What does success means to you? Is it difficult to achieve success? Do you know what you need to do in order to be successful in your life? These questions may seem like easy to answer, but for many people, they did not know the real answers in the bottom of their heart. A lot of people know what they want, they read success or wealth books and they get excited. However, all of these are just temporary. They are driven for just a short few days, some even just a few hours.

So the first thing you need to do to achieve the results you want in your life is to learn how you can stay motivated 24 hours 7 days a week. You have to take charge of your life; you need to learn how to manage your state. If you don't know how to motivate yourself, very soon, you will get yourself affected by the dis-empowering states from your surrounding. And when you are down, you feeling frustrated, how can you achieve much more in your life?

First thing first, what did you feel everyday? Emotions. Therefore, the first thing you need to learn is to control your emotions in order to keep yourself motivated all the time. Think about this, if you wake up early in the morning, you are feeling tired, and you hit your toe on the corner of your bed. What will you feel? Angry and in a bad mood. What happens next is the moment you go to work, you stuck in a traffic jam and you're late for your meeting. Once you reach your office, you get scolded by your boss because you just lost a $100,000 business deal.

So what happen next? You are even in a worse mood. After work, you go back home, you scold everyone, your wife, your children, simply because you are in a bad emotion. Guess what happen next, your family members' emotions too are affected by you. You scolded them without any reasons, and they get into the bad mood as well. So you see, if you cannot manage your emotions well, you are going to affect all your surroundings include your works.

However, once you learn how to manage your emotions, you will never be in this situation. Think about it, if you go to a shopping centre, and you give a big smile to anyone who passes by, what is going to happen? I bet you know the outcome of what will happen if you do this. Will you feel happier? Of course you will, because people are smiling back at you. And if you are in a good mood, will you do things better?

That is why you have to learn the basic of motivation. You need to control your own emotions. Unless you know how to manage your emotions, you will never achieve much more in your life.

The same goes for those who pursue for success. If you want to achieve amazing results today, you know that you need to stay motivated all the time. The moment you loosen up yourself, it is hard to drive yourself back into motivated state again. Thus, learn to control your emotions from now on. This is the fundamental of motivation.
