O Treinamento Da Motivação
Eis o novo tema do nosso percurso e a mim parece muito importante. Tenho vontade – então faço? É sempre assim? Do querer ao fazer há um grande oceano… O que significa? Que não é assim fácil realizar aquilo que queremos. Dizem que as paredes do inferno são construídos pela boa vontade nunca realizada.. queria! gostaria! seria bom! MAS AQUI ACABA-SE NO MUNDO DOS SONHOS. Infelizmente, falta a concreticidade e a motivação. E no final, PARA TER AQUILO QUE DESEJO, NÃO BASTA SÓ DESEJAR! Não basta ficar no mundo dos sonhos! A MOTIVAÇÃO!!! 1 O que é? O que nos dá? Para que nos serve? A palavra motivação é formada por duas palavras: 1. motivo – O que leva a fazer ou a não fazer algo, causa, motivo, 2. ação – O fato de agir, operar. A palavra motivação deriva da palavra latina 'mover' – que significa colocar em movimento, levar. Antes de começar uma ação, devo ter um motivo concreto que me leva a fazer ou não alguma coisa. Agora, as contas matemática. motivo + ação = motivação. Os psicólogos indicam três elementos da motivação: 1. a direção – que desejo realizar, onde quero chegar. 2. o esforço – o empenho que dedico para realizá-la. 3. a constância – o tempo que dedico para realizá-la, não largo até não conseguir.
