10 Positive Words to Motivate You (Part 1)

Here are ten simple and yet powerful words to provide the spark and keep the fire in you burning:

1. Action: You have learnt a lot. You know what to do, but you have not taken the first step. Your first step is the starting point to realize your dreams and goals. Do it now. Don’t wait for the right time. There will never be a better time. Now is the time to do what is right. 

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy. ~ Dele Carnegie

Achievement results from work realizing ambition. ~ Adam Ant  

3. Appreciation: You appreciate not only others but yourself. Appreciation is to look for the good in others and yourself.  When you value yourself you are resolved to do better than before. Your gratitude towards others will be acknowledged and appreciated.

Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts ~Alan Cohen 

4. Attitude: Attitude is everything. It is your thinking about things and how you react to events. When your thinking is positive, more often than not, the outcome will be positive as well.

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. ~Thomas Jefferson
