✏️START SMALL
Don’t start out big! Start out with a ridiculously easy goal, and then grow from there. If you want to exercise, for example, you may be thinking that you have to do these intense workouts 5 days a week. No instead, do 1 time a week, tiny, baby steps.
⠀
✏️ONE GOAL
Too many people start with too many goals at once, and try to do too much. And it saps energy and motivation. It’s probably the most common mistake that people make. You have to choose one goal, for now, and focus on it completely.
⠀
✏️EXAMINE YOUR MOTIVATION E
Know your reasons. Give them some thought and write them down. If you have loved ones, and you are doing it for them, that is more powerful than just doing it for self-interest. Doing it for yourself is good too, but you should do it for something that you REALLY REALLY want to happen, for really good reasons.
⠀
✏️REALLY WANT IT
It has to be something you’re passionate about, something you’re super excited about, something you want deeply.
⠀
✏️BUILD ANTICIPATION
This will sound hard and many people will skip this tip. But it really works.
Many of us will get excited and want to start today. That’s a mistake. Set a date in the future a week or two, or even a month and make that your Start Date. Mark it on the calendar. Get excited about that date. Make it the most important date in your life. In the meantime, start writing out a plan. And do some of the steps below. Because by delaying your start, you are building anticipation, and increasing your focus and energy for your goal.
