0I've nothing against motivation, but the way we're approaching it; it's just a tragedy. However, this kind of motivation works for a few people but not for everyone. In research, some scientists found that 95% of people who are getting influenced by motivational speaker, they live a more complicated life than before. There is nothing wrong with motivation or motivational speakers; it's just the way, we approach motivation or choose motivational speakers, should change.
Some factors should we change as a motivational listener or a speaker. We've to look at some fundamentals of human behaviours: mind, body, emotions, and energy. Let's have a brief look at those fundamentals-
1. Mind- It doesn't matter how much motivation you get; if your brain doesn't get the right information from you that it needs - no motivation will work for you, because we all know our mind is the powerhouse of all negative and positive feelings or thoughts. Organizing our mind should be a priority. Well, there're various ways to have a well-organized mind.
2. Body- People say your body has nothing to do with motivation; even some of our speakers also don't talk about the body factor. Let me give you an example: let's say you want to be a great motivational speaker and have all of those qualities you need to be a motivational speaker. But you're struggling with your body; let me tell you something - you're never going to be able to perform well as a motivational speaker. So, we should also need to take care of our bodies.
3. Emotion- Emotionally troubled humans can't be motivated; most of the motivational speakers target our feelings. We must settle ourselves emotionally; otherwise, our compulsiveness will haunt us every time. In my opinion, we give emotion too much value, that's why we suffer.
4. Energies- After conquering those three fundamentals; we need to manage our energy because we all know - we have a limited amount of energy and time. Energy and time management depends upon your work; well, it can be managed if you're a good manager; otherwise, you've to hire a manager for that matter. Well, your manager can help you with time management but not with the energies. You can seek some advice to manage your energy, to a motivational or spiritual speaker.
In my opinion, motivation shouldn't be your destination because it's a path that can help ourselves to achieve our goal. The smoother way you walk on, the better for you. Being motivational is not a quality but a human nature that we should work on.
