Motivation / / December 19, 2019
Do not think - do
Tim Grover, Michael Jordan's personal trainerStop thinking. You already know what to do, and you know how to do it. What stops you?
Rather than analyze and to think, act. Listen to the feelings, trust yourself completely and rely on instincts. All right decisions you make with the help of intuition. All wrong arise as a result of the unwillingness to listen to the inner voice.
As soon begin to think, know that you have already lost. Reflections is slowly but surely being taken away you are from the correct path.
Be prepared for anything, and then will be free to rely on instinct
Hone mastery. While others rest, you need to practice and bring their skills up to the ideal. Grow. Learn to do something automatically, you will be free to break the rules and create something new.
When the mind alert, time for you if slowing. You see a lot more than others. While others try to understand the situation and find the right solution, you can modify the reality of the way you want to.
Money - a bad motivator
Surround themselves with beautiful things nice, we will not hide. But it is better if the party motivation, such as money or prestige, is not there. Even if you remove these catalysts, you still need to check themselves, destroying the boundaries of the possible, to strive for more.
Do you know why? When you get money or power, they will not be able to spoil you. This happens to many people.
Never be satisfied with the result
Even after you reach your goal, do not stop. Now you need to go a step further and see how you are hardy, capable and tireless.
Look forward to that received, and just keep moving forward.
Control your all and always
In contrast, those who depend on external factors, you can easily control what happens to your body and how you spend your time. Please act according to their instincts, but not pulses. You know that what you can do something, does not mean that you do. And if you do, because you want to, not because they have to.
Do not lie Me
About 70% of Americans admit that they hate their job. Only one in three US residents consider themselves happy. I think statistics for Russian show about the same data.
Respect yourself and live the way you like it. If you feel that your life goes where is not there, turn. Immediately.
Do not relax
Most people are able to withstand the pressure only in small doses. As soon as the opportunity is issued, these people begin to relax.
But not you. You can not ease up. On the contrary, gradually strengthens it. It will be always on the alert, always active.
Do not be afraid of the consequences of errors
Most people do not want to climb too high: fear that the fall will be painful. You, preferring high-flying, putting yourself at great risk. And that's good, that's right. If something goes wrong, you just mark the event as a mistake, Adapt and fly farther.
Do not compete with others. Let them compete with you
Take a look around. People every day are competing with other people. They constantly compare themselves with others. Without even noticing, they repeat for the other, trying to find the "secret of success".
Try to move away from this competition. It is pointless for you. It knocks down the right path. Get rid of extraneous noise, focus on what is important. Now let others try to catch up on you.
Stop learning
Ordinary people are looking for entertainment. Extraordinary person trying to learn something new. If you want to be the best in what you are doing, do not stop learning. Hone skills. Multiply knowledge.
This luggage is your advantage.
Let's be honest: very few people want to work as long and hard to keep up with you.
success is not enough
Many people dream to become "successful." But you have to be a little of this. Having achieved some success, you have to run forward more quickly, feel the pressure and tension intensified.
We reached the goal? Excellent, and now focuses on the following.
Do not let success to break you
"Success can be a catalyst for failure," - says Greg McKeon (Greg McKeown), author of the bestseller "Essentialismยป.
People do not stand the test of success, power or privilege. All this destroys the people, makes them lazy. Because ordinary people, getting what he wanted, stops and stops acting.
But there is no such scenarios for you. You are your own overseer and evaluate themselves. Nobody can push you harder than you yourself. And it's not that specific purpose. After all, after it will be next, and then - another. And only you know when to stop.
Take the most out of their defeat
"Recognize mistakes, take responsibility and develop a plan to meet the new challenges - only successful team capable of it ", - he said Joko Villink (Jocko Willink), author of a book about leadership based on personal experience of service" sea lion ".
Do not blame. Do not build illusions. Only cold, terrible truth. Defeated? Accept it. Only the ability to take responsibility and make conclusions give way to freedom and control.
Let your work speak for you
Job well done:
- rare;
- valuable;
- the original (copy will be hard).
Bad quality of the work done:
- normal;
- It has great value;
- anyone can do so.
Chatter is not worth anything. Anybody can do it. It is easy to play, but the value is questionable. On the other hand, a good job - it is such a rarity that it begins to speak for itself and will never go unnoticed.
Work on your mental stability
"Psychological resistance is undoubtedly one of the most important skills of a professional high-end, and it must be developed. As for me, I have again and again looking for new ways to become more stable psychologically. When I feel uncomfortable, I try to avoid it and come to terms with it, "- says Josh Waitzkin.
The better you work under hard pressure, the farther you can go. Others break down, you're just going to move forward.
The best training that you can afford to arrange - the psychological. All what you train your mind and body will understand. Where are your thoughts, to go and life.
