Why You Don’t Do What You Say You Are Going To Do

When we endure hardship, it builds our mental strength and toughness. When we face difficult challenges, whether we succeed or not each time, we are nonetheless changed by the experience. If we get up again, we become stronger.’– Stuart Holah and Adrian Webster

Things will never go according to plan. But that is not enough for you to just kick your goals away. It is not enough to brush your plan under the rug. It is not enough to say to yourself that you are going to take a different path.

That is not the way to go. One of the best ways to get anything done in life is to face whatever it is that is trying to distract us.

You can do more for yourself if you are not distracted. You can do what you say you are going to do if you are not distracted, if you are not after what other people are doing.

Look, things will always happen, whether you want to deal with them or not.

So what are you going to do? Are you going to sit back and watch other people getting things done? That is not for you. That is not even part of your plan.

You are not living a directionless life. You are not living a purposeless life.

You are living a purposeful life, a life that has something to do with what you are living for. If you do not have anything to live for, that is a purposeless life. That is an empty life.

That is not for you. If you don’t want something like that to happen to you in the future, you must get to work. You must renew your vow. You must position yourself for greatness. You must be there to help yourself achieve what you want.

If not you, no one will. Remember, no focus, no success. If you want to be successful in your life, you must focus on what really matters to you.

If it is not important, don’t do it. If it is important, then you must do whatever is within your power to make it happen. The question is, ‘Will you do it?’

Why Motivation Matters

‘Without motivation, enthusiasm lacks a destination. Without enthusiasm, motivation lacks a start point.’- Stuart Holah and Adrian Webster

Motivation is good. But the best motivation is self-motivation. People can talk all they like. But to make things happen in your life, to change your life, to make your life better, to follow your heart, to do what makes you happy, you have got to motivate yourself.

No one can push you to achieve your life. No one can make you do what you do not want to do. If you want to get anything done in your life, do not wait for anyone to motivate you. Because no one can.

‘Enthusiasm sets you on your way, but motivation gets you all the way.’– Stuart Holah and Adrian Webster

Is it easy, no it is not. But if you do not get yourself up from wherever you are right now, no one is coming to get you up.

That is what motivation is all about. It is about getting yourself back up when no one is there to support you. When you are alone.

Motivation is helping yourself when no one is there to help you. It is loving yourself when no one is there to give you love.

When you are self-motivated, nothing can stop you from getting what you want. Instead of waiting for other people to feed you, why not feed yourself?

Instead of waiting for other people to give you what you already have within you, why not reconnect with yourself?
