Questions have immense power to drive us and motivate us. If used on a regular basis, the act of asking questions can literally change your life.
The trick is to ask high quality questions that prompt the brain to give answers that increase self-esteem and motivation.
If you get in the habit of asking yourself these five questions every morning, you’ll find that in just thirty days your whole life outlook, your sense of motivation and even your sense of self will change.
Try putting on exciting, motivating or uplifting music while you ask yourself these questions.
==> What Am I Grateful For Today?
Start your day off with a healthy dose of gratitude.
Gratitude gets you thinking about what’s right in your life rather than about anything that’s lacking.
Research has shown that people who experience gratitude on a regular basis tend to be happier. They also tend to achieve their own goals more often.
==> Who Loves Me and Who Do I Love?
Love is one of the strongest emotions that human beings can imagine.
Knowing that someone out there cares for you and wants you to succeed can really help propel you forward.
Likewise, knowing who in your life you care about can be incredibly motivating. That’s especially true if what you’re doing can benefit them directly.
For example, if you’re working hard to achieve financial goals and you’re doing it for your family, a reminder of who’s really important in the morning can help give you a boost of motivation in the morning.
==> Where Do I Want to Be in 5 Years?
Having a powerful vision of where you want to be in 5 or 10 years can be an incredible motivator. In fact, the motivation to give today your all can often come from a strong vision of tomorrow.
Map out where you want to be in terms of your finances and career, your health and your relationships in 5 years. Make the vision as compelling as possible, while keeping it realistic.
==> What Do I Want to Learn Today?
Everyone has an instinctive drive to learn. People are born curious, but often let that sense of curiosity atrophy over time. But no matter how old you are or what field you work in, it’s still in there.
Ask yourself: What’s one thing you want to learn today?
It could be something that’s career related. A skill or fact you want to learn.
It could be something about your significant other, your kids or your co-workers. It could be something as simple as learning what kind of toy your kid wants for his birthday.
It could be something about yourself. For example, how do you react when you have to delegate a difficult task?
Start your day with a small education goal. This will help keep you alert throughout the day for the answer.
==> What’s the #1 Thing I Want to Achieve Today?
What’s the most important thing you want to do today?
Try to narrow your day down to one single thing that you want to get right. Whether it’s asking your kid to clean his room or asking a client to renew their contract, try to narrow down your whole day to just one task.
This makes it easy to tackle your day with laser focus. It also helps create a sense of accomplishment when you do achieve that goal.
These are five powerful motivating questions you can ask yourself every morning.
Try asking these questions for just 30 days and see what kind of results you get.
