If you constantly switch from one thing to another, if your ambition to go to the gym lasts no more than a week, and if you have a list of on-line courses you\u2019d like to take, first of all you need to consider your real needs. Your needs determine the level of your motivation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s all nice and clear when we talk about our basic needs. A person feels hungry \u2014 so they go to eat. Such motivation does not require any additional reinforcement and does not depend on the person\u2019s mood or state, that\u2019s why it is called \u2018stable motivation\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less basic needs are not that urgent. We won\u2019t rush looking for knowledge or communication the way we would go looking for food. Motivation to meet these needs is described as \u2018unstable motivation\u2019, and we need to sustain it, just like fire in a fireplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may lack motivation at a particular moment, because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 you’re setting the wrong goal (you don’t want to lose weight for yourself, you want to do it because your boyfriend thinks you should);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 you don’t have enough energy;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 your environment imposes certain habits and lifestyle that you would like to leave behind (it’s hard to eat healthy if you go to fast food places with your friends every week);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 fear and perfectionism are your \u2018BFFs\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start by recognizing what is actually hindering you. After that, you can make a plan: set a goal, find support for your decision, and consider the steps you are taking to achieve it.<\/p>\n\n\n

In order to sustain \u2018unstable\u2019 motivation, you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Understand what kind of need is behind your specific goal<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t just tell yourself you\u2019ll be going to the gym starting from Monday; set your mind to do it twice a week and go for a walk every day, because your body needs movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Maintain self-discipline<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a set of skills that make you do what you’re supposed to do, even when you don’t really want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give yourself time to adapt to the changes in your life. If you are introducing a good habit, don\u2019t expect that it will become regular overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Get perfectionism out of your head<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s always better to take a small step forward than to stand still.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And don\u2019t forget to pat yourself on the back!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/br>
