1. The Law of Direction
Determine your direction for increased motivation. Knowing where you are going increases your ability to make quick decisions. Quick decision making eliminates your tendency to hesitate. With direction you have a target which you are striving to hit. You can clearly recognize opportunities. You are able to seize those opportunities quickly when you know where you are going. When you have direction you are more motivated to take action.
2.The Law of Simple Planning
Planning offers you a step by step path to completion of your goals. When you know where you are going you are able to fight against procrastination better. With a plan you know what comes next so you are compelled to act. You are not paralyzed by indecision. The plan allows you to focus on the task in front of you. As you complete one step you proceed to the next one according to your plan. It is easier to get up for a task when you know that there is a solid plan in place.
3.The Law of Initiative
When motivation is low simply take the first step. When you take initiative you feed yourself confidence and energy. After being in an inactive state for a prolonged amount of time just starting will make you excited. Once you take the intuitive strive to develop a habit of doing it all of the time. You want to become the type of person who is quick to act. When you are that type of person you don't have to get motivated in order to take action you will take action as a course of habit.
4.The Law of Expectation
When you do something for an expected result you will find that motivation comes easily. It is like the kid who is expecting a bike to be under the Christmas Tree if he gets good grades in school. He is motivated to get good grades by the bike. Deep down he still doesn't want to do his homework or study hard, but he does. He does it to get the bicycle. We can do the same thing when we want to achieve a desired result. We can build up expectation for the results that we want as we are taking the necessary action to make those desired results come to fruition.
