10 Traits Of Highly Motivated People 


You know a highly motivated person when you see one. They seem unbeatable in the face of a challenge and possess more energy than a pink bunny with a drum…but what exactly are the character traits that help them stay that way?

Purpose

Highly motivated people are able comprehend and internalize the bigger picture. They see how their work fits into the whole, and therefore don’t start feeling like the smaller components of the journey are meaningless.

Optimism 

With a positive vision of what could be in the future, motivated people gain energy to go about their work towards the happy outcome they envision.

Self-Esteem

It’s hard to do anything when you don’t feel like you can do it. But motivated people know their strengths, and they believe in themselves.

Bravery

Motivated people delight in taking on new challenges, and they don’t back down from risk. They’re not afraid to take chances, get mistakes, and get messy—just like the teacher on the Magic School Bus.

Energy

Motivated people have the requisite energy—mental, physical, or emotional—to move forward with their plan and fight the good fight. 

Persistence 

People with high levels of motivation don’t just give up when the going gets tough. They buckle down and stick to their guns.

Perspective 

Highly motivated people don’t get it twisted with the small stuff. They know how to sort through life’s myriad concerns and ignore the little things that could pull them off course.

Reflective

When you lose, don’t lose the lesson, an old adage goes, and motivated people get that. While bravery, energy, and persistence are some of their sterling qualities, that doesn’t mean they make stupid choices. Motivated people reflect on the process and move forward with intelligence and strategy.

Humility 

Motivated people also have perspective on their own strengths and weaknesses. An arrogant person will quickly run up against a wall again and again as opposing egos clash with their quest. By contrast, a humble person will have an easier time carrying out their plan, taking feedback, and adjusting course as necessary. They’re not offended—their eyes are on the prize, and they’ll take the help they need to get there.

Celebration 

Motivated people enjoy success and they celebrate it. It’s not about throwing it in other people’s faces, but about appreciating the hard work just done, and looking forward to a new journey. 

So you see, highly motivated people hold developed habits rather than inherent talents. Your route to success is about progress, not perfection. With devotion and a tenacious spirit, you too have the ability to make your ambitions a reality. So, go out there, take every opportunity, and let your unwavering desire propel you towards the great life you deserve!
