Motivate and Believe in Yourself. Confidence in your abilities plays a big part in your overall success. Knowing why you want to achieve success plays a big part in your confidence. Are you doing it for your family, friends, yourself or the world? This is your motivation. Once you've determined your motivation, the reason you are trying to achieve, success, then use motivational tools - videos, inspirational posters, etc. - on a daily basis, to keep yourself motivated and feeling good about what you're doing. Look in the mirror each day and say to yourself, "I can do it!". Take time each morning when you wake up and throughout the day to close your eyes and envision the future you (how you'll look and feel when you've achieved success).
