MOTIVATION IS YOU

Preface
I have never been motivated myself
ever till I got to know what is
motivation.
People
around
me
always guided me around lot of
major factors of motivation, but it
was strange for me that none of the
factor or process worked on me.

I was losing all my hopes in life and

was sure of quitting what I was
doing. I decided that I am not
capable
enough
of
doing
or
achieving things.

I have never been a topper in school

and was never considered among

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

bright students. My parents were too

much concern about my future and I
was always been given examples of
some of my friends and cousins (you
know a common trend followed by
parents)
yes,
sometimes
a
comparison can be a motivational
factor, but for me it didn't worked
and somehow I was able to pass my
schooling with no great results. My
parents were not happy but yes I
was happy as I was feeling like I am
out of prison. For me school was a
prison when I actually realised I was
fool in thinking so.
I know my parents were not happy
with my results but yet they always
motivated me "yes you can do, do

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

better next time." but my next time

never came.

I was sure I have something which I

need to do but something was
missing within me and I was not
able to understand the factor which
was missing.

I wanted to do best and wanted to

make my parents feel proud, I knew
that I will be able to but how?
When? What was missing? I never
knew this till I read a story
somewhere... it all started and I
knew what was missing.

"Am I dead or alive, am I

here or there"

About a hundred years ago, a man

looked at the morning newspaper
and to his surprise and horror, read
his name in the obituary column.
The news paper had reported the
death of the wrong person by
mistake. His first response was
shock, Am I here or there? When he
regained his composure, his second
thought was to find out what people
had said about him. The obituary
read "Dynamite king dies" and also
"he was the merchant of death".
This man was the inventor of the
dynamite and when he reads the

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

words merchant of death. He asked

himself a question, " is this how I
am going to be remembered?" he
got in touch with his feelings and
decided that this was not the was he
wanted to be remembered from that
day on, he started working towards
peace. His name was 'Alfred Noble'
and he is remembered today by the
great Nobel Prize.

It really made me think, what is

something I can do so I am
remembered and my family is proud
of me.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Ask yourself

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Ask these from yourself and

here beings the first step:
What is your legacy?
How would you like to be
remembered?
Will you be spoken well of?
Will you be remembered with
love and respect?
Will you be missed?

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

It's not about life, it's about moving

from one place to another. When
you move from school to college,
college to profession institute, from
masters to corporate and each level
you leave few memories and few
people, you need to give something
to everyone so that they remember
you. Something they cherish about
you. Do something for society
everyday.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

"If you can imagine, you

can achieve."

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

You might amaze yourself

with what you discover you
can do.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

"Never give up, never

look back.
Be always on your feet.

Just say, "I must, I can

and I will,
And success will be your
treat."

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Believe in yourself.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

BELIEVE IN
YOURSELF

The first and foremost factor is

"YOU", you need to have faith in
yourself. Have belief in yourself. You
need to understand that if you have
capability of dreaming big than you
also have the zeal to achieve the
same.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

"Motivation is ME, the

motivation
starts
from
you. Don't search for the
factor which motivates
you, the factor is already
within you."

MOTIVATION IS YOU

DREAM & GET OUT

THERE
We humans are far different from
anything ever observed. We have
the amazing capability to perceive
the world around us, and use what
we know to make something from
nothing, either in our mind, or in
reality. Our minds have endless
capacity for knowledge, and there is
no limit to how much we can learn
and create.

We are always overlooking the

advanced capabilities of our own

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

minds,
never
imagining
the
important thing: how much you can
do if you tried. With no limit, we

have no reason to stop building, and

stop imagining.

Get out there, and do something

amazing, because in the end, there
is no wrong way to live your dream
in the fullest.
You have what is needed to achieve
your dreams. Never think you can't,
be motivated always & think "Yes I
can, I will" and the success will be
there soon.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Yes I can, I will.

GOAL

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

SETUP A GOAL, A
SMART GOAL.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

SETUP A GOAL, A
SMART GOAL.
Everyone wants to get something
sooner or later, if you wish to achieve
something or anything sooner or later
you need to setup a goal. A goal which
is defined by purpose, a goal that is
measurable. A goal that fulfils your
dream.

Ashutosh Bhatia

WHAT IS A GOAL?

