This
morning I was thinking about motivation. What motivates people to do
something they ardently want?
Whatever
it is your purpose, you need to focus on why you want to do it.
I
will try to summarize what worked for me (with some examples):
1.
Inspiration
When
I decided to go vegan I had a lot of doubts, I admit it, but I got my
inspiration from almost 4 people:
The
first one is my father. On his highest weight (110 kg – 242 pounds)
he decided he couldn't go on like this because he wouldn't have been
here today to see his daughter growing up. It took him 5 years to
lose 40 kg and now he's one of the happiest person I've ever known.
Two
years ago he also decided to go vegan and work on his body to be
healthier and stronger for me and my mother.
He
is such an inspiration to have the strength to change my life as he
did!
The
second one is a lovely girl named Alyse who has a youtube channel Raw Alignment
(she is amazing) and last but not least two brothers from Norway
(youtube channel Sweet Natural Living).
I
got inspiration from them to follow my dreams, to keep studying about
health and I had the chance to see with my eyes the real connection
between being healthy and being happy.
For
those you have any doubt about changing diet or you want to change
your habits to feel better with yourself, I want you to know you have
the strength to do it.
If
you are scared or afraid about what can happen, just take your time
to study the topic more and get into it then, try it when you feel
ready.
You
can discover that it may fits for you, it could even make you happy.
2.
Support
If
someone supports you for what you are doing, it will be like you are
doing it together, it could be quite easier.
I'm
really lucky because my family always supported me for almost
everything I did in my life. I know maybe not everybody can say the
same.
I
went to xfactor last year, I'm not that proud of how it went, but my
father was there for me, to support me anyway.
During
the audition I made a mistake and I just gave up, I knew that was not
what I want to do with my life.
That
experience gave me the chance to learn one of the most important
things in life:
The
best supporter for you... is you.
Believe in yourself and you will do
whatever you want.
You can make mistakes, but it doesn't
matter because every mistake will let you know more about yourself.
3. Intuition
Potentially you can completely change
your life overnight, but if you aren't ready it will only upset you.
This is what intuition stands for, you
need to find the optimal conditions to be ready to change, physically
and mentally.
It is similar to when you read a book:
some years ago it may was insignificant, but if you read it
today it might be a revelation.
Things need time to happen, if not
today, maybe tomorrow.
Let me know what works for you, what
you are planning for the future and how far you want to arrive!
