The Motivation PRP
There are seven goals to successfully complete your Motivation Personal Responsibility Project.
1. To have you become more self-aware of what directly or indirectly affects your motivation in different situations.
2. To have you become aware that your motivation is directly related to your time management and goal setting skills.
3. To have you become more personally accountable and responsible for improving and maintaining your motivation.
4. To have you become more aware of what repeatable techniques you can use to rekindle lost or lowered levels of motivation.
5. To be more aware of what observable behaviors you can show people in your life that proves you are motivated to completing your goals.
6. To have you complete a personal reflection that will provide you with deeper insight into how your motivation was affected in the past, how your motivation is affected by current events and what you need to do to stay motivated in the future.
7. To complete this PRP in less than (7) seven days to reinforce your commitment to proper time management and goal setting abilities on your way to achieving success!
Your commitment and effort to this exercise will be the start of a lifetime of satisfaction that you can and stay motivated!
This PRP is designed to challenge your ability to be honest and realistic about your desire to work smart and hard to reach higher levels of satisfaction while achieving your goals.
Take your time and tell it like it is not how you want it to be or how it should have been.
Remember, you will be positively supported in your efforts with critiques not judgement!
The next three pages contain questions that you should give a great deal of thought about.
It is always better to write or type out your answers to become more deeply involved in this project that will lead to a greater satisfaction after completion.
Your motivation is directly related to your Time Management and Goal Setting skills.
Be personally accountable and responsible for improving and maintaining your motivation.
Be aware that there are repeatable techniques you can use to rekindle lost motivation.
Be more aware of what observable behaviors you can show people in your life that proves you are motivated to completing your goals.
After answering those questions, read back through them as if someone else answered them.
Do you see that desire, effort and satisfaction are what makes up motivation?
Do you see any patterns of low, medium or high motivation?
Do you feel that this person fully revealed their true intentions, behaviors and past actions?
If you want to push yourself further into developing stronger levels of motivation try recording yourself as if you were really having a conversation with someone who is sitting with you and then listen to your recording. Be animated and lively as if you were on a live feed channel.
Was it a good talk? If so; how can you use your own voice and words to remind you of what it takes to succeed and stay motivated? If not; how could you improve your self-discussion to improve your motivation?
What would you tell this person on how to improve their work using supportive language?
Now…
It’s time to take the next step in getting ready to write your 250-word minimum personal reflection regarding what you found out about your motivation!
The next three pages of questions are more specific that will provide you with evidence of where you’ve been, where you are, and where you want to be with your motivation in reaching your goals and your higher levels of success.
To help design your personal reflection writing be as thorough in your answers as possible.
Push yourself and dig deep past any barriers you might put up to not sound so negative.
Remember, this PRP is about you and your self-improvement through supportive critique!
You will not be judged!
