MOMENTUM DEMANDS MOVEMENT!
If you have lost your momentum or even motivation, Simply take action!
Majority of people looking for motivation will wait for something, or someone to come
and motivate them before they can get up and take action to motivate themselves. This is what I’ve experienced as a fitness professional, And this is f$&ked thinking!
The lifespan of motivation is a lot like the honeymoon phase of a new relationship—it’s really exciting at first, but that feeling doesn’t last, motivation is like jelly snakes for the brain.
Confectionery.
Here’s how most people approach motivation:
MOTIVATION —> ACTION —> MORE MOTIVATION, s$&t the bed -> De motivated, loss of any will to take action.
Here’s how motivation really works
{ The Jamie Milne Action Motivation Continuum }
ACTION —> MOTIVATION —> MORE MOTIVATION -> De motivated -> MORE ACTION……….. MOTIVATION etc etc
Regardless of what you want to get motivated about, the answer always begins with action. Action is the impetus for motivation. Action is the precursor to motivation. Action comes first, motivation comes after.
The key = think big, START SMALL
What can you do today to take action? Walk, 2 push ups, eat a salad with 1-2 meals a day?
I’m sure you’ve read it all before, yet after 17 years in the fitness industry I’M TELLING YOU NOW, Think big, start small, it’s in the doing where the magic lies!
IT’S EASIER TO ACT YOURSELF INTO A BETTER WAY OF FEELING, THAN IT IS TO FEEL YOURSELF INTO A BETTER WAY OF ACTING.
