The art of self-motivation - What really inspires us & how to train the drive for action

More motivation with this simple method

Let me introduce you to the WOOP method of Prof. Dr. Gabriele Oettingen. The WOOP method helps you get more motivation to achieve your goals in four easy steps.

Today I would like to introduce you to a simple and quick method and to get more motivation and achieve your goal better. The WOOP method. With our goals, it's always such a thing. Of course, it would be super nice to lose three kilos of weight or speak fluent Spanish, or maybe finally finish this annoying study project or doctoral thesis.

But really do something about it. I don't know how you feel, but personally I also tend to get lost in dreams and then imagine how nice it will be if I can talk fluently all over Spain or if I have finally finished this project. But the hard work does not bring that yet and this is necessary if we want to be successful.

Besides, the method I would like to introduce to you now does not change that. But I think it contains a very important aspect that we should consider when planning our wishes or goals. The WOOP method comes from a psychology professor named Gabriele Oettingen and she found out that wishful thinking alone is not enough to fulfill our wishes. But that the relation to reality is also very important. That we also deal with the concrete obstacles that prevent or prevent us from achieving our goals.

Based on this, she developed the WOOP method. WOOP is the abbreviation for Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan. These four terms describe the four steps of the method that I would like to introduce to you in detail.

WOOP ... Wish

The letter W stands for Wish and that is the starting point of this method. The best thing to do is to make yourself comfortable and find a quiet place and think about what your biggest wish is at the moment. This can be a big project, or even a very small project, maybe something long term or even very short term. For example, a short term small project would be for you to do sports after school or work. A long term big project might be like writing a master thesis, finding a new job or maybe learning to play piano.

WOOP ... Outcome

The letter O stands for outcome and the part I think we all like to do, namely really visualizing this wishful thinking. So how does it feel when you've fulfilled your wish? When you have reached your goal? How will you feel when you come home at night, sweaty from jogging? How will you feel when you submit your master thesis? Or maybe you can play Mozart's first piece on the piano in a fluent way? If we imagine the result in all its facets, it reinforces the desire to achieve this result. It increases our motivation, but that alone is the decisive factor in the method, is not sufficient. Wishful thinking alone is not enough, but we have to deal with the very concrete obstacles in the next step and that is the second O in the word WOOP.

WOOP ... Obstacle

The letter O stands for obstacle. If we just paint our destination in the most beautiful colours and shapes, it can cause us to relax too much. Because we see ourselves at the end of our journey. It is therefore very important that we bring all the wishful thinking back to reality by reflecting on the concrete obstacles. So in this step, you take a little time and think about it - what, in concrete terms, prevents me from achieving a goal? What are the problems that arise? For example, I could imagine that you have to struggle with your inner pig dog, if you want to go jogging after work tonight and your pig dog actually wants to fall on the sofa. And you have to take these problems into account, otherwise you will not achieve your goals. That is why the plan follows in the next and last step.

WOOP ... Plan

The letter P stands for plan. Gabriele Oettingen proposes plans in the if-then-form. I. e. you consider for example "If my inner pig dog becomes overrunning and I want to sink on the sofa again, then I think about how good I would feel when I come back home from jogging. Or take notes in front of only one side. Personally, I would, by the way, now in a little bit separate from these if-then formulations or, to put it another way, I would not focus so much on them. But I would simply recommend you to think about which obstacles appear and to look for the best tips and tricks. So they help you deal with these obstacles. This can be the case, for example, that you might put your sports shoes in front of the sofa, so that if you want to fall on them, they will remember that you should go for a jogging run. Or maybe you're thinking about taking half an hour off your serial time in the evening and using it to play the piano. Just think about what can actually help you to deal with these obstacles that prevent you from reaching your goals.

If you have taken all these four steps, the probability of reaching your goal is relatively high. Because the problem is, as I said before, often that we are stuck in the first two steps, that we naturally have our wishes and goals and just lose so little wishful thinking. And how nice it would be if I was on the big stage and released my first album. But we don't make this transfer performance into reality and reality always comes along with obstacles, limitations and problems. Dealing with them and taking them into account makes your project perfect.

Wishful thinking alone is useless. If you want to achieve your goals, you have to know your obstacles and plan them in!

No motivation? Tricks to get started and hold out permanently

You have an important project ahead of you, but no motivation at all? Here I give you the 10 best tips to get started and stay permanently motivated.

We all know this, sometimes you don't want to sit down on your backside at all and finally tackle the task that lies ahead of you. Whether it's preparing an exam or working in the office. Motivation has to come quickly!

I have collected the best tips and divided them into two categories. These are the beginning and endurance - because sometimes you just need this famous kick in the ass to get started. And then we have again longer-term tasks and projects and so it is very important that we stay on the ball. So what can you do to get started?

BEGINNING

1. Know why you're doing this.

This is always very important for us, because if we don't know what it is about, then we just don't want to do the things. That's the way it is! I. e. think about why you want to do this task, maybe it's just that you have to write your bachelor thesis because you want to graduate and then you can finally do your dream job. That means you're basically writing your bachelor thesis to finally design clothes or something like that.

2. Draw up a plan of action

Nothing is more demotivating than not knowing exactly what we need to do. You somehow have this big task in mind, how to write your bachelor thesis, but you don't know how to start it. And then you push it further ahead of you. I. e. create this plan of action, write to yourself in small steps what you have to do and when. And so you see in black and white what you have to do and have no more reason for any excuses.

3. Prepare yourself properly

It's best to have everything you need for the next day or for your task the night before. For example, if you are currently studying for exams, you should prepare your notebook, put the highlighter on top of it and the workbook on the table in the right chapter. Because then you only have
