does a person needs a motivator in life or he should be self-motivated?

It is beneficial to have both, some to motivate and give you that extra push or to have the strength to keep yourself focused to get things done.

I think we can motivate ourselves if we really want to. However there are some circumstances when self-motivation is not enough. We are only humans so we also need other to help us get motivated.

I think it is a mixture of both. Relying just on yourself to get motivated need not always work, though an honest effort on your part is absolutely necessary. A person has to discover his/her own motivators. It can be music, a self-help book, a holy book, a vacation, or even friends. Yup, a trusting friend can be a great motivating force in your life and push your toward your goals. I have written an article on it. You can read it here--http://www.hubpages.com/hub/positiveminded

I think the best is for one to be self motivated.Definately, situations willc arise in life that will bring one to its wits end but it is not every time that one will see or have somebody around to motivate him or her, so , one should learn to motivate himself or herself during hard times.

I think that a person needs both self-motivation and to be externally motivated. It is important to realize that even the best self-motivated individuals sometimes need a push to get started. I believe that this is what your partner or coach is there for. Sometimes is makes me crazy; all the nagging. But I am the better for it.

You need to be a self motivated person to motivate others. Each and every person need to be a self motivator and also a motivator to others. Once you gain self motivation then you could just win anything and also motivate others to do many good things.

This is very true. To over come obstacles or reaching a goal, it is important that one must be self-motivated. You don't need to wait for an outside source to be motivated within. The belief must start from you. If you don't believe in yourself, then who else will? You have to get a clear image of want you want in order to achieve something. You need to know how you will feel at the end and your purpose of achieving your goal. This should be motivating enough. That's how you believe in yourself.

For me if a person has his own goal and is serious with his career, he does not wait for anyone else to motivate him in order to do good in what he do. I always tell my people this "Do not rely on anyone else for you to improve your performance. You are the ones responsible for your own success or failure, stay self motivated no matter what and that attitude will bring you to the top!" :)

people with healthy minds will not wait for others to motivate them. always, the tendency will be to motivate oneself without waiting for anyone to come to rescue. but the truth is, life is even so much more pressing. there are times when we feel so down and out that we need somebody to help us out. each one of us needs a motivator sometime in our lives. there will always come a time somehow.

I believe everyboby in this life needs a motivator but,one should not totally realy on somebody to encourage him or her before doing one thing or the other, or taking action where necessary. one should be self motivated. It is impottant to cultivate the habit of motivating oneself. One should activate that force from whithin himself or herself.Self motivation is the best.
