What DRIVES You? (Instant Inspiration EVERY Morning)

by Dennisknows
9 replies
Being in internet marketing, I noticed that a lot of people fail a few times and then are on the edge of giving up....

This is a business where only the strong survive...

... I know because it took me a year to really start seeing money where I could say I was MAKING MONEY

But my question is WHAT DRIVES YOU TO KEEP GOING?

If you're reading this and need instant inspiration, here's what I did...

I set my iPhone up with 5 alarms for every single day. I give every alarm a specific inspirational description that goes with the day...


Notice the description say "Last day of the week; END WITH A BANG"

Along with the description, you should also find 5 songs that really get you pumped to be proactive..

...I'm talking make you want to get up and fight a bull

It can be music or 5 motivation speeches!! Whatever works for you...

REMEMBER THIS

Whether rich or poor, black or white, etc, WE ALL GET 24 HOURS IN A DAY!

Your success is defined by how you use those 24 hours...

Sleep is the new broke so you need to be waking up early and getting a head start on the competition...

Have a blessed day!

Dennis

    I think often of the quote by Jeff Olson--Successful people do what unsuccessful people are unwilling to do. I personally find that very motivating

      Appreciate the tips...

      What drives me is the thoughts and pain I felt from being laid off for over a year and a half back in 2009. Being told over and over by different companies, "We are not hiring at the moment, but if something comes open we will be sure to call you!"

      If I need motivation I have quotes and etc, but what really gets my blood pumping is the thought of how I felt not having the funds I needed, when I needed them.

      This my be a little far out, but if I do not do anything towards my business every day I feel as if I'm going backwards x 10...

      Like Dennisknows stated, "We all get 24 hrs in a day. Your success is defined by how you use those 24 hours". It's up to us on how we use it. When you sit down to work on a site or if you are visiting a client but your everything in it as if it is your last! Reason being is because Time Waits For No Man!

      Let's Get It Y'all!

    I start my day with a cup of my favorite coffee and the fourth movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. I find that it gets me pumped and in the zone where I'm ready to kick some butt and bring in sales. Also, I keep my goals sheet interlaced with quotes ranging from Napoleon Hill to my favorite, Matthew 7:7.

    "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you."

    Hope this helps, folks.

    This post is why this forum is so useful! Little tips like this are what I love to hear because it motivates me to know that other people are actually doing things like setting inspirational alarms. I have an app that helps me set goals and alarm for those goals but I will try this out

    The fact that other people are doing these things motivates me because it makes me want to be that much better each and every day!
