You have all the resources you need....

You have all the resources you need for change,  if not you can create them. People often say to me things like 
"my problem is I just haven't got any motivation".  They take motivation and make into a thing, a thing that you either have or you haven't. Motivation is not static, it's a process, which involves a series of representations (pictures, internal communication, feelings, smells and even tastes)  .To get motivated you need to think motivating thoughts : make pictures and visualize things that motivate you, see yourself doing the things that you want to and enjoying doing them. Say motivating positive words to yourself about yourself and your abilities to achieve what it is you want to and really feel how how good it will feel to achieve what it is you want to be motivated to do.   


The basic motivation pattern:


Step 1. Imagine enjoying a key achievement.
Imagine that you have achieved one of your greatest dreams in life, 
Imagine yourself fully enjoying it.
Experience the sights, sounds, and feelings of this enjoyment. 


Step 2. Enhance and anchor the state as a pleasure motivation state.
Amplify the compelling and motivational aspects of this experience. 
Do this by adjusting sub-modalities such as brightness and size. 
This is a pleasure motivation state.
Think of a word  that summarises this feeling.
As you do this, make your hand into a fist. 
this is an anchor.


Step 3. Future pace with this state.
Carry these feelings  into imagining yourself taking steps that will actually move you toward your dreams outcome.
Trigger to make your hand into a fist and say your word for the pleasure motivation state to enhance this state.


Step 4. Test 
In the coming days and weeks, notice if you find it easier to take steps toward this or other dreams or desired outcomes.