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

WHAT IS A GOAL?
Setting up goal for a student I want to
pass
my
highschool
with
good
percentage is NOT a goal, setting up
goal, "I want to pass highschool with
above 80%." This is a goal.

Set up a meaningful goal, a goal which

is measurable.

"Goals are your dreams." always

remember person who succeed in life
had dreamt of what they have now and
they have not stopped dreaming till
now. The dreams come every day.
Have you ever imagined why you

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

dream every day? The way you have

dreams everyday, you need

to understand you need to setup goal

for everyday, a goal for a day is what
will make you achieve goal of long
term.

A farmer had a dog who used to sit by
the roadside waiting for vehicles to
come around. As soon as one came he
would run down the road, braking and
trying to overtake it. Once day I asked
the farmer do you really think your
dog is ever going to catch a car" The
farmer replied, "That is not what
bothers me. What bothers me is what
he would do if he ever caught one."

Many people in life behave like that

dog who is pursuing meaningless
goals.Set up goals which deal with

Ashutosh Bhatia

your dream, dream for them and set

goals to achieve them.

Ashutosh Bhatia

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

PLAN YOUR GOAL.

You need to rule your dream, your

goal. Divide your long term goal in
parts, make these parts a short term
goals. Now start targeting for short
term goals and you will see the
magic of planning.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Goals must be SMART

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Goals must be

SMART Specific

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

1) S - Specific, Make your

goals which are specific. Setting
up target like " I want to lose
weight" this is wishful thinking not
a specific goal. It becomes a goal
when you pin down to "I want to
lose 5kg in 90 days."

Make your goals specific not

wishful.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Goals must be
S

MART Measurable

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

2) M Measurable,

The

goals must be Measurable. If goals

are not Measurable then accept it
now that those are not achievable,
the results at the end will not be
what you were looking for and you
won't be able to justify your goal.

Ashutosh Bhatia

3) A - achievable, Stating I
can bring stars for you my dear, is
not achievable, that might look
wonderful when you hear. Goals,
which look nice from far, amaze you
when you think about but in reality
somewhere in your heart you know
that it's not practical or achievable
than don't ever try to go for it. You
will lose. Make goals which are
achievable.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

3) R - Realistic, Be practical
in setting up your goals. As I stated
before it should be achievable same
way it should be realistic. If you
have setup the goals which are not
realistic in nature for sure at the end
you will realize your goals were not
set properly & you wasted all your
efforts.

Ashutosh Bhatia

5) T - Time Bound Goals cannot start without a date

and end without a date, goals need
to have date associated with them. I
want to lose weight, I want to be a
millionaire, I want to quit bad habits,
imagine these type of goals which
we place every day for ourselves,
and other side of coin states "you
have never achieved them" goals
without targeted dates are not
achievable.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Dreams are
achievable, make your
dreams goals. Goals
can only be achieved
when they are realistic
and are targeted with
date.

Analyse Yourself

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Once you have setup your goal, you

are all set to take up the first step.
The first step to achieve your goal is
most important. You need to make
inventory.

"Make inventory of your

strengths and weaknesses"

Take a piece of paper and list of all

your strengths and weaknesses.
Write it on a piece of paper and
make an action plan to overcome
your
weaknesses
which
might
become hurdle in achieving your
goals.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

"The goals are easy to achieve if

there is no hurdle in between." but
practically that is impossible as life
comes with hurdles and challenges.

Ashutosh Bhatia

Remember what your

weakness as you walk
everyday with your
goal.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

your goal.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Most important with the start is that

you always need to remember your
goal always. The day should not
start without remembering your goal
and shouldn't end without recalling
it.

towards achieving your goal.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

"I am not happy today, I am feeling

dull, I am really irritated. Etc" all
these talks or thoughts lead to
negativity and will never let you
achieve your goals.

motivational factor.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

We know that we must have to

achieve Success in life and we tend
to not take action. We have many
reasons for not achieving what we
want. Many times though we know
that logically we are right we tend to
move away from it, the reason being
Emotions. Emotions are what drive
us
everyday,
every
moment.
Imagine that you are on your bed
and your mind knows that it is good
to do exercise, you talk to yourself,
"Do you want to do it today? Or shall
I start tomorrow?" and you know
this emotion that creeps in decides
your fate. This small difference could
create a huge impact in the quality
of your Life.

