• Achieve your Dreams - the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty
of their dreams.
• Believe in your self, and in what you can do.
• Consider things on every angle and aspect. Motivation comes from
determination. To be able to understand life, you should feel the sun from both
sides.
• Don’t give in and don’t give up. Thomas Edison failed once, twice, more
than thrice before he came up with his invention and perfected the incandescent
light bulb. Make motivation as your steering wheel.
Motivation – Heart of self improvement

46. Motivation – Heart of self improvement
• Enjoy. Work as if you don’t need money. Dance as if nobody’s watching.
Love as if you never cried. Learn as if you’ll live forever. Motivation takes
place when people are happy.
• Family and Friends – are life’s greatest ‘F’ treasures. Don’t loose sight
of them.
• Give more than what is enough. Where does motivation and self-
improvement take place at work? At home? At school? When you exert
extra effort in doing things.
• Hang on to your dreams. They may dangle in there for a moment, but
these little stars will be your driving force.

47. Motivation – Heart of self improvement
• Ignore those who try to destroy you. Don’t let other people to get
the best of you. Stay out of toxic people – the kind of friends who hates to
hear about your success.
• Just be yourself. The key to success is to be yourself. And the key to
failure is to try to please everyone.

motivated, eventually he sees a harsh life finally clearing out, paving the
way to self-improvement.

• Make things happen. Motivation is when your dreams are put into work
clothes.

sense. They see things in 2 ways – how they want things to be, and how
they should be.
• Practice makes perfect. Practice is about motivation. It lets us learn
repertoire and ways on how can we recover from our mistakes.
• Quitters never win. And winners never quit. So, choose your fate – are
you going to be a quitter? Or a winner?
• Ready yourself. Motivation is also about preparation. We must hear the
little voice within us telling us to get started before others will get on their
feet and try to push us around. Remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah
build the ark.
Motivation – Heart of self improvement

49. • Stop procrastinating!
• Take control of your life. Discipline or self control jives
synonymously with motivation. Both are key factors in self-
improvement.
• Understand others. If you know very well how to talk, you
should also learn how to listen. Yearn to understand first, and to
be understood the second.
• Visualize it. Motivation without vision is like a boat on a dry land.
• Want it more than anything. Dreaming means believing. And
to believe is something that is rooted out from the roots of
motivation and self-improvement.
Motivation – Heart of self improvement

50. Motivation – Heart of self improvement
• X Factor is what will make you different from the
others. When you are motivated, you tend to put on “extras” on
your life like extra time for family, extra help at work, extra care
for friends, and so on.
• You are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like
you. Value your life and existence, because you’re just going to
spend it once.
• Zero in on your dreams and go for it!!!
