Maslow&#8217;s Hierarchy Of Needs. Many of us get as high as Esteem Needs and stop never having the spiritual awakening to become self-actualized. To do this we must go deep inside and find our true calling and purpose. We must tap into the creative being that lives inside of us and begin to understand that we are divine children of GOD and his plan is bigger that we can imagine. In an effort to build the motivational pyramid we must become action takers by understanding the messages that are being given to us.<\/p>\n<h2>Spiritual Awakening: The Motivational Pyramid Blueprint!!!!<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4969892285908176&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=208&amp;h=183&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0When building\u00a0 anything you need a blueprint so that you can see what the finished product will look like. The same goes with the spiritual awakening plan as you begin to build your motivational pyramid.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts2.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4799476631797925&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=218&amp;h=166&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>The first level is self motivation for you are the only one that can create what you desire. Start by stating I am motivated to______________________________. I have the power to create. I will move positive in the direction of my desire. Make a list of what motivates you and then create the goals that are realistic and attainable\u00a0 and post them where you can see them. A great tool is to laminate a business card with your daily, weekly, and monthly goals with your action steps so that you can carry them with you to keep you self motivated.\u00a0 There will be set backs, however for every set back there is progress to be made. A great way to keep motivated is to keep doing positive things for yourself and being grateful for the positive things. Sometimes all it takes to be self motivated is to change the words we use from I have to or I need to I get to. This small shift changes the way you look at things and creates a positive vibration and a good feeling that you strive to repeat.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4798682039518504&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=183&amp;h=152&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0The second level of the motivational \u00a0pyramid is the encourager level. At this level you begin to surround yourself with people that believe in you and will encourage you on your spiritual journey toward self-actualization. These can be life coaches, counselors, fitness trainers, or colleagues who lift you up. It is important to find encouragers that will serve you and be there through the good\u00a0times and the challenging times. Encouragers are those who genuinely build you up and will give you\u00a0direction in a loving and nurturing way. They are the ones who will be honest without being hurtful. They are the ones who will show you a way and let you soar. Sometimes encouragers are found just when they are needed as the universe will conspire to send you the right people to encourage your efforts.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts2.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4905016866505473&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=281&amp;h=188&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0The third level of the motivational pyramid is motivating others. By shining your light and moving forward in the positive direction of your dreams you are giving permission to others to shine their light. By showing people what you have done and how you continue to grow in mind, body, and spirit you motivate them to continue.\u00a0 By sharing your gifts you motivate others as they see what you are doing and then see that they can do it too.\u00a0 You can motivate through writing, through speaking, and simply by doing.<\/p>\n<h3>Spiritual Awakening: Tools Found in The Motivational Pyramid<\/h3>\n<p>In the motivational pyramid you will find quotes and affirmations<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4671581118661890&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=220&amp;h=173&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"220\" height=\"182\" \/>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4981961174419479&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=250&amp;h=173&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"205\" height=\"182\" \/>\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts2.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4916759318825497&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=211&amp;h=185&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/><a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/media-cache-is0.pinimg.com\/550x\/7c\/1f\/35\/7c1f3587fc214851ec843d2d3ac6b57b.jpg\" width=\"176\" height=\"187\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You will also find videos that can serve to motivate you<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fh1uff62SO8\" height=\"315\" width=\"300\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v5Vp57T8eMI\" height=\"315\" width=\"300\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3GRtq3proKk\" height=\"315\" width=\"300\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ADGnIi9KrLQ\" height=\"315\" width=\"300\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kio_SbjjFrY\" height=\"315\" width=\"300\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>You may come across some books in your motivational pyramid<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4644475568785311&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=125&amp;h=183&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4527940209018759&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=136&amp;h=188&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4730503731937903&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=238&amp;h=181&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4533076995408983&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=251&amp;h=182&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4837671761739884&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=107&amp;h=164&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4779998942134766&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=164&amp;h=187&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts2.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4710115569107729&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=122&amp;h=178&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4572994431354770&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=119&amp;h=175&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4842516455883038&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=127&amp;h=185&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"110\" height=\"185\" \/>\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=HA.72136725268&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=164&amp;h=171&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"148\" height=\"171\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You may find photos of inspirational people in the motivational pyramid<\/p>\n<p><a><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.5017175631530427&amp;pid=1.7\" \/><\/a>Nick Vujicic was born in Melbourne, Australia with the rare Tetra-amelia\u00a0 disorder: limbless, missing both arms at shoulder level, and having one small\u00a0 foot with two toes protruding from his left thigh. Despite the absence of limbs,\u00a0 he is doing surf and swimming, and playing golf and soccer. Nick graduated from college at the age of 21\u00a0 with a double major in Accounting and\u00a0 Financial Planning. He began his travels as a motivational speaker, focusing on the topics that today&#8217;s teenagers\u00a0 face.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts2.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.5066271376343137&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=106&amp;h=169&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts1.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4900331037984460&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=276&amp;h=171&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>Ben Underwood was a remarkable teenager, who loved to skateboard, ride his bicycle and play football and basketball. For\u00a0 the most part, the Californian 14-year-old was just like other kids his age.\u00a0 What made Underwood remarkable was his ability to master these activities\u00a0 despite the fact that he was blind. Underwood had both eyes removed after being\u00a0 diagnosed with retinal cancer at age two. To most people&#8217;s amazement upon\u00a0 meeting him, he seemed completely unfazed by his lack of sight, defying common\u00a0 stereotypes about blindness as a disability. So how did he do it? The answer is\u00a0 echolocation: the sonar navigation technique used by bats, dolphins, several\u00a0 other mammals and some birds. As\u00a0 Underwood moved about, he habitually made clicking noises with his tongue; these\u00a0 sounds bounced off surfaces and, with each return, added to Underwood&#8217;s\u00a0 perception of his surroundings.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4817167593243686&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=255&amp;h=173&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/>\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/ts3.mm.bing.net\/th?id=H.4544102193628870&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=140&amp;h=180&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Theresa Goh Rui Si<\/b> (<a title=\"Chinese language\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chinese_language\">Chinese<\/a>: \u5434\u854a\u601d; <a title=\"Pinyin\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pinyin\">pinyin<\/a>: <em>W\u00fa Ru\u01d0s\u012b<\/em>, <small>pronounced\u00a0<\/small><a title=\"Help:IPA for Mandarin\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Help:IPA_for_Mandarin\">[\u01d4 \u0290w\u00e8is\u0268\u0301]<\/a>; born 16 February 1987) is a <a title=\"Singapore\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Singapore\">Singaporean<\/a> <a title=\"Paralympic Games\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Paralympic_Games\">Paralympic<\/a> <a title=\"Swimming (sport)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Swimming_(sport)\">swimmer<\/a>.
