Autosuggestion is one of the most astounding secrets of self-motivation and personal development in general. It is the simple act of repeating statements and affirmations relating to your goals. Many philosophers have written on this subject and a key authority on this subject is Emile Coue who used it as a form of treating patients and it worked well in curing diseases. One popular affirmation of Coue is: “Everyday, in everyway, I am getting better and better”. You could develop a similar self-motivation quote around the foregoing affirmation.

Now what can autosuggestion do for you? First you have to believe that the technique works. Indeed this method has been used by countless success stories in different fields of human endeavour. Orison Swett Marden testified to the authenticity of this technique when he said that the reading and re-reading of a single volume has been the making of many a man. Look for some self-motivation quotes or better still develop some affirmations for yourself and use them as often as you can. Motivational speaker, author and psychologist Denis Wailey has recommended a few which he uses himself including the following:

- I am a good valuable and worthy person

- I control my thoughts emotions and actions and direct them to improve my health, my relationships, my performance and my life

- Regardless of what happens in my life I’ve decided to be happy

You can use this method to kick start your own self motivation. Let’s start it Now!

Six Tips to Keep Up Your Exercise Motivation The next time you start to slide with your exercise program, stop! On again off again exercise will never get you the results you want. Instead, use these six tips to stay on track and achieve and achieve your desired fitness goals: 1.Don’t beat yourself up if you miss a workout. Life is full of challenges and unexpected obstacles. Setbacks happen. Don’t let a couple of missed workouts turn into two months of inactivity. 2.Take a break. A plateau, burnout or lack of motivation might be your body asking for a break. Take an occasional break from your regular exercise routine for a few days or so, keeping active with some low intensity activities like walking or riding a beach cruiser. 3.Write it down. Does it ever seem like you’re not getting anywhere? Monitor your program to adjust your regime as necessary. Writing it down also lets you measure the improvements you’ve made over time, which is good to review during times of waning motivation. 4.Treat yourself to technology. Tools like heart rate monitors and calorie trackers make exercise more fun and let you see instantly the results of your efforts. 5.Club it. If you like to bike, run, swim or dance, join a club. The social component makes it fun while the group can provide accountability and motivation to stay on track. 6.See the whole picture. Focus on all the benefits of exercise, like how a good workout makes you feel or the decrease in your cholesterol level. The more benefits you can identify the more motivated you are to exercise, even at times when you don’t feel like it.
