WORKAHAULIC:

          REWARDS

 1 Corinthians 9:24

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

--------------------------------------------

     Most people give up when they think there is no pleasure in doing something.

The greatest element that drives the brain to work harder is when there is a promise of pleasure afterwards. 

Working can be a stone in the shoe. You never complete tasks. Every day presents it's own task list which seems never to end and also seems repetitive. A dream can feel far and too big to tackle. And even after breaking things into small tasks, it all seems hanging without reason.

In order to run in such a way as to get the prize, you have to master the ways to run. You must keep running. In most cases, the brain understands best with two elements. The first element is pain. And the brain can do all it can to avoid pain. It will suggest all possibilities to help you get a way from pain. If a business seems painful and threatening, the brain suggests ways to run away from the pains. 

The second element is pleasure. The brain knows how to make short cuts for you to get pleasure. While it tries hard to avoid pain, it pushes you to pleasure. These two elements make the brain work too hard and intelligently.

You have to promise yourself pleasure. If you want to accomplish tasks and shift to the next level, promise yourself real pleasure 

Developed a reward system. Promise yourself of a good thing that you will get after you complete a task. 

At times I download a video of a motivation am so obsessed from the people am obsessed with and get inspired. But then tell myself I will only watch at the end of this week after I accomplish these tasks. It drives energy of accomplishment while knowing something exciting is waiting for me. The reward system shouldn't wait for long. It should be at different timescales - hours, day, week, a year but majority should be within the shortest time. Your reward should be real. You should smell, see, or even touch it but waiting. It shouldn't be something of "when I get, or ifs". It should be there waiting for you. There could be so much you plan to do yet just a drive alone is keeping you from doing it. You could know that what you dream of is indeed good but the motion energy becomes another task.

You are still responsible for all these. You have to ignite motion yourself. The good news is that when the ignition sets off, it hardly turns off till the prize is won.
