3 Ways To Choose Your Emotional Anchor To Success
Your success is what you make it but you`ll need to have an underlying motivation to drive you on so you need to be careful what that is so you`ll sustain your drive to success
You can let emotion be your guiding force.
But your guidance needs to come from a very special place so you don’t end up regretting it.
And if it is it can lead you to where you`re supposed to be in life. And success will be there too. Some call it an anchor others refer to it as a turning point.
Either way, it’s a trigger to getting started from a less desirable place to somewhere you think at the time will be of greater benefit to you in the future.
This emotional anchor could come from a parent, a person, or something you want to prove to yourself. But whatever or whoever it is you must be certain of it when you allow it to guide you.
As great success can take time.
And if you choose the greatest motivator then you`ll be on the best path from the beginning.
As we know in life no matter what you do time will pass and you won’t get it back again.
Because anyone who has been very successful will tell you they’ve toiled long and hard and in doing so they`ve had to have something to drive them.
But you can`t just do this in the short term.
Over time and with failures you must be driven.
Almost consumed.
That’s if you want success in all areas of your life. And some may even say people are obsessed with their success. And if that comes from a great place of motivation is it so wrong?
Maybe the answer to that question is by looking at what can motivate people to succeed in the first place and then you can decide on what is the best source of an underlying emotional guiding force for you.
So now, let’s look at three ways people can be motivated to succeed.
1. Revenge.
In life, people can put you down.
When this happens you can sit still or fight back. To put it in a more technical term you can experience a fight or flight scenario in your being. But if you want to go a step further you can experience a freeze too.
2. Love.
In this world, not everyone is totality motivated. They lack a spark of something or someone that will shake them in their boots enough to think about what can push them along their way. Then they discover something they are good at or have a love for and it becomes their passion.
It may have started as a passing interest or a hobby of note but eventually blossoms into a thing of note.
The same is true of love for another.
It can motivate a person to do great things and achieve great success.
3. Proving Things to Yourself.
Once you hit a certain time in your life you`ll notice you’re the one that is in control. You`ll figure out many of the scenarios you`ve ended up in throughout life are because of the decisions you`ve made along the way.
And by putting attention and all your energy behind your choice you`re putting yourself in the driving seat. From there you can feel as if you are the one guiding things. And you`re motivated to prove the choices you`ve made to yourself.
You can either continue to use the initial thought about yourself to maintain that overall motivation or you can choose to change your thoughts about yourself which will dictate what will sustain to motivate you in the future.
Either way, you are self-motivated in the long term.
Once you are successful you will look back and wonder how you got there. You’ll probably sit back, relax, and take it all in. You`ll think of who or what got the ball rolling for you.
You`ll ponder on how it all began, how it all developed, the problems you had along the way, and how you eventually got to that place you wanted to get to.
But when you do it you`ll realize you`re alone in your thoughts.
And whatever drove you was a situation that was huge for you at the time or involved people who had an emotional impact in your life. But that will then have passed. And it or they will not be there in your presence in the same way.
That’s when you need to let go of it all and enjoy your presence and be assured you are where you`re meant to be.
Because if you can’t do that then it’s all only been a slow way for you to have worked through your emotions. Call it therapy, or counseling if you want. But it is only a slow burn of dealing with emotional shock.
So make it more than that.
