What is your desired mental accomplishment level?

Improvement mindset is the DNA that runs through every great organization.

What is your desired mental accomplishment level?

Pick the level number you desire for your mental vibrancy, using a 5k runner analogy:

  1. Olympic Gold
  2. Olympic podium
  3. Olympic finals
  4. Olympic Team USA, qualify
  5. Olympic Trials, qualify
  6. Nationals Gold
  7. Nationals podium
  8. Nationals finals
  9. Nationals, qualify
  10. College Varsity Team

Can make this list more nuanced, and definitely add more layers. But want to stop at 10 general layers.

Note the obvious difference in common sense effort, dedication, and motivation required to jump from one level up to the next.

And the jump from level 10 to level one is exponential.

Contagious enthusiasm

Everyone knows you gotta do the reps if you want to achieve something that requires effort, change, risk, and eventually, a new and exponentially better personal reality.

Do the reps.

Contagious enthusiasm.

Do you have it?

Congratulations.

You’ve made a wise investment.

Guessing your motivation to have contagious enthusiasm stems from knowing what your life would be like without it.

Note: all five posts today are exactly the same – do the reps. The exception “to exactly the same” is that there are five big choices in life – mind, body, spirit, work, home. As you read today’s five posts that sound “exactly” the same, understand all five themes need individual focus and discipline. All five personal vibrancy bars set to the highest level.

Motivated to self-quarantine?

Couple nights ago. Walt Disney World shuts down today for two weeks (for now). Cast Members are being paid.

Motivation for something that you can’t stop thinking about.

Motivation requires a goal for something you cannot stop thinking about.

Motivated to self-quarentine?

Probably not.

Here’s why motivation is missing

live like you mean it
From 2014, playing around with fonts.

Motivation is missing the status quo. No one wakes up and stays, “I’m gonna nail mediocrity today. It’s my destiny.”

No.

One.

What’s missing from most transformation?

Motivation.

Motivation requires some sort of goal that you can’t stop thinking about.

Who has a goal they can’t stop thinking about, besides you?

Almost.

No.

One.

When an idea strikes

Wrote this while at Mass yesterday morning.

When an idea strikes, write it down.

An idea normally gets typed into notes or i text myself.

Yesterday morning didn’t want to get out the phone and start typing while sitting in the church pew.

Went to old-school paper and pen.

Motivation is the root solution or the root failure to anything you want in life.
