Hi,
I would suggest that you
begin by doing an objective self evaluation. Ideally you must
focus on your strengths and abilities and aim to make the best of these assets that you posses. At the same time
be realistic about your weakness (e.g. your fear of public speaking ) and systematically work towards eliminating it. It is important that you WRITE down your long term, medium term and short term goals preferably following the SMART goal formula. Do not forget to periodically review your goals and make changes as you deem necessary. You must
periodically benchmark your progress with those of your peers not merely as a measure of evaluating competition but to give you a realistic feel of how you are faring.
Once you know your goals it becomes relatively easier to focus
on being motivated. While the
extrinsic motivators would be vital for career growth and financial well being, in the long term it is the
intrinsic motivators that will determine your passion, zeal and persistence to achieve your professional, personal, financial, social and self actualization goals. You also need to regularly identify, enjoy and celebrate the big and small success that you achieve, to keep your enthusiasm high, your motivational levels at peak levels and reinforce your own self belief.
Find out new challenges in your job. These could be opportunities for you to leverage your creativity, discover some hidden talents and potential in the process and also make an impression on your superiors, subordinates and clients. To grow you need to
take on new responsibilities. Seek such opportunities by volunteering, accepting gracefully difficult assignments and expanding your work profile.
I would also invite you to go through the inputs in the following Inspirational and Motivational blogs listed below, which can also give you a lot of inputs on keeping your enthusiasm, spirit and zeal alive and dynamic.
