Motivation is a result of three things:
Persistence, Intensity and Direction.
Persistence – Time, how long you do something. Someone who is persistent doesn’t give up towards reaching their goal.
Intensity - How hard you do something. You can’t have a lackluster attitude.
Direction – A goal, what you’re trying to reach.
Without a clear definition of each, that’s when motivation isn’t there.
How to Implement Each Step To Become More Motivated
1. Persistence
- Write down one thing you’re going to do on your calendar the next day towards the goal you’re trying to achieve.
2. Intensity
- Use music that gets you pumped up, and always push yourself to your limits.
3. Direction
- Set a goal for what you want to do, very specific. For example, make $1,000 in the next month freelancing, or lose 10 lbs in one month.
