Do you ever use inner persuasion to motivate you to do the right thing for others? What about when you need to do something for yourself?
Action Mode
Most of us can “talk ourselves” into doing what we believe is expected of us. But what if no one expects you to pursue wealth? People around me expect me to be happy with the status quo. I imagine that you have the same experience.
Inner persuasion will help you overcome a tendency to put yourself last, and to move to action on your list of things that you know will enable you to achieve self-fulfillment. In other words, you have to find a way to actually do those things that will bring you success.
I ran across this information online at http://www.wikihow.com/Persuade-Yourself-to-Do-Anything. The recommendations are right on target, as I use the techniques that they suggest. I am sharing them with you so you, too, can benefit from them.

How to Persuade Yourself to Do Anything
You know you should. You would. You could. And yet… You can’t. It’s that internal dialogue, that says “Don’t!!!” You don’t know why but you can’t. Turn can’t into can.
Figure out why you can’t. What are the consequences? What is the worst that could happen? If you don’t know why not then, why not? Silence the voices in your head that say “No”.
Concentrate on the positive outcome. If you can think of some consequences, think of how much good it could do you! Most likely the consequences are silly and unimportant. Find out why they’re not important or they’re not going to happen.
Read some inspirational texts. They can help greatly.
Ponder the negative results of not following through. Consequences can help you. What will happen if you don’t do it? Worst case scenarios are a good visual aid. If you want to call that long lost friend, you must because if you don’t you might never see them again, and you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.
Act, just do it, don’t think about it. Pick up the phone and dial that friend. Tell your obnoxious roommate to hit the road. You don’t need a reason. You need results.
Life is short and you are as valid as anyone else so go for it!
