Motivation comes as a result of having a clearly
defined goal to achieve something that you are
passionate about. I meet people week in and week
out here in Oxford that are thousands of miles
away from home studying at the university.
Oxford is world famous for turning out some
really successful people, such as presidents,
prime ministers and CEO’s of large international
companies. In fact there are probably students
studying there now that will be responsible for
massive changes and impacts to the world in
their lifetimes. One problem that I hear of from
the academics that I help in my clinic is one of
a lack of motivation and plenty of
procrastination.
A massive number of students that do come and
see me have arrived at Oxford with no clear
definition of what they want from even being
there. When asked what they will do with their
degree they say that they are not sure and when
I ask then why they are studying they tell me
that it is what their parents want. This makes
me a little concerned as how can we expect
motivation and passion to be there when we are
trying to achieve something that is someone
else’s dreams and goals for us? I really detest
the parental war cry of ‘go to university and
get good grades so that you can get a secure
job’. This is all well and good if children and
young adults are allowed to explore their own
dreams and aspirations – instead of having to do
what their parents say.
I have seen students that are just seemingly
‘lost in life’ because their parents have chosen
to decide what would be best for their child’s
life. This type of restriction is cruel and is
uncalled for. If parents wanted a puppet they
should have gone to the toy store instead of
having children. If you are a student in this
position you will understand just how this can
impact your passion and motivation.
If you are in this situation you have two
options, the first is to become more assertive
and start to explore and research the things
that you want to achieve in your life and then
start to achieve them. The second is to except
defeat and do what your parents want and get
that degree and then enter the rat race. The
choice is yours – puppet or individual – you
decide.
If you want to gain more motivation, passion and
enthusiasm then I suggest that you use hypnosis
to achieve your goals and attain the career and
lifestyle that you want to have.
