Perhaps you already know that the problem of self-motivation for a large number of people is very acute. We seem to realize that it is time to lift the fifth point off the couch and start acting, but only the ruthless alliance of gravity and laziness does not allow us to perform feats.

Step 1
There are many different ways that you can help increase your productivity. They have already been described in dozens of different articles in the most detailed way. Among them are keeping a to-do list, and breaking down large tasks into smaller ones, and meditation, as well as many other tricks that can help you. Nevertheless, there is no universal recipe that would suit absolutely everyone, and it is unlikely that it will ever appear. It is likely that the person who invents the performance-enhancing pill will become the richest person on the planet.
Step 2
However, there is one alternative way that can help you motivate yourself. You only need a little imagination to use it, and a large number of watched films or read books can be of great help.
Step 3
What is the essence of this method? It consists in the fact that every minute, every second, constantly imagine that you are some kind of ideal person. What does it mean? Each of us has our own unique view of this world, our own principles and our beliefs. On the basis of all these beliefs, our own unique image of how an ideal person, an ideal "I", an ideal man, an ideal woman should behave and do, is formed in our heads. In the view of some abstract student Andrey, an ideal man should be uncompromising, serious and work as a banker, and in the view of another abstract student, Yuri, he should be fair, with a sense of humor and work as a scientist. So, each of us sees his own ideal image of what we need to strive for. How to strive for this? As described above, you need to constantly imagine that you are this most ideal person. Are you lying on the couch and flipping through the news? What would an ideal person do if you were the person you would like to become? If you are that student Andrei, then, probably, the image of a real man living in his head, instead of lying on the couch, would start calling leading banks in search of work, would start studying banking and forging connections with influential people. Always ask yourself the question: "Am I now doing what, in my place, an ideal person in my understanding would be doing?" As soon as you imagine what your inner idol would be doing now, then you will immediately wake up the desire to do it.
Step 4
In addition, movies you have watched or books you have read can be very helpful. They partially form this ideal image in our head. Imagining excerpts from films where your favorite characters perform certain actions, you more vividly imagine how you should act in this or that case. Of course, you shouldn't wring your hands to everyone you meet, like Steven Seagal, you shouldn't rob banks, like Ocean and his friends, but you should think about what now in your place would make an ideal image that lives in your head, with the wisdom of Gandalf and the power of Sylvester Stallone, for example.
Step 5
In fact, it is quite possible that you have already unwittingly used this method. If you try to give the simplest example of the result of introducing yourself to someone else, then some motorists may remember it. The fact is that many drivers, when they turn on dynamic music on the car radio, instantly become unstoppable street racers and fearless racers. At the same time, the same people, listening, for example, to news on the radio instead of music, will go slower, because without this very musical charge, the image of a super race in the head will greatly subside.
