Blog Review

Monday, 23 August 2010 06:49 | Written by Kip Ferguson |

I am currently working on setting up the Motivology Matters blog on several directory listings. Most just want you to put a link somewhere on your page and you will see some of those on the bottom of the blog pages. One of the directories that looks very nice is rssHugger. The interface is pretty decent, but it did take a couple of minutes for me to figure out the control panel, mostly from me not paying attention to the tabs in the middle of the page. I also found it a little confusing when it came to configuring the blog listing, but that was minor. (had to click on the name of the entry).

As I start tracking traffic from the various directories, I will report back and provide updates.

In Business - Changing Envy to Repect, Ambition and Determination

Tuesday, 13 July 2010 14:38 | Written by Tami Stodghill |

I have this friend....and she's a real friend. One of those that is always there when needed, doesn't interfere or try to give advice when it's not wanted and knows me, perhaps, better than anyone. That kind of friend is so valuable and hard to find. Needless to say, I view that friendship as a gift. Who wouldn't?
But this friend has always had a knack for being successful at everything she does. And I mean anything. She has owned a service bureau, she is a writer of a published book, she owns multiple companies and worked for a major player in the desktop publishing software industry, successfully making changes in the company that were all great changes. She also started a way cool website that always people to vote on topics that are very controversial. And now, she owns a building that she couldn't seem to sell off, so she is starting a business in that building that will, undoubtedly, become a huge success.

I always loved her dearly, but also, this part of me was always envious of her. Envious of her brilliant ideas, ability to work so hard and so smart at achieving her goals, and her ability to somehow, always find or create the resources to make her dreams and goals work. I never treated her as though I envied her. But I did envy her. Who wouldn't?

Enforcing Ambition - Setting Goals Beyond the Average and Challenging One's Sense of Boundaries

Tuesday, 13 July 2010 14:31 | Written by Henry M. Piironen |

Realism deepens throughout the person's life, whether it be a deepening desire that must change its target in order to develop, one-love that deepens towards another person, or for example the curious existentialism of self-liberation that liberates the person till the moment of his/her death. These are all still phenomena of something a kind increasing in complexity, and this drive can be placed to goals that are far beyond the average accomplishments, with the confidence and patience of an athlete.

If a person only seizes a day, he/she cannot paint a gallery's worth of paintings during that day. The paintings of Pablo Picasso gradually accumulated to the extents we may now admire them in, the collected works of William Shakespeare can now be in our bookshelves, amongst other works from a variety of authors because of the cumulating past of literature. Modern psychology can be mean for a creative person, as it sets standards that are supposed to be the boundaries of creation. How much, when, how they should be timed, how much other activities than creative works must be included, and so on, but if we brought Leonardo da Vinci to our time period, such attempts to tame him would be outrageous to him. But in contrast, for Salvador Dali, such analytical processes of his psyche and his ability to immediately paint a masterpiece during his late years before the paralyzing ailment he suffered, would have only been an enjoyment, after all, he is the master of the art of egotism in the extreme.

Persuasion and Ambition in Action - I Believe in You

"Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great." Mark Twain

My clients and students are at the top of their respective games. I know this, because I work primarily with very high end financial advisors, real estate agents, speakers, sales professionals, and the like, and they did not get to where they are by falling into it or because of luck. They got there because they have goals, they have work ethic, they have the intelligence, they have the education, and they have ambition. And they are still at the top through the ups and downs of the economic turbulance.

Why Ambition is Important - It Can Take You Places

Tuesday, 13 July 2010 13:30 | Written by David Nuka |

There are many reasons why ambition is important in your life. This is because there are many different times and reasons you need ambition. You need it in your career and in your family. You also need it for yourself. Fulfilling dreams that matter to you on a personal level is one of the greatest things a person can do with their life. This could mean you running a marathon simply to do it or writing a poem because you wanted to do it. Regardless of what it is you want to do for yourself, you need ambition to accomplish it.

The main reason why ambition is important is because most things are not just handed to you in life. You have to really want something and know why you want it. When you really want something out of your life, you will be more willing to work hard to accomplish it. It also helps to have ambition whenever things are not going so great in your life. Having ambition in times like these will lead you to get yourself out of them and find happiness and success. If you have no ambition in your life, you have no drive for anything. Nothing will seem important.
