Motivation gets you going, discipline, commitment, strong habits is what gets things done.
Grounded action is what gets things done.
Get a pad and paper, and write down one or two things that you're going to commit to
doing every single day no matter what.
You're gonna use that motivation to build a machine for yourself.
You become a machine.
You don't think about whether you're going to write in your journal or not.
You do it because you already made that commitment.
Every single day no matter what.
It does not matter if both of your hands were cut off and you have to use your freaking
mouth with a pen and write in your journal.
You write in your freaking journal every single day.
You don't think about it.
When you have built a habit, it's ingrained in your nervous system in such a way that
the brain doesn't even have to consider whether or not it'll get done.
It just gets done.
Commit once, you don't need to commit more than once.
You commit once to the thing that you're going to do, and then you do it every single day.
That every day method, is one fo the most powerful methods for reconstructing your entire
life.
We tend to become addicted to or very comfortable with, the feelings associated with who we
think we are.
Set a goal, and keep it.
Regardless of what you feel about it.
This requires a warrior mindset that say "I'm gonna make a decision, and I'm keeping it."
And regardless of how you feel about it, it doesn't matter if the world is crumbling down
around you.
There's no ifs ands or but about it.
Devotion.
Discipline.
Devote yourself to something bigger.
Be decisive about what you gonna do.
Say I'm gonna do it and that's it.
And then be disciplined about getting it done every single day whether you feel like it,
or not.
Done.