Time of Adversity

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Time of Adversity -

Learn to Smile

We human have the tendency to

deal at the time of adversity and
circumstances in a negative manner,
this is the way we humans are
programmed, We want to lash out
every time something bad happens
to us. But that is not the way to
handle life, at least not a happy,
joyful life.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Time of Adversity -

Have Faith
In the most difficult & bad time, you
need to accept and have faith in
yourself, the time you lose faith you
lose smile. There is nothing wrong in
trusting yourself. You are the master
of yourself & you know best about
yourself. During the hard time first
and foremost you need to remember
that you should recognize your
skills. And there is no end of your
skills, you need to always have trust
in yourself & say "There are more".
The first and foremost factor which
will give you the zeal.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Sometimes bad phase & failures are

good & should come occasionally in
small or big way, Instead of viewing
your failures as failures, view them
as learning opportunities. Everything
that goes wrong in your life is an
opportunity to learn, so embrace it.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Time of Adversity -

Dont blame God or

Destiny.
God & Destiny never want you to be
in trouble or bad phase, its your
acts which lead to you in bad time,
and as we dont have ability (being
human) and calibre to accept our
mistakes so we always have the
habit to blame god & destiny, since
birth we have been listening god
didnt wish, so it happened , Its
bad time, will pass away. Think
once , how bad time will pass when
you your acts are not working for it.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Its your bad time & you are sitting

holding the story of good time in
your hand, thinking what good you
have done in past, but this will never
lead you or make you come out of
the bad time.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Time of Adversity -

Keep Smiling
Funny things, funny people, funny
books, funny shows, interesting
friends, hang around with these
things. The most interesting part for
these is that once you start laughing
you will not be able resist yourself.
Smiling is always a choice we have,
and believe me its easiest thing to
do. Smiling will not change your bad
time but for sure it will change the
way you look at adversity. I meet
lot of young talent across and they
come to me stating Ash, you dont

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

know what I am facing, its easy for

you but not for me.
Yes right, this is the time when I ask
people to smile, your smile will put
up the brave face, keep going, be
motivated and try to make best of
the bad situation you are in, this
moment will not last for long if your
actions towards resolving dont stop.

You can smile anytime, anywhere

with or without any reason, try it
now, have believe that you can
smile.

The simple act of smiling would put

you in better mood & will let your

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

brain take some positive action to

overcome the problem you are in.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Time of Adversity Ask yourself why?

You need to know why you are in such

a situation where the motivation for
you is not working, things are going
wrong. You need to know what have
you done wrong to get into this
situation where you are sick of yourself
more than anyone else, think about
your acts or actions from past, accept
your mistakes.

Its not only the positive thinking which
matters, to get positive results from
positive thinking, you should also take
positive action. Positive thinking would
make you happy, good-natured and
optimistic. It will also make you aware
of opportunities but Positive action
would make positive thinking work for
you and bring the results you want.
Take action, to make things happen.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Dont let your

mood control your
life.
Lot of people have the tendency that
they come up with answers like I am
not in a mood, I dont wish to do
anything rightnow, not feeling good.
Especially for them its important to
understand that you dont have to let
your mood control your life. Time
never stops, it goes on, Letting moods
control your life is like sitting in a boat
and letting the waves and currents
take you wherever they please.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Developing inner strength and selfdiscipline is like attaching a powerful

engine to your boat. With this powerful
engine, you will be able to navigate the
boat of your mind wherever you want.

Ashutosh Bhatia

MOTIVATION IS YOU

Hope is the rope.

Yes its true; as soon as you lose hope
you lose the way. Never lose hope, no
matter how bleak things look. Hope is
the rope that will pull you up. It is your
connection, your stairway, to get your
dreams and expectations realized.
Never leave the rope of hope.

spend it wisely. The money you earn is
important to you & you spend it wisely,
your pocket money as a student is also
something you cherish to spend but
wisely. The money is bank is
withdrawn on important occasions,
same is with time. Spend your time
wisely, dont waste your time in
gossiping around & wasting it on things
which have no meaning or are not goal
oriented. Spend it on something that
helps you, adds value to your life, gets
you somewhere, and helps other
people.

success.
What you do every day will turn into
habit. Choose habit that lead to
success & repeat them every day with
time they will become automatic, not
requiring efforts or attentions in
sometime. Your habits are very
important & lead to your success.
Wrong of bad habits lead to investment
of time which has no outcome & is of
