How can I motivate you, what’s stopping you?
People always ask me why I’m so motivated in my life
They don’t understand why I strive to push myself in all the areas of life that I find valuable, rather it be health, relationships, or my business.
The truth of the matter is that my drive in life is not some magical concept that is only attainable by a few members of society
But rather motivation is something that is already within everyone, it’s just a matter of uncovering it
Once a person realizes their capacity to accomplish anything, and finds the things in their life that truly move them because they are PASSIONATE about it then you will find a never ending pool of confidence, love, and desire to push yourself in all areas of your life
One of the blocking paths to being motivated in life is a lack of passion in life
Passion can be found in any aspect of your life, from your intimate relationships, to your work, to even your dreams
The problem is that most people don’t have many things that fuel true passion in their life
They are working a job they don’t love
Or they are in a relationship that is founded on connection rather than true love
Or maybe they just aren’t happy about the things that used to bring them joy in life
The key is there is NO PASSION
Does this mean you should quit your job, leave your partner? And move to India to be a monk with no worldly possessions?
Not at all
But rather your should rediscover the passion in the things you do
There is a reason you are in the relationship you’re in, there is a reason you work the job you work
You need to dig deep and discover what initially enticed you in these areas of life
This is the ground floor for reigniting the passion in your life, and recultivating personal motivation in your life
By discovering what got you into the job, relationship, or whatever area of life you can discover why you do what you do every day
This gives you personal perspective and allows you to rediscover the passion in your life
Or even possibly find out that new passions existed that you never knew about
With passion in your life, the ability to apply it to other areas merely requires a shift in your focus, the passion for your desire to be physically fit for example can be used as leverage for building new relationships
Once passion is back in your life, you now have vastly expanded your potential to accomplish things in not only that area of your life, but in any area of life because you have “refueled” yourself so to speak.
By having drive in life, it will be reflected in all areas of your life, up to and including the nuances in the way you walk, talk, and act in everyday life
No longer are you walking through life like a hamster in a wheel, but rather you have a new found drive in life that is causing you to reassess all the things that matter to you, and gives you the potential to push yourself harder and faster than ever before
