Have you ever wondered how some people seem to have all the motivation in the world, while others struggle to get out of bed in the morning?
Motivation essentially comes down to unlocking your “trigger points”. These are the things that help spark proactive action toward a goal.
These “trigger points” are the fundamental keys that will help propel you toward the attainment of any objective. However, the challenge here is that these “trigger points” vary from person-to-person. What motivates you may not inspire action in another person. Likewise, what motivates them may not spark your motivation.
These “trigger points” come back to the pain and pleasure principle. How you respond, utilize and wield pain and pleasure will directly impact whether you act out of inspiration or desperation. You will either find the motivation you need to get stuff done or you’ll find the excuses that will sabotage your progress.
Motivation essentially comes down to your WHY. It comes down to finding enough compelling reasons to do something and then sticking with it till it’s done.
