Lacking Motivation? Here's Why..

5 replies
There's a very simple formula to calculate motivation:

Success Feeds Motivation: The More You Win The Hungrier You Get.

The reason I put all my focus on taking consistent, massive daily actions that improve ALL areas of my life is that growth creates motivation.

You'll never be as motivated as when you reach a new peak in whatever you do, and the higher you go, the easier it is to go even higher.

For example, I started my Instagram channel about 3 weeks ago. I post 3 times every single day (a quote, a picture and a video) and also make sure to grow the followers every single day. Within two weeks I reached 1,200 followers, which I felt good about. I was growing at about 100 follower per day for the first 2 weeks. Then something happened, I SURGED up, instantly I started getting 250 followers every day or more! This has gone on since and in just 1 week I went from 1,200 to almost 3,000 followers!

Once this higher speed of growth started, do you think I'll want to go back to 100 follower every day? **** NO! That's why I make sure to keep adding fuel to the fire and hopefully even reach the NEXT surge that'll propel me even higher!

This is also the reason that CHEATING is such a bad idea. Once you get fast, short-term results from cheating, lying or whatever unethical behavior (steroids maybe?), you'll be extremely hungry to continue to doing it because we're interested in fast growth. So the solution is to just not go into these areas.

This also happened to me with my YouTube videos. I began uploading 5 videos every day almost 3 weeks ago and immediately I got 5x more views. The more I do this though the more tricks I learn to get more views. Whenever I find something that helps me get more results (more growth) from my efforts, I'll immediately add it to my set of daily goals because I'm HUNGRY for the growth!

Next time you're lacking motivation realize two things:

1. The only way to get continuous, increasing growth is through consistent action.
2. Massive action is single best way to ensure massive, exponential growth.

That's why my motto is Massive Action * Consistency * Time = RESULTS.

      We spend too much time learning and not enough taking action! What I like about your 'massive action' is the exponential factor it produces. I've learned how to make videos and get them online. But I've never uploaded more than one video per week. You are giving a key to any 'would be marketer'. Focus on one thing and just do it (massively)!

      I actually posted an Analytics update yesterday regarding my results since I started uploading 5 videos per day two weeks ago.

      Thanks for the kind words.

      And by the way I don't focus on one thing and do it massively, I focus on EVERY SINGLE AREA OF MY LIFE and focus on doing it massively every day. I'm building my LIFE not my BUSINESS.

    Great point and excellent work on that Instagram following!
    Success tends to come slowly at first, and then it snowballs to massive quantities over time if you don't lose momentum. That's why consistency is important.

    I'd have to add be consistent with what works though. Some people tend to be consistent on things they "think" works, but actually contributes very little to success.

      Sure that's a good point. Do remember though that Stallone was consistent for 3 years in approaching hundreds of agencies until one of them wanted him in a movie! So results aren't always there

    That's an excellent formula Wayne!

    I find it easier to be focused, putting in work everyday working towards my goal, by starting the day with a positive thought. and it sure is amazing to enjoy and celebrate those results while we set our next goal.

      Yeah dude absolutely. I write my goals down every single morning and that definitely is why I start my day right, along with seeing all the new comments and likes/followers/subscribers for my social media accounts
