You know what? every person working hard for success falls into two categories: the self-start or the kick-start. You might have seen these bike features or know that bikes come in two types: kick-start and self-start and sometimes both. Kickstart requires a kick to get the bike running, while self-start just needs a button press. If we relate this example to our lives, those working for success can be divided into those who need external motivation (a kick) and those who are self-motivated and work without external triggers.

1. The Difference

Now, the concept of self-start or kick-start in our lives can be related to motivation. Many people need external motivation and derive it by watching motivational videos on YouTube, or any other social media platform. On the other hand, some individuals are self-motivated; they don’t seek motivation elsewhere as their dreams and goals drive them from within. The difference lies in the fact that the impact of external motivation, like that from YouTube, lasts only for a limited time, while self-motivation continues until success is achieved.

How FEAR can help you?

You can motivate yourself more effectively than anyone or anything else can. Becoming a self-motivated person is more sustainable than relying on motivational videos. I know it’s challenging, but when I started working on my dreams, I used to watch motivational videos for hours. However, I realized that this habit led to the need for constant motivation every time I faced challenges. But when I set clear goals and aspirations, the fear of not achieving them became my inner motivation, pushing me to work harder. Even now, this fear keeps motivating me to work towards success.

So, dream big and set goals that motivate you from within. Set a goal that keeps you awake at night, and doesn’t let you sleep. Dream big, and fulfill those dreams. You don’t need someone else to motivate you; you’re not a kick-start bike. You should have a spark within, a fire to achieve your dreams.

Moreover, nowadays, the era of kickstart bikes is over; it’s the self-start era. So, if you want to make a mark, don’t rely on others for motivation. Motivate yourself. Motivate yourself with your goals, and your dreams, and move forward.

Those who think they need a kickstart… you may want to be a self-start person… To become a self-motivated person, you can focus on the following three ways:

How to become a Self Start person

1. Define Clear Goals

– Clearly define your long and short-term goals. It is very important to know what you want to achieve in life.
– After setting goals, break down those goals into smaller tasks. Those small tasks should help you achieve your life goal. Doing this helps in staying on the right track and tracking the progress. Always set SMART goals.

2. Internal Inspiration

– Ask yourself why your goals are important to you. Imagine how achieving these goals can change your life.
– Try to connect emotionally with your aspiration to change your life. When we align our goals with our values and interests, we find a consistent source of motivation within ourselves.

3. Discipline and Consistency

– Try to discipline yourself. When I decided to change my life last year I started with the habit of keeping my room clean. Good habits lay the foundation for self-motivation. Choose the set time each day to work on your goals.
– Stay committed even when facing challenges. Maintaining patience and working consistently is the only rule to succeed. This is my favorite rule. Be consistent in what you are working for and no one can stop you from achieving it.

By applying these three strategies, you can be self-motivated, reducing dependence on external factors. Keep in mind that becoming a self-motivated person is a journey, and consistency is key.
