Do you have big dreams and goals you want to accomplish? If you are
reading this, then the answer is most likely yes. You may have been
highly motivated when you started to work toward what you wanted, but
now your motivation has waned or even disappeared completely. Perhaps
you have not even been able to find the motivation to begin yet.
Whether it is the former or the latter, the root problem is that you
have not found your massive motivator. You have not yet found the thing
that creates the burning desire in you that will keep you moving forward
no matter what happens, no matter who or what gets in your way. In this
article I will go over some of the massive motivators that other people
have used to become successful in their lives, so that you can find
which one will work for you.
Selfless Massive Motivators
People who are driven by selfless massive motivators are inspired to
act for the benefit of other people. One example would be new parents
who become more mature and responsible so that they can provide a good
life for their child.
Another example would be athletes that become totally dedicated to
turning pro after seeing the massive sacrifices their parents make for
the survival of the family. The athlete’s burning desire is to make
enough money so that his parents can live in a nice house and never have
to work again.
A third example is a person who is deeply moved by the plight of a
group of people that are suffering from some cruel injustice. This
person’s driving force is to help those who are unable to help
themselves.
Selfish Massive Motivators
People who are driven by selfish massive motivators often do so
because they were rejected or felt like they had been wronged. These
types of situations happen to us all and can be sources of tremendous
anger. While these events may seem bad at the time, they can actually
turn out to be excellent opportunities for personal growth. The common
reaction is to let your anger be destructive and make the situation
worse. If you instead channel your anger into constructive and positive
action, then your chances of future success will improve.
A famous example of a person driven by this type of massive motivator
would be the NBA legend, Michael Jordan. He was cut from his high
school varsity basketball team as a sophomore and could have given up on
his dream. Instead, it became his burning desire to succeed in
basketball and he went on to become the greatest basketball player of
all time.
Multiple Paths Lead To The Same Destination
Finding your own massive motivator is the best way to create the
burning desire to succeed. A selfless massive motivator might seem to be
the most attractive and feel-good option, but they just do not work for
some people. This is because they do not create the necessary amount of
motivation for these people.
You might feel inclined to not want to use a selfish massive
motivator because of the negative connotations of selfishness and anger.
It would be a mistake to dismiss this path if it is what will motivate
you the most to keep pushing through all of the inevitable roadblocks to
success.
The important thing is to find what works best for you personally.
You can always choose to be selfless and giving after you have become
successful. In fact, many people that have used the selfish path to
become successful have done lots of good in the world through their
charity work.
Whether you choose the selfless path or the selfish path you will end
up at the same destination: a confident, successful individual in a
position to make the world a better place.
