Lack of Motivation

Many of us have goals and only need a little bit of motivation to get fired up and skyrocket toward where we are. But while many of us have great goals that we could accomplish with a little bit of patience and motivation, only very few of us reach for those potentials. Many of those few people have not even reached the motivation that they sought when they first started and instead, the replaced the illusion with a reality that they decided they could alter as they wish.
Reality can be miserable if you do not find your true motivation. It can seem as if the universe is denying you your right of living and doing what you should be doing, but instead, someone else will take the chance that you denied and will work until they reach their goals. Someone else will find your dream and achieve it for themselves while you stand afar and watch.

But motivation does not need to come from tools. I have come with a simple recipe for motivation. I put my goals ahead of me, I draw them or write them down and imagine how my life would be if I was living those dreams. For a minute, I get lost in my imagination and when I snap out of it, I go as fast as I can and try to achieve those goals until I lose my motivation once more. I take a break that could go up to a week or a month then I does the same thing. Just the sight of my goals ahead of me fills me with energy and I go chasing after them.
Yes, opportunity may not present itself fast enough. I might lose my train of thoughts and then my dreams would become nightmares, but as soon as I get back to the reality I'm living in, I go back and chase those dreams no matter what stands in my way. Just the idea that I might finally accomplish those goals on my own without aid fires me up.

If you have a similar problem where opportunity doesn't come to you, then you really shouldn't wait for it. The fact that you are working to achieve your goal is enough. Opportunity will not have to find you because everything will lead it to you.
Think about it for a moment, if you are looking to get a promotion what would you do? Would you go and ask your boss to promote you for absolutely no reason? I don't think they would accept it.
If you are looking to get a promotion you work hard enough so you would achieve it. If you want it really bad you show everyone around that this promotion is yours and it belongs to no one else. You make yourself deserve it. Only the hard work will make you earn it.
It's the same thing with every opportunity in life. You work hard enough and you find life handing the opportunity to you. Most of people who get opportunities for no reason go ahead and waste them. They show the world that they didn't deserve it in the first place. The most they would do is earn the place that they have achieved for no reason, but then their dreams are completed and they do nothing more with them. Pick your side. Choose who you are.
