Staying motivated is one of the toughest aspects to any goal you set for yourself. You’ll start off the journey with extremely high spirits, energy, and excitement; but eventually what was a goal has now turned into a burden. There are many things you can do that will help you stay on track, but nothing compares to this one little piece of advice. When you can teach yourself to follow this advice no task will be too difficult!
Little Piece of Advice
Whenever I feel despair and lack motivation (it happens a lot when you start a business) I take this little piece of advice from the Navy SEALS. They say focus on today, do what you can today, and don’t consider how long the road is or how difficult the journey may be; do everything you can do, today. Repeat this mantra every day, the only aspect of the journey that you should focus on is the DESTINATION. It will be difficult, but everything in life worthwhile is. Stay focused on today, and be sure you’re doing everything you can to achieve your goals today. Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.
You Can Respond One of Two Ways
Never allow yourself to be bogged down with everything that you need to do to accomplish a goal. There may be some difficulties and unknowns that you will face but with every challenge you are faced, your response will only be one of two things: either fear, or confidence. Which way will you respond to a challenge?
Focus on today, do what you can today, and don’t consider how long the road is or how difficult the journey may be; do everything you can do, today.
