How to feel motivated
To the exact extent to which we feel motivated, we will provide the energy for effective manifesting. It thus makes sense that the more we want something, the more efficiently and effectively we can attain it. It is important to immediately make a distinction here though: Wanting is not the same as needing or craving. The ideal state from which to manifest is one of intense motivation, with the awareness of how there could be something better for us. In that manner, we are providing a lot of energy, and yet not delaying he manifestation by thinking that we need it (you can find out more about this in my essay entitled The Law of Attraction and not caring).
Motivation is what provides the energy for manifestations, and upon understanding that, we may just want to figure out how exactly to be motivated. I would suggest that being motivated is just what it says. Being motivated. When it's our default state of being to experience motivation, then we won' depend on circumstances to provide reasons for us. We just have the motivation within us.
So how do we take on motivation as our default state of being, rather than for it to just be a fleeting feeling which surfaces in response to circumstances. How do we shift motivation towards being more of a cause, rather than an effect for us?
We need to reprogram our subconscious. This is what determines our default attitudes. We can be great at using conscious creation to achieve whatever we want, but if the motivation to achieve whatever we feel drawn towards depends upon our feeling dissatisfied, then we are still just responding to circumstances. As long as our motivation depends on feeling dissatisfied, we are unlikely to truly excel. But if we are motivated by default, then we don't need a dissatisfied emotional state to perform well. Achieving at the peak of that potential of ours which we have so far uncovered then becomes our default state of being, and we may see what we can truly do.
There are other factors in this process, but motivation is certainly a major one. And if we experience true desire, ambition, and motivation; if we are consistently passionate about something, then we are already in a great position for performing in that area. In my experience, the more we want something (while not feeling that we need) it, and accept it as possible while feeling good about it, the quicker and more efficiently it manifests.
