Motivation is the feeling that you have to create within yourself. Only you can motivate yourself throughout your life and this is a fact. Let me make this easy for you to understand. We often listen to others’ inspiring stories or watch something motivational and gain motivation. But we lose that motivation after some time. That’s called temporary motivation. But the motivation creates within us is permanent. It can be anything. It can be goal, specific reason, pain, or stubbornness. This kind of motivation always stays within us cause we are the ones who produce it. It makes us focus on our goals. That’s why we need it to always stay focused. So how to let your permanent motivation stay? Let’s check it out,

#Set your goal

#Always think about your goal and its maximum possiblities

#Track your progress

#Be consistent with your goal

#Do not skip even a single day

#If you need a break, take it but come back stronger

#Do not let others interfere between you and your goal

#Always try to improve

#Compete with yourself

#Do not compare yourself with others cause others having different lives and goals.

#Do not give up and work hard as possible

These are some tips that always help you to stay motivated.
