How to Get Motivated Every Day When You Wake Up

mail

It’s Monday morning. The alarm rings. What’s the first thought that comes to mind when you open your eyes?

“I really don’t want to go to work today”, “I have such a long day ahead, what a dread”, or “Yes! It’s a brand new week ahead! Looking forward to getting lots done.”

Whatever your response may be, ask yourself this question:

“What is it that made you feel unmotivated?” What was driving you to feel negative or positive about your Monday ahead? How to get motivated?

Meet Nancy

I used to have a colleague by the name of Nancy. She came to work at the same time every morning, and would leave at 6.30 sharp every evening. Not a minute earlier, not a minute later. She was known to be the office grinch as she was often grumpy towards everyone, so much so people would avoid her whenever possible. She complained about everything under the sun.

I had a brief conversation with her one morning in the office lounge where we were both getting coffee. She told me she had been working with the company for over 20 years! When she told me that, I asked her what motivated her to stay on for so long, and her reply was simply “I don’t know. It’s a job that pays the bills, and is close to where I live.” With that, she walked away and I was left standing alone in the lounge with my hot coffee, at a loss for words.

How could someone be doing the exact same thing for over 20 years? And she clearly doesn’t enjoy her work, what with all that complaints and grouchy attitude. So why hasn’t she done anything about it?

The 2 Types of People

This might be an extreme case, but I’m sure you must know of people who have been doing the same thing for years and seem to not have any problem staying stagnant. Whether it be in their marriage, job, or personal endeavors, they seem to be getting along just fine without progressing towards anything ‘better’.

On the other hand, I’m sure you would also know of individuals who focus on the positive, set goals and are constantly pushing themselves to greater heights. Be it promotions at work, building a family, celebrating milestones in their marriage or relationships, upgrading houses and cars, setting up new businesses, or going to school again, these individuals seem to constantly progress towards something that improves or enhances their life.

So what’s the difference between these 2 category of individuals?

What you feel like or don’t feel like doing, boils down to one thing. And that is motivation. It is the force, or lack of, that keeps driving you forward to overcome challenges and obstacles to achieve your goals.

Without motivation, you’ll give up after a few failed attempts or even on the first tough challenge that comes your way. Or, in the case of Nancy, just remain where you are: unhappy yet not doing anything to progress ahead.

What is Motivation, Really?

Whether you realize it or not, motivation is a huge force in your life; and it needs to be harnessed in order to excel and actually enjoy whatever it is that you’re doing on a daily basis.

Unfortunately, many overgeneralize the word motivation. We think of being either motivated or demotivated as a simple “yes” or “no” state of being.

But motivation is not a switch. Motivation is a flow. To feel motivated, you need to dive beyond the surface. Just reading a motivational quote, being encouraged by your friends or even mentor won’t help you build sustainable motivation in the long run.

You can think of the motivation that we want to achieve like the Sun (self-sustaining and long lasting), which supplies a constant influx of energy to all life on Earth. Just like the Sun, your “motivation engine” has different layers, starting from the core and spreading out to the surface. The surface is what you see, but the real process is driven from the core (your internal motivation); and that’s the most important part… I’ll explain why in a moment.

If you can create a self sustaining motivation engine, you’ll not only be able to find more meaning and purpose in your life, but you’ll be able to enjoy every minute of what you’re doing, which will make your roles and responsibilities less of a chore. Now wouldn’t that be a game changer?

Let me help you understand this motivation flow better, by breaking down the Motivation Engine into 3 parts:

1. Core – Purpose
2. Support – Enablers
3. Surface – Acknowledgement

I’d say we’re most familiar with layers 2 and 3, as we come into direct contact with both of them frequently.

The Third Layer: Surface – Acknowledgement

The outermost layer, also known as Acknowledgement, encompasses any type of external recognition that might give you motivation. It may come in the form of respect or recognition, such as compliments and praise.

Or it could be emotional support through encouragement, feedback and constructive criticism. It could also be affiliation, where you have mutual companions or buddies sharing the same goal or burden with you.

This is generally what you see on the surface when you look at other people. You see the external acknowledgement, respect, and recognition they’re getting.

The Second Layer: Support – Enablers

In essence, the second layer of the Motivation Engine (also known as Enablers) is what supports your goals. They can magnify the motivation core you have, or speed up the momentum that you build. Basically, they create favorable circumstances for things to go smoothly.  

The Innermost Layer: Core – Purpose

But what’s most important, and the true driving force behind your Motivation flow, is the innermost core – your Purpose. Your purpose is what differentiates the motivated from the demotivated, the achievers from the underachievers, the happy from the unhappy.

Your motivational core is your Purpose, and is sustained by two things: Having Meaning, and Forward Movement. With these two as a foundation, you’ll have a power source that will feed you motivational energy indefinitely.

So, how do you do these two things?

How to Sustain Your Purpose

Having Meaning is simple. Just ask yourself a question: Why?

