Motiv8 Ninja v3.0 is coming soon!

Hello ninjas,

It has been a while since my last update and I apologise for that.
The main reason for this silence is mainly the meditation that I need from time to time but also the fact that the ninjas in the dojo have been busy updating our app.

So what’s the update you will ask, well we thought that getting motivational quotes is nice but the home screen did not show more than one at a time. So we thought that this is not acceptable for ninjas like us. We had to do something about it and this is what we did…
The quotes from the past 7 days will be listed for you to share, love or simply say thank you with an arigatou to the ninja who motivated you. You will be also able to see my daily motivational quotes. 🙂

Another update is the ability to see the number of quotes and arigatou sent and received. A mini profile of the ninja on the top of the screen to remind you your ninja name in case you forgot it…

The new version will be soon available to everybody but if you want to have a go before the official release you can always download the Beta version from the store.

That’s all from the sensei for now.
I will be back soon with more news on the ninja or anything else that the ninja clan finds interesting.

Keep motivated and keep motivating!

Stephen Hawking week on Motiv8 Ninja

Hello ninjas,

Here comes the Sensei again… 🙂

I hope you had a very good week motivated from the quotes of Og Mandino. We also had the release of the latest version of Motiv8 Ninja with the addition of the widget to keep track of all the motivational quotes you receive. I have to say that I really like this feature. In fact, I like it so much that soon will be added to the home screen of the app so that you can keep track of all your activity from a single screen… and not only… 😉 I can’t say more about that, you will have to wait for a little while to see for yourselves.

A new week means new author for the daily motivational quotes, this time we chose a man that he is the definition of motivation and hope, Dr Stephen Hawking. There isn’t much we can say about this brilliant man. Regardless his condition, he has been a hero in life and one of the most brilliant minds in history.

We just want to say thanks to this great man for his contribution to humanity and science but mainly for showing us that no matter your situation, you can do amazing things. – THANK YOU –

More info about the life this amazing man can be found here.

Have a lovely week ninjas full of motivation!

New version of Motiv8 Ninja is now live

Hello ninjas,

It has been almost a month without updating the app but this is because we are working on big things for the app!

In this version we included a widget for you to keep track of all the motivational quotes you received. Just place the widget on your desktop and see the motivational quotes flowing! 🙂

You can even select the sensei on the top of the widget to get a quote and send it to your fellow ninjas or if you want to look for the quote yourself, just tap on the nunchucks and you will get redirected to the attack screen to select your preferred quote.

So have go and try the new feature and let your sensei know if you like it.

Keep positive, passionate and motivated,

Sensei.

Og Mandino week for the ninjas! Enjoy!

Hello ninjas,

I hope you had a great week and you are now enjoying your Monday. I know Mondays are not the best days for most people but thinking about it… I see them as the starting point of something incredible. Everything has to start somewhere so why not make Mondays the starting point? It is worth trying! 😉

This week we decided to dedicate it to an author that gave us several great quotes, Og Mandino (1923 – 1996). He wrote several success and motivation books including the famous The Greatest Salesman in the World. The 10 scrolls of this book are fascinating and could described as… Each scroll have a principle designed to replace bad habits built up over a lifetime which “threatens to imprison my future”. Here is the list of scrolls:

  • Scroll I – I will form good habits and become their slave.
  • Scroll II – I will greet this day with love in my heart.
  • Scroll III – I will persist until I succeed.
  • Scroll IV – I am nature’s greatest miracle.
  • Scroll V – I will live this day as if it is my last.
  • Scroll VI – Today I will be master of my emotions.
  • Scroll VII – I will laugh at the world (Keep perspective)
  • Scroll VIII – Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
  • Scroll IX – I will act now.
  • Scroll X – I will pray for guidance.

Og Mandino
Fair use, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=11820655

Another interesting fact about Og Mandino is that he tried to suicide but luckily he discovered success and motivational books that captured his attention and eventually made him one of the best motivational speakers and writers.

More info can be found on wikipedia.

This is all from me for now ninjas, enjoy your week and keep motivated.

Summer is over but Zig Ziglar week is here to motivate us

Hello Ninjas,

Another week is gone and this time summer is gone as well… But no need to worry as we have Motiv8 Ninja to keep up motivated! After the Helen Keller week it is now time to get our daily motivation with quotes from Zig Ziglar.

Zig Ziglar (1926 – 2012), was a motivational speaker that went though a few tragedies in his life. Despite the tragedies, he kept motivated and positive throughout his life. You can read more about his life here

As always, we are working hard on the next features of the app and soon you will see them in action! 😉

If you have any ideas that you would like to see implemented in the app then the only thing that you need to do is to let us now and you might see your idea in the app in the near future.

Be motivated and keep motivating!

Sensei.

This week we show our appreciation and respect to Helen Keller!

Hello ninjas,

I hope you had a fantastic week fully loaded with motivation!

It is always difficult to be motivated when we know that the holidays are gone and most people are now back to reality… but this is the reason we created Motiv8 Ninja… and there is always next year to plan ahead 🙂

When I feel a bit down I like thinking of the next holiday or an event that will change my routine and make things a bit more interesting. A good example is Halloween, I know that I am not going to have any holiday during that period but knowing that there is something to celebrate, even if it is something small, makes me feel much better. Another example is that some people from my family will be visiting us for a week and this is going to make our everyday routine very interesting.

But enough with my theories about life 🙂

As Thomas A. Edison week came to a conclusion it is time to show our appreciation to another amazing person… Helen Keller. I have to be honest and admit that I did not know Helen Keller until I started finding loads of her quotes and made me wonder who that person might be. I have to say that I was impressed with her attitude in life and how she managed to become the first deaf-blind person to earn a bachelor of Arts degree… And this is not all…

I am not going to copy the info from wikipedia, instead I will give you the link and I would suggest you read about the interesting and inspiring life of Helen Keller.

As always, we are working on adding more features in the app and soon we will have the latest version released with another surprise for you. We are pretty sure that you will love the new feature… Can’t say more about that… you will have to wait! 😉

That’s all from me for now, have a good week ninjas and don’t forget to motivate your ninja brothers and sisters.

Be motivated and keep motivating,
Sensei.

Let’s celebrate Thomas A. Edison week

Hello ninjas,

Another week has passed and we had loads of fun releasing Motiv8 Ninja v2.6. In this release we mainly improved the performance of the app and fixed a few annoying bugs!

We also got motivated with Bob Marley quotes and hopefully you liked my Rasta Ninja style! 🙂

This week we will be getting motivated with quotes from Thomas A. Edison. We really like his quotes here at the dojo and we find them really motivating and inspirational. We hope you like them too!

But who was Thomas A. Edison? Here is some info from wikipedia:

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and the long-lasting, practical electric light bulb.

This week we also released our promotion video of the app. Have a look and tell us what you think 😉

Enjoy your week and remember to keep motivated and help others get motivated!

Walt Disney week

Hello fellow ninjas,

I hope you had a fantastic week and you are now ready for the new one!

For us here at the dojo it has been a brilliant week as we released the Arigatou feature on the app. I really like getting feedback on the motivations I sent, it keeps me motivated!

This week will be dedicated to Walt Disney. The man who introduced to us Mickey Mouse and his gang… I have to admit that I have my disney movies collection that I started years ago and I am really proud of it 🙂
