People often come to me with problems of motivation. It is what make s us do things we want to do and things we don't. Motivation makes us climb mountains and lack of it, leaves us with regret in later life. So how do you find your motivation?
Here are three tips to help you get motivation back in your life:

1. Know what you want!
So you want to be famous, why? Is it money, attention or a fancy house? Once you know the root of why it is you want something, then you will know what is motivating you.

2. Give yourself the Tools!
Motivation does not just come from your mind, you also need to have a healthy body. When you have a healthy body and mind, you have the energy to achieve your dreams. This is why it can be so hard for people to lose weight. Once your body has all the pressure and strain of the extra weight, the last thing it wants to do is be active. So start small daily exercise and before you know it, you will be charging towards your goal.

3. Have a clear picture!
One of my most motivating tools is to vision your final goal being achieved. Picture yourself in a room, surrounded by people. You have just achieved your goal and now you are celebrating. Hear what people are saying to you. Watch how you stand, talk and act. Smell the different scents around you. Feel how good it is to be you in that moment. I suggest doing this every morning before you start into your day and before you know it, your vision will be a reality!

About the Author

Siobhan Sims, life coach and self-improvement writer, began her love of coaching while working in Philadelphia after achieving her B.A. Honours Degree in Social & Political Studies and I.T. The company she was working for, was all about positive living and having a balanced life as an employee. Siobhan was hooked and on returning, searched for a company that had the same mission in Kilkenny, Ireland.
However, it was not to be found and in 2006, after a serious health scare, she left her job as a manager to work part-time in a bookshop, a dream of hers from a young age. It was during this time that she was able to decide what she wanted from life and her future. She realised that her calling was to become a life coach and enrolled with the ILI and became qualified a year later, specialising in stress management.
She started her own company and while being in demand, especially for her inspiring workshops, found she missed the social aspect of working with other people. That is when she started managing Khan's Books in Kilkenny and found she was able to write her books, coach and still have the aspect of being social and surrounded by her two favourite things in life: people and books!
She is married and living in Kilkenny, Ireland, and is currently preparing for the release of her book, "Did your Day Count? - Learn to get Balance and Direction in your Life!
If one thing is evident from the life of Siobhan Sims, it is that with hard work and direction, you can achieve your dreams.
