If there is one thing that everyone needs and wants and dreams and thinks about – it is money. There are people for whom money means nearly everything while there are some others who believe money is the root of all evil. No matter what you believe, there is no denying that money is very important today. Interestingly, money can be used to motivate yourself very easily.
The primary power of money resides in its ability to let your buy things. The secondary function of money here becomes satisfaction or providing you with “entertainment” or “enjoyment” of the things you buy with it. Can you make use of these powers of money to increase your self motivation? Yes, you can.
Money is a perfect goal for two major reasons. Firstly, it is measurable. You can easily measure how much money you have. And secondly, it enables you to compare your performance.
When you set a certain amount of money as your goal, you can measure and compare if you reached the level your set goal. Of course, your primary goal cannot be money because money is a means to attain other “purposes”. But you can still use the power of money to motivate yourself and through your self motivation skills, you can easily make it a major source of motivation energy.
A quote by David Lee Roth comes to mind – “Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can buy you a yacht big enough to pull up right alongside it.
