Psychological effect of songs

In my previous article about the psychological effect of songs I discussed the fact that whatever you see, hear or imagine affects your beliefs and so your life, for example someone who always listens to slow music may tend to become a romantic person while someone who always listens to motivating songs will tend to be motivated.

Based on that information I have selected a few motivating songs that you could use as a standard of comparison, please note the main aim of this article is not to let you download those specific songs, simply because am sure that out there you may find lots of similar ones that are good too, but the aim of this article is to let you know how to pick a motivating song.

Motivating songs

• Breaking the habit tonight by linkin park: All the positive messages in that song could directly program your subconscious mind and help you in quitting bad habits( see a detailed analysis of breaking the habit psychological effect
• Remember me by Josh Groban Not only the words are motivating but this song will be the favourite song for over confident people, people having superiority complex and the overly proud of themselves.
• The Mass by ERA: Not only the words can motivate you but also the music, listening to motivating music will tend to make you motivated throughout time, you may not be able to understand a word of that song but definitely it will motivate you
• Stand My Ground by Within Temtation:Perfect choice of wording, this one can really pull you up, i even wrote a special article about it
• Holding out for a hero: This one is good too, not that motivating compared to others but its still a good one
• Pale,Within temptation:Every line in this song could motivate you, those people have did a great job selecting their words, this song is perfect for anyone who is going after a goal
• Evanescence: Generally all Evanescence songs tend to energize people, I tried working out while listening to them and I got good results, just make sure you pick songs that does not contain false ideas that could put you down like my immortal
• Recommended sound tracks: I strongly recommend those sound tracks, The rock sound track, van helsing (journey to Transylvania), last samurai (red warrior) and King Arthur (woad to ruin)
• Music composers: Those people are real good you can just download randomly any of their music, Alan silvestri, Hans Zimmer and James horner.

This is just my opinion

After all am not asking you to listen to what I like to listen to, just pick the song that suits your personality but pick ones that could motivate you and avoid ones that could negatively impact your life.

I would be glad to receive feedback from you about adding new songs to this list, if you have a motivating song that you do recommend for other readers just use the question submission link below and submit it to me.

Did that help?

Yes, but you said "whatever you do hear or see can affect your life", what else other than music can affect my motivation levels?

I guess i lack motivation because of other reasons that i am not aware of
