Garrett Hutsko Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Wow what a great question. There are times I feel poorly and wonder if this is worth it. Mainly I just keep on driving forward one step at a time. Being motivated is difficult basically I just set a goal for the day and move towards it.

Hi Garrett, Here's one of the ways that I start my morning by listening and watching Motivation videos on youtube: Mindshift - Motivational Video - Viewed 5,614,911 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fviFNrWKzZ8 There's a whole series of them listed on Youtube. I listen to them while I'm posting ads. Frankly, this give me an unfair advantage over most marketers. gnana and jonjenkins 2 Quote Tommie Kirkland (Captkirk) Here...

Garrett Hutsko Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 This is a good idea. I myself listen to Christian Radio and find often the material both powerful and awesome and well worth listening to. GOD is great and I love learning more and more about him while I build my lists/business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
market101 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 I play competitive ping pong, sing in an a cappella quartet, read, belong to a book club, movie group, pinochle group, go to local performing arts shows and I am tearing out my lawn and replacing it with drought-tolerant plants. I won't bore you with the honey-do list. I use the computer and on-line programs to escape from all the other activities. Now, to answer your question about motivation. That's easy. Self hypnosis.

Steve Shapiro Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 There is no motivation like success. A few sales will go a long way toward keeping a person motivated. If you go day after day, spending hours each day promoting and have very little or nothing to show for it, its hard to stay motivated indefinitely. I'm not talking about "instant riches" or being at the top of the leaderboard. I'm speaking of incremental progress....just something that shows that your hard work has not been for nothing.

greg55 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 My motivation is simple. I do read blogs and watch videos but my drive comes from my wish to retire from the time clock. At 61 years my retirement is my motivation. ThanksGregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwal Richards Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I think we always have to remember "why" we are doing this. This is what motivates me because as you know there are times when things are not going well but just remembering why I am doing this keeps me focused.

jonjenkins Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Reading and listening to motivational books, and watching some videos, helps to keep me going. I also need this to fund my retirement; having a definite goal in mind is essential.

captkirk Posted June 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 I watched the movie Man on Wire today. Very inspiring! The movie based on a true story of an astonishing high wire performance between the towers of the World Trade Center in 1974. Quote Tommie Kirkland (Captkirk) Here...

mistracy39 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Think about it... in your lifetime, how many great ideas have you or someone you know come up with? And even told friends about? But it was done over a beer and no one did anything about it... Then later you saw someone on Oprah making their fortune off "your"idea? This scenario plays out over and over. What's the lesson? jackson633121 1 Quote Carter, Tracy D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrisa Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Great topic! This will help anyone who's struggling... I would say there are four things I do consistentlyRemind myself of my "why" - I watch short motivational videos on YouTube. My fav is Les Brown. YouTube is littered with Les Brown videos. This gives me a dose of inspiration. I pray I work on my mindset - along with your "why", your mindset is the fuel behind your business. Without either one you won't go very far. I use Tony Robbins stuff when I want to go deep!Once in a great while I will pick up a book on personal development, but mainly I do those four things above more consistently. jackson633121 1 Quote Get FREE Leads on Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leiana777 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Also a good way to do this is read biographys and watch documentals for those persons that achieve your goals, or similar goals that you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Thru creating my own goals and the desire to create the plan. Then by taking action on the plan. Reading good books on personal development and staying positive in working toward one's goals. Staying positive and being focused and constantly learning something new daily.