Why are you pursuing a certain goal? If the reason is vague or unclear, then your motivational energy will be the same. While motivation provides you energy to do something, that energy needs to be focused somewhere. So without meaning, there is no direction for your energy to be focused on.

Yet, having a meaningful objective doesn’t mean you have to change the world or create A huge impact on society. The secret to meaningful work is simple: it should contribute value to something or someone that matters to you.

Next up is gaining Forward Movement. In short, this means to just keep moving. Like a snowball, motivation from having progress creates momentum. So to keep this up, you have to keep moving.

And the good news is, your progress doesn’t have to be huge for you to recognize it. Small amounts of progress can be just as motivating, as long as they keep coming. Like driving a car, you may be really impatient if you’re at a complete halt. But, it lessens if you’re moving forward–even if you’re moving slowly.

 

Creating a simple progress indicator like checklists or milestones, are a great way to visualize your small (and big) wins. They trigger your brain to recognize and acknowledge them, giving you small boosts of motivational energy.

This is why video games are so addictive! They’re full of progress indicators everywhere. Even though the progress is completely virtual, they’re still able to trigger the motivation centers in your brain.

Find Out What Drives You Today

So why not take some time today and do a quick reflection of where you’re at now? Take one aspect of your life that you’d like to progress further in.

For example, it may be your current job. First, start with why. Write down your reasons for why you’re in the job that you’re in. Then think about your Motivation Core: Your Purpose. Write down what it is within your job that gives you meaning, and what are some things that will help push you forward in life.

Once you have those points, it’s time to do a comparison. Does your current job help you make progress towards that Purpose that you’ve written?

If it does, then wonderful! You’re on the right track. But if it doesn’t entirely, or you now realize you’re way off target, don’t panic. It’s definitely not too late!

Here at Lifehack, we offer you a FREE Webinar to help you develop unstoppable motivation: Activate Your Motivation – Fast Track Class

Don’t miss the valuable opportunity to give your motivation an instant boost!

Staying Motivated and Happy

Happiness need not be a vague term or illusion that you’re constantly chasing after–with no end in sight. By finding your true motivation, you’ll be one step closer to realizing your happiness and finding meaning in all things you do.

You may have tried many solutions to help you stay motivated and found that none of them really have any impact. That’s because they bring about incremental changes only, and permanent change requires a holistic approach. It requires more than just focusing on one area of your life or changing one part of your routine or actions.

You want to make a fundamental change; but it feels like big, unknown territory that you can’t afford to venture into at this point in your life.

The truth is, taking your life to the next stage doesn’t have to be this complicated. So, if you’d like to take the first step to achieving your life purpose, the time is now!

DO YOU NEED TO HAVE AN EPIC LIFESTYLE, RESULTS OR SOCIAL PROOF TO SUCCEED WITH AFFILIATE MARKETING???

I often get people who come to me and they want to start their affiliate marketing business, but they feel their lack of results and their boring life is going to prevent them from getting sales.

I can understand why they might think like this because when I started I had a lot of these beliefs myself.

When you start out online you see people like myself who can travel the world, have tons of social proof from helping other people and we make things look easy.

Then you look at yourself and your lack of results and think “why would anyone listen to me?”.

Well, I can tell you that from personal experience that you don’t need income screenshots to get sales.

And you don’t 🙅‍♂️ need to travel the world 🌍 or have an epic lifestyle to get sales.

99% of my content was valuable posts sharing tips and my lifestyle content was pictures with my family just showing people I’m a normal person just like them.

I share a lot of my travels ✈️ and lifestyle now, but I want you to understand that it is not what is going to get people to buy products from you.

When you play the role of the relatable beginner you focus all your content on what your audience wants, needs, and cares about.

Your goal is to simply provide valuable tips to help your audience so they look at you as their trusted advisor.

People are not robots 🤖 and they don’t buy products because the sales page is amazing. They buy from people they Know, Like and Trust.

When your content is focused on your audience and not yourself then you don’t need income screenshots, travel pics, and social proof.

Understand people don’t care about you they care about themselves and how you can help them.

So if you want to get people buying from you then this is what you do:

✅ Focus on giving as much free value as you can.

You should be focusing all of your content on what people want to learn, struggle with, or what they need help with.

Your #1 goal every day should be how can I help other people get what they want not how can I get someone to buy something from me.

When you truly are sincere and doing your best to help other people they will “feel it” and they will attract to you and they will start to open up to the idea of purchasing products you recommend.

You have to really care about other people to be successful. You can’t just show up, make a few posts and people start buying from you.

People are naturally skeptical from all the BS people teach on the internet so you have to show them you’re different and you’re someone they can trust.

If you don’t know what content to create then look at successful people in your industry and model them. Don’t over-complicate this!

✅ Guide them to the solution to their problem.

The only way you will make money is by giving people the opportunity to become a customer.

