Do you do what you know you should do, no matter what, because you know it will give you the results you desire?
I am not a disciplined person.
In fact, discipline turns me off.
But, I am determined.
Determination motivates me more than discipline.
Discipline feels punitive and like something I want to resist.
Whereas, determination, that’s more my jam!
That gets me going.
We are all motivated to avoid pain and seek pleasure. When you leverage both, that gives you a powerful motivator to take action to get what you want.
What motivates you to do what you’ve gotta do to get the results you want in your life or business?
What pain is so overwhelming to you that you would do anything to avoid it?
What pleasure is so intoxicating for you that you can’t help yourself to do whatever you have to to obtain it?
It isn’t enough to want something.
Think about the details of what you want.
Then set some goals that are very specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timed. SMART goals keep you honest because it is clear whether or not you achieved them.
Then you have to develop a practical and realistic plan to take action to achieve your goals.
It isn’t enough to dream and hope. There are specific things that work to get the results you want.
There is no secret to success.
You set goals, develop a plan, and take action.
It isn’t a one and done kind of thing.
Success requires consistent action over time.
Then it gains momentum and before you know it, you’re there!
It is boring most of the journey. We human beings aren’t good at delaying gratification. But, being consistent and doing what you’ve gotta do over time pays off and is worth the effort.
That isn’t easy all by yourself. That’s why successful people hire coaches.
They know they need someone there to support and cheer them on and also to kick them in the ass when they need it.
So, what motivates you to do what you’ve gotta do to get the results you desire in your business?
Do you need help with that?
