Get amazing short-term and long-term self motivation that will transform and inspire you to do great work. If you have projects to work on, and responsibilities on which you always seem to be procrastinating because you just can't seem to find the self motivation, this is the ideal course for you. This course will help you discover sources of long-term, intrinsic self-motivation. WHY MANY PEOPLE LACK MOTIVATION In my coaching practice, after having helped thousands of entrepreneurs, I noticed a common reason for their failure: they simply lacked self motivation to do the work to succeed. Why weren't they self motivated? It was often because they were simply working on the wrong kinds of businesses, or maybe starting a business wasn't even for them. Many people make the mistake of pursuing some random goals in life that they think are their strong goals, but those goals turn out to be false goals that are often given to them by others or by society's pressures. Of course, if you work on the wrong things, you won't find the right intrinsic motivation to stay excited about your work long term. This is why people often lack motivation. So in this self motivation course, I give you strategies to get short-term self motivation to start working today, and strategies to get long-term motivation to work passionately for years to come. Sign up for the course, and let's get you more motivated. Give yourself the gift of increased self motivation! LEARN TO FIND INTRINSIC MOTIVATION THAT NEVER STOPS Intrinsic motivation is a type of motivation that comes from inside you. Intrinsic motivation drives you from the moment you wake up until you go to sleep. You don't have to manufacture it. It's naturally there. You get intrinsic motivation by identifying the type of work that will be meaningful to you. And when you do meaningful work, you unlock natural and intrinsic motivation. HAVING INTRINSIC MOTIVATION WILL MAKE YOU HAPPIER When you have intrinsic self motivation helps you pursue different projects and your ambitions. That means you'll truly be working on what you love. And when you work on what you love for the rest of your life, it won't feel like work. It will be enjoyable. And your quality of life will be greatly improved. TEAM MOTIVATION AND EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION After you motivate yourself by mastering your own goal setting and Dopamine management, you'll learn how to motivate others. So if you want to grow into a leadership position at work, and need to learn about employee motivation, this course will give you the tools for that as well. You'll be able to motivate employees wherever you go in your career. RECENTLY ADDED: TEAM MOTIVATION AND EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION Most of this course is about motivating yourself. But to have a more holistic course, it's good to explore the topic of how to motivate others. In this new video, I'll show you team motivation strategies, and good ways to motivate other people by tapping into what's important for them.

Learn about the state of playfulness, get more creativity in that state, and apply it to your most critical tasks while keeping risk of failure low. LEARN TO PLAYFULLY UNLOCK CREATIVITY AND IMAGINATION Most people think that you should be very serious about the things that are mission-critical for you. But if you are very serious, and stakes are high at all times, you'll be afraid to try new things, and you won't grow. In this course, you'll learn about balancing when and how to be playful and creative in the things that are most important for you so you can find novel and creative solutions that are levels above what's been done before. EXERCISES TO PRACTICE YOUR CREATIVE SKILLS It's not enough to just learn about creativity. You have to test your skills at it. There will be a number of exercises to help you try to find creative solutions in low-stakes scenarios. LEARN ABOUT HOW A LEVEL OF CREATIVITY CHANGES WITH EXPERIENCE If you're new at any given skill, you'll have a high number of creative solutions. They may not be great, but that will be creative. As you gain experience in a field, you no longer need to be creative since you have proven methods for doing things. But if you can keep your creativity deliberately up as experience grows, you'll find better and more useful creative solutions to problems. PHASES OF CREATIVITY When we engage in a creative process, there are actually at least two stages to that process. The first phase of creativity is to think as broadly as possible and gather as many ideas or options as possible. The second phase of creativity and go through all the creative ideas you've gathered, and edit them to make sense. The analogy for this would be the relationship between a creative writer and an editor. But in most cases of engaging in creativity, you must be both, the creative person and the editor. The combination of both of these will ensure that your creative works achieve high quality and resonate with people who may consume your creative works. CREATIVITY CAN BE APPLIED ANYWHERE IN YOUR LIFE Most people think that creativity is something you need during the creative process of making art or music. But I would encourage you to add creativity to just about every part of your life from problem-solving to professional work to personal life. Think outside the box all the time. It's a fun challenge you can take on every moment of your life, and the best part if that the results will often positively surprise you. MAKE CREATIVITY A PART OF YOUR IDENTITY - YOU ARE A CREATIVE PERSON Make everything you do creative, and live your live creatively. It's more fun, and a creatively-lived life is more fascinating moment-to-moment. Take pride in your creativity, and have it enrich every facet of your life. HOW HAVING A CREATIVE LIFE WILL CHANGE YOU Instead of doing the same old thing that everyone else does simply because it's the thing to do, you will think for yourself, and do the more enjoyable things that inspire and interest you. Separate yourself from the boring lifestyles of people around you. Instead of being a consumer of other people's entertainment, content, or products, turn yourself into a person who uses creativity to create content or product that other people consumer or buy. When you always come up with new ways of doing things or new solutions, you will become the thought leader people pay attention to, and follow. Invest in your future! Enroll today!
