You can achieve greatly enhanced motivation when you learn how to expect the best. Here are some tips!
If you could achieve anything in your life what would it be?
If you could do, could have, or could be anything, what would you choose?
Now let me ask you another question.
Why haven’t you? Well if you are anything like most people, your answer to this question will be a number of reasons why you cannot do what you really want.
Failing to try is failure of the worst kind.
This is the reason why highly successful people in all areas of life are people who have a positive, optimistic outlook on life.
They always expect the best, and therefore they receive it.
If you what greatly enhanced motivation, you need to start expecting the best.
To give you some very powerful advice on how to do this, I want to share some words from one of my favorite books, The Psychology of Winning by Denis Waitely.
the most readily identifiable quality of the total winner is an overall attitude of personal optimism and enthusiasm.
Winners understand the psychosomatic relationship-psyche and Soma-mind and body… That the body expresses what the mind is concerned with.
They know that life is a self fulfilling prophecy, that a person usually gets what he or she actively expects.
Losers say, “with my luck, I was bound to fail.”
Winners say: “I was good today, I’ll be better tomorrow.”
Your fears and worries turn into anxiety which is distressful-the production of certain hormones and antibodies changes; resistance levels are lower and you become more vulnerable to disease and accident.
Conversely, since your mind and body are trying to comply with your instructions and achieve a condition of “homeostasis” or balance, if your mental expectancy is healthy and creative your body will seek to display this general feeling with better health, energy and a condition of well being.
That is why many common maladies such as headaches, low back pain, ulcers, hives, shingles, asthma, and certain allergies are often identified with emotion rather than organic disturbances.
By expecting the best, as a way of life, you are preparing yourself physically as well as mentally for the demands of winning.
