of being
poor. I’m afraid no one will respect me. I’m afraid of being
alone. The problem with this type of thinking is that fear
alone isn’t actionable. Instead of doing something about our
fear, it feeds on itself and drains our motivation.
By focusing your mind on a positive goal instead of an
ambiguous fear, you put your brain to work. It instantly
begins devising a plan for success. Instead of worrying about
the future you start to do something about it. This is the first
step in motivating yourself to take action. When you know
what you want, you become motivated to take action.

29. DEVELOPING DIRECTION
The final piece in the motivational puzzle is direction. If focus
means having an ultimate goal, direction is having a day-to-day
strategy to achieve it. A lack of direction kills motivation because
without an obvious next action we succumb to procrastination. The
key to finding direction is identifying the activities that lead to
success. For every goal, there are activities that pay off and those
that don’t. Make a list of all your activities and arrange them based
on results. Then make a make an action plan that focuses on the
activities that lead to big returns.
Keeping track of your most important tasks will direct your energy
towards success. Without a constant reminder, It’s inevitable that
you’ll encounter periods of low energy, bad luck, and even the
occasional failure. If you don’t discipline your mind, these minor
speed bumps can turn into mental monsters. By being on guard
against the top 3 motivation killers you can preserve your
motivation and propel yourself to success.

30. SELFMOTIVATION
Self-
motivation
among the
employees
is not only
important
for the
growth of
the
employee
himself but
is also a
significant
element for
a company’s
growth.

31. SELF-MOTIVATION AMONG THE EMPLOYEES IS NOT
ONLY IMPORTANT FOR THE GROWTH OF THE
EMPLOYEE HIMSELF BUT IS ALSO A SIGNIFICANT
ELEMENT FOR A COMPANY’S GROWTH.
 Your contribution will lead to the growth
of the company
 You are a part of the company, the
company’s growth means your growth
 You are responsible for your work which
will judge not only your performance but
also the company’s as a whole
 You will be awarded for all your
endeavors
Therefore, every time one feels lacking enthusiasm to
complete a task, the following points can be useful:

32. CONCLUSION
Self-motivation doesn't come naturally to everyone. And even
those who are highly self-motivated need some extra help every
now and then.
Build your self-motivation by practicing goal-setting skills, and
combining those with positive thinking, the creation of powerful
visions of success, and the building of high levels of self-efficacy
and self-confidence.
Your attitude and beliefs about your likelihood of success can
predict whether or not you actually succeed. Set goals, and work
hard to achieve them. Examine ways to improve your self-
motivation, and regularly reassess your motivation levels. If you
actively keep your internal motivation high, you can
significantly increase the likelihood of achieving your hopes,
dreams, and visions of the future.
