I recently wrote and published a book titled “Where Motivation Begins:Discover the Power Within”. I never thought one day I would be writing a book but indeed I did and it turned out to be a very wonderful experience.
Why Did I Write “Where Motivation Begins:Discover The Power Within”?
There are many books that have been written on the topic of motivation and why did I write my book? Well, basically I wanted to share to people about my life experiences and how I motivate myself on a daily basis. I believe the principles and experiences that I share will be helpful to the readers.
I love motivating and inspiring people. I am motivational speaker and have done so for the last 13 years of my life. I have come across many people who need motivation in their life but don’t know where to start. In my book I have explained and shared my personal experience in terms of how to unlock internal motivation.
What Separates “Where Motivation Begins:Discover The Power Within” From Other Books?
So often we rely on external things to motivate us, maybe listening to a motivational talk, watching a motivational video and so on but when we rely on external factors to motivate us, we run into a dependency state and a short lived drive.
So for me, this book is about really understanding our internal motivation and looking at what drives us which is far more powerful and helps to give you a longer drive in terms of you pursuing your goals and dreams in life. When you follow the principles that I talk about, it helps you to achieve strong motivation.
Motivation is simply a gentle push towards the things that you are pursuing in your life. Often we get demotivated, in the book I look at what are the reasons that people get demotivated and how to overcome them. Often the most important answers in life are found within us, when we take time to seek for it.
Conclusion
The book is a practical book and you can read it in one sitting. The target audience for the book is the younger generation, however I believe adults also can read it because the principles that I talk about are universal and is applicable to all age groups. So grab a copy today! For Malaysians you can grab a paperback copy in Shopee Malaysia.
