                      • MOTIVATION

                        MOTIVATION

                        Root Word: Motive which means the reason for a particular action.

                        Ortez Definition: A burning desire which causes an action.

                        “A burning desire is the starting point of all achievement”

                        Napoleon Hill

                        In order to stay motivated, you must first have a burning desire. Which will cause you to take action.


                        Why do we struggle to stay motivated:

                        1. Negative environment or circle
                        2. No purpose
                        3. No desire
                        4. Rely totally on outside factors to motivate us
                        5. We spend less than an hour a week. Working on our mind and inner self.

                          6. How to stay motivated:

                          1. Ask yourself what do I have a burning desire to do. Then ask yourself what are you willing to sacrifice. In order for you to achieve what you desire.
                          2. Spend 30min each morning on personal development. Also, visualize your outcome of that what you desire.
                          3. Create a new environment and circle.
                          4. Set timetable goals and the weekly actions required to achieve them.
                          5. Reward yourself each week if you hit your weekly goals.

                            6. “Push yourself because no one else is going to do it for you”

                                Opportunity: A set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something.

                                1. Fear of what they might become and other people might say.

                                2. They don't set goals to improve. Because of the obstacles and barriers. That they will need to overcome.

                                3. Not commintmented and don't want to be held accountable.

                                2. Educate yourself in the areas of your life. That you would like to improve in.

                                3. Write down the steps needed to improve in that area of your life.

                                4. Go the extra mile: Doing more that is required to do.

                                5. Each day write down three things you did. To improve the area of focus in your life. Also, write down the one thing you could have done better.

                                Albert Einstein said that and it's always fascinated me. When you cease to learn, you cease to grow. And when you cease to grow, you cease to improve.