Confidence - your main weapon
You've probably heard: Marathon - test more than a psychological, rather than physical. A person's ability to run tens of kilometers or to do something else, not less complicated - it is a reflection of his self-confidence, and not of his talents and inclinations.
Your confidence is determined by:
- the scale of this goal;
- likely to achieve it;
- the ability to experience failure.
If you do not believe in yourself, you will never achieve anything. If you possess uncommon confidence, no matter how many times you make a mistake - you still waiting for success.
Surround yourself with people that you can look to the future, not those who recalls the past
If you surround yourself with people, reminiscent of the past, it will be very difficult to move forward. That is why we are stuck in a certain role, and with great difficulty coming out of it.
Surround yourself with those who you want to be like, if you give up ownership of the past and start life with a clean slate. Now you create yourself.
Hold, but do not forget
You need to get rid of emotional baggage. But that does not mean you have to forget about those who have offended or betrayed. Forgive them, but did not erase from memory - just to never deal with these people any business.
Install clear objectives
You need to set specific goals. For example, to write 500 words a day, to sell 100 items per month. Only then will you be able to evaluate the result and see if you got what you wanted. Long-term goals can be a bit blurred - then they motivate stronger and not so scary. As for short-term goals, one needs to be very honest and put a very specific task.
Responds instantly. Do not analyze
Teach yourself to act at the very moment when it is needed. Stop the internal dialogue. Do not analyze. Do not ask "why me all this." Just do it.
Simply - the best
Albert EinsteinIf you can not explain it in simple terms, you understand well enough.
Difficult to be very easy. Most of the words in science and business is too complicated to understand. Sees at the root, as difficult as that may be. It is there that is true, and it is - in simplicity.
A very small percentage of people able to tell you the truth. Ask a question, and, most likely, will hear in response: "Well, it's not so simple," or "You know, there are many points of view on this issue ..."
Wisdom - timeless. Wisdom - in simplicity.
Do not envy other people's success
You should want the best for everyone. Even for those you consider to be your competitors. Jealousy and envy - this feeling coming from your ego and fear-based.
Why do you enjoy other people's victories? Why not. Someone else's success does not concern you. You're in control of himself. And you are different from other people. They do not know how what you are able to. They do not know what you know. You have unique abilitiesThat you can apply. This is what is to do.
Use every chance
Every miss - it's a failure. Most people do not use half tucked opportunities because they're afraid to lose.
The only way to achieve success - is to stop to reflect and begin taking calls destiny. Not when you are comfortable or desirable. Always.
Focus on the process, rather than the result
When you begin to get something worthwhile, it is very easy to relax and start to drift.
Keep practicing, bring skills to the ideal. And never forget what has cost the road until this very moment.
Do everything ten times more
Most people are gradually increasing their activity. Their goals are increased slightly. They are just a little bit smarter and faster. You need to play a proactive and increase its power at once in ten times.
The question is only of one thing: if you really want to achieve this new, distant, a big goal?
Nice to amuse myself with thoughts about what will happen if you start to earn ten times as much. And what about that really want this? Will you be able to convince yourself that your potential is ten times more?
Set goals larger than your ability
If your goals are based only on the fact that you already have, and logical reasoning, it would be difficult to convince themselves of the need to go beyond the limits of the possible. Set goals that make you afraid, to doubt, but still move towards the impossible.
Do not say, "Oh, if it were all a little easier."
Say "I would like to be a little better."
Leave time for recuperation
When you focus on results rather than on the work itself, then you are running at 100%, then the same 100% relax. But this is wrong: you need to constantly show the maximum performance, leaving short breaks for rest.
As a break from work without losing concentration? Make a note in the diary, listen to some music, spend time with your family or prepare dinner. These simple things will not only help restore power, but also show that for which you work.
Start before you are ready
Chinese proverbThe best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time - is now.
Most of the people are waiting. What? The right moment. When there is more money. When they zavedut necessary acquaintances. But not you.
You started as early as last year. Five years ago. You started before you have any answers to the most pressing questions. You started when nobody believed in you. All you needed to do so, - the inner voice saying, "Let's go!"
If you need approval, do not do it
Many successful businessmen are recognized: the more often they ask something like: "What do you think, maybe I start a business?"
In fact, if you need someone else's approval and blessing to begin to act, you do not need to do anything at all.
Do something only need when you You can not do this.
Do if you are not willing to put up with the existing reality. If your ideas do not give you sleep at night.
Nobody will ever give you permission to perform dreams.
Do not make exceptions
Do not let yourself indulgences. After one exception drags another. You do not compete with other longer - only with yourself. Each exception - it's a loss.
Trust yourself and act, not surrendering and not caving in under their same weakness. Now you do not stop!
