Democracy is a form of government in which the people have the authority to choose their governing legislation. Who people are and how authority is shared among them are core issues for democratic development and constitution. Some cornerstones of these issues are freedom of assembly and speech, inclusiveness and equality, membership, consent, voting, right to life and minority rights.

Here’s a list I use for motivation. Hope it helps.

– Understand Your Why
“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” – Mark Twain
Understand your purpose and it will fuel your drive.
Find your why. If you don’t know what it is, create it. That will motivate you to make a difference.

– Stay Focused on the Big Picture
“Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe.” – Oprah Winfrey
There will be days where work will feel boring. The easy thing to do is to feel frustrated and give up. However, you could stay focused on the big picture. You’ve got to keep your eye on the price.

– Get Active
A lot of times it’s hard to get motivated if you’re not in a good mood. Research shows that working out multiple times a week for a reasonable period of time can reduce the symptoms of depression. Exercising for 30 minutes can also increase levels of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine which can help to reduce stress.

– Have an Accountability Buddy
“Surround yourself with people who push you, who challenge you, who make you laugh, who make you better, who make you happy.” – Anonymous
Let’s say you set a goal of signing on 100 new customers within a year. Now, share that goal with some of your closest friends and colleagues. You’ve just signed up for peer pressure. This is a great way to keep yourself motivated at work.

– Create Small, Bite-Sized Goals
There’s a reason donut holes are so lovable. They’re easy to eat. Before you know it, you’ve eaten a dozen of them. This is how goals should be too. Of course, you should have a really big and audacious goal.
However, make sure you break down that goal into bite-sized, consumable goals. This way you’ll feel like you’re making progress and you’ll also feel a sense of accomplishment when you complete the smaller goals.

– Have the Time of Your Life
“There’s no fun in a perfect life. So make a risk. Take a chance. Go where the wind takes you. Have fun.” – Jenny C.
If you’re having fun, you’re going to be more motivated to do great work. Do you notice that you’re more productive because you’re actually enjoying the work? Go out there and have the time of your life!

-Meditate
We live in a world of information overload so our brains sometimes get overstimulated, and that’s not a good thing. That’s why we need to meditate.
Calm down. Close your eyes. Lie down.
Breathe slowly, in and out. Do you feel a sense of calm washing over you? Do you notice thoughts starting to creep in? Push them out and focus only on your breathing. By meditating, you’ll likely feel happier since your stress will be reduced. When we’re happy, we tend to be more optimistic about the future. That optimism can often be a very powerful motivational force.
