Four steps to building self-motivation
Identify your likes and dislikes. Understand what makes you happy.
Example — I love cooking.
Define the goals you want to achieve and focus all your energy on achieving your goal.
Example — I want to become a chef.
Plan and set timelines to achieve your goals. Plan a list of activities that you will do to achieve each goal.
Example — After completing Class XII you can join a Hotel Management course and then later take additional courses to become a chef.
Work towards achieving your goal, even when you face a difficult time.
Example — Even though I did not clear the Hotel Management entrance exam, I will find out other ways to become a Chef.