The beauty of affiliate marketing is that you do not need to be the one who is the expert, you don’t need to have helped anyone get results and you don’t need results yourself.

So once you start attracting your audience then you need to guide them to the product or the person who can help them.

When you’re a beginner don’t try to get creative by doing advanced marketing methods. You want to plug into what works.

The easiest way to get sales is to recommend people to your mentor or the product you’re promoting and rely on their sales process.

Keep things simple and you can scale your income much faster.

✅ Show up daily and remain consistent regardless of your results (Extremely Important!)

If you want to be successful with affiliate marketing and make the big bucks then don’t focus on the result of getting a sale, focus on mastering the process of creating your content, attracting your audience and guiding people to the solution to their problems.

You don’t need income screenshots, social proof, or lifestyle shots to make sales.

You need to focus on the people you’re trying to help and guiding them to the solution that can help them.

As you grow, as you get results and once you have a cool lifestyle then leverage it, but it’s not needed 😊

6 FUNDAMENTAL HIGH PERFORMANCE SUCCESS HABITS THAT WILL TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS.

6 FUNDAMENTAL HIGH PERFORMANCE SUCCESS HABITS THAT WILL TRANSFORM YOUR BUSINESS.

If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude. For those of you who don't know, I'm an ardent follower of Brendon Burchard. For the ones that don't know him, Brundon Burchard is a New York Times best selling author and one of the words leading high performance coaches. In one of his podcasts he stressed the importance of developing this high performance habits and I'm going to share them with you so you can start implementing them right away. 

1. SEEK CLARITY - this means that you need to ask more questions, read more, learn more to have a clear idea of what you are trying to accomplish & how you are going to do it. For those of you who have booked consultation with me or anyone else you are already seeking clarity, you are on the right path. 

2. GENERATE ENERGY - be alive, be exciting & be motivated. Power plants generate energy & we are power plants, you don't just need energy for yourself but you need to project energy to everything around you. To your family, your friends, your clients/customers, your business etc. Have you ever been around someone that exudes energy? When you are around them, you instantly become more alive, more happy, more motivated; that's who you need to become. 

3. PRIORITIZE NECESSITY - ask yourself what's absolutely necessary that you serve with excellence today, who needs me on my end game; my clients, my family, what is your why? To be successful you need to prioritize necessity so you always have something pushing you forward even when times are hard. 

4. INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY - procrastination & lack of productivity is the number one killer of businesses worldwide, I remember when I first started, majority of my hours were wasted scrolling through social media & engaging in conversation that weren't helpful. So how do we stop procrastination? This may sound like a cliche but it's as simple as getting rid of all distractions, schedule block time when you are going to work. You can download website and ad blockers which will block all those notifications & keep you away from those distractions until you get shit done. Identify outputs that matters the most & obsess yourself with it, other things can wait. 

5. DEVELOP INFLUENCE - high performance people teach other people how to think, they are role models. Every single thing you do online, from a Facebook status to an Instagram post is influencing people so make sure you are intentional with your influence. Everybody is an influencer in their own way, the only difference is the size of their fan base. This one is very important because your potential customers/clients will eventually check you out so make sure you are portraying the right image from onset. Engage in Facebook groups, provide value in your profile, ask questions & provoke responses to get people engaging with your profile/page. Be someone whom your clients wants to work with before even meet you, be a person of influence. 

6 DEMONSTRATE COURAGE - you need to listen through the fear, when we first start a new adventure, it's natural to be overwhelmed with fear; the fear of failure & the best way to overcome this is by listening through the fears. Listen to what you are told, listen to what you know, listen to what others have done before you. For example, you are cold messaging people and you are not getting responses back, it doesn't mean that your scripts doesn't work, it doesn't mean that social media marketing doesn't work. If it was so, why will there be so many millionaires that made it using social media marketing?. The only difference between them and you is that they listened through the fear, trusted the process, carried on relentlessly and demonstrated courage. That is it guys, the six high performance habits that will transform your business. 

Take note & implement.... Cheers to your continuous success.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ADVERTISING & MARKETING

(What you need to know as a small/medium sized business owner to improve your brand/business appeal).

 Advertising for me is making average things for average people and screaming about it enough that the masses in the middle decides they need it. Marketing is not that, marketing is about what you make/sell, how you make it, the stories you tell. Your local church does marketing, even your local non-profit does marketing. If you need people to take Covid-19 seriously, you need to do marketing. I like to see the global climate change as a marketing challenge rather than a technology or science challenge. 

Do you know why? We have done a bad job in helping people understand their choices. Advertising is the art of making your products/service known to a market place or an audience while advertising has to do with both research and practice. Marketing takes into consideration market research to uncover consumer behavior that enables you come up with stories that will resonate with your target audience/marketplace while advertising involves creatives like design and multimedia production. 

In marketing research is used to gather data to support your marketing efforts, it let's you know when and where to place your advertising. As a small/medium business owner, do you use data to support your advertising to ensure it converts well?
