Motivation and the company you keep

Research shows that you can influence your level of motivation. That’s important as motivation greatly determines how we act, and our actions determine the life we enjoy. True Believers are motivated! A crucial factor that contributes to motivation is the company we keep. Keeping company with True Believers rather than Non-believers will greatly influence your level of motivation and your ability to create your success masterpiece.

What motivates you? What gives you that get up and go — the drive, the energy, the stamina and the commitment to create amazing outcomes? For the most part motivation is an inner desire to maximise pleasure and minimise pain. As Zig Ziglar said, “Motivation is the fuel necessary to keep the human energy running.” And if motivation is the driving force, the company you keep can determine the quality of the drive or the dollars per litre you choose to pay.

The company you keep can have a positive or a negative impact on your motivation. The people around you can:

  •      Affect you — you are influenced by the company you keep
  •      Infect you — you are changed by the company you keep
  •      Define you — you are known by the company you keep
  •      Reflect you— you are the company you keep!

It’s important to consider carefully who you spend time with.

When it comes to motivation making the right choices about the company you keep matters. When it comes to the company you keep — choose wisely!
