There are days when working from home can be very challenging. You may be under a tight deadline and it seems that a new obstacle creeps up at every opportunity. Perhaps your business isn't moving as fast as you had hoped and you're ready to throw in the towel. Whatever has you ready to give up, don't let it win. Instead, grab your motivational toolbox and get pumped up.
Your motivational toolbox is your secret weapon against stress and anxiety. These are the trainings, the audios, books, emails, or pictures you keep stashed in case of emergency. Your toolbox can be a digital arsenal stored on your computer or it can be an actual toolbox filled with tangible items.
Motivational and easy to fine, audio trainings are available from lots of online sources. A growing number of websites offer audio content that can be downloaded straight to your MP3 player. Strap on your headphones and go for a motivational walk. Listening to encouraging training while getting your blood flowing is a great relief when stress strikes especially harshly. You might choose to listen to an Internet talk radio show too.
When clients email you with praise because of the great job you've done, save those emails so that you can read them on a rainy day. A tremendous boost of self esteem and confidence, a quick skim through such emails can completely turn your mood around and prepare you for another barrage of tough work.
If you have a mentor, save the emails that explain any hardships they went through and how they overcame them. You will see that everyone has "down" days and that pushing through them is the only way to get over them.
Photos and pictures are another great source of motivation while working. The computer desktop is the perfect place for putting a picture you've stumbled across that you find particularly inspiring. Some examples are photos of a mountain climber reaching the summit or a runner crossing the finish line.
Personal photos of your grandparents when they were young or your high school portrait can be equally stimulating.
Hand made cards or pictures that your children have created can also be a great motivator. You may not always feel confident, but in their eyes, you are the best at what you do.
