Get Motivated by Focusing on What you Want...not the Money‪!‬ Agent Success Podcast

I was listening to a podcast the other day and the topic of motivation came up...I zoned out of what they were saying and thought about my seemingly 'lack of motivation' myself lately.Barely one week into 2020 and I'm finding it hard myself to keep motivated.Maybe it's the fact that for two weeks, it was all about family, food and very little work?Or because it's winter and like most people...staying in a warm bed feels a lot better than waking up. I have slept in an extra 15-20 minutes a few times in the last week!I'm up at 5:55am every day except Saturday's a Sunday's.My morning routine lasts until 8am, have some breakfast and out the door by 10am unless I have early morning appointments.I'll put in a solid 4-5 hours of actual work daily...work on and in my business.As I write this...I can hear my "inner voice" or whatever it is saying..."You should be working 8 hours a day!"It's true, I can only imagine how much higher my productivity would be if I added an extra 3-4 hours of work daily!So...why don't I do it?Are you?I realized that MOTIVATION is what drives me and anyone else.For some people, Motivation is money. Either the lack of it, or the power to have more of it.I think I can speak for every agent out there that we're not doing this work out of the goodness of out heart.This is our work, we work for money and money is what we all need to survive...period!I'm sure that you've heard of the Law of Attraction from the movie...The Secret. If you 'wish' or have a desire for anything, you can attract it to you simply by wanting it. I don't believe that anyone can receive without a little bit of work.There has to be a little more to it.Making more money is fine...but if you want this "Law of Attraction" idea to work, try this out:Instead of wishing to attract money. Why not make a list of what you would buy or do with the money?Simply wanting a $X in income doesn't really have enough power behind it. The money itself is not really what we want...what we really want is what the money will get for us.What would you do if you earned $X income?If you were to focus on what it is that you wanted...then you might have a little more motivation to get out of that warm bed and get to WORK when you're supposed to! (speaking to myself here)Here's a little exercise for you...(and me), because I can use a little extra motivation myself these cold winter days too.Write out a list of what you want. Things that if you had that EXTRA income, you would buy it.Do whatever you needed to do to get that list in your face, morning, midday and night. If you need to stick it to your bathroom mirror or if you're like me, set reminders at different times of the day on your phone. Whatever works for you.If you're consistently being reminded of what you want daily, maybe you'll work that extra 2 hours, make those extra calls, lead generate in whatever way you lead generate.That 'want list' might be the added push we need to get us more motivated.Who's in?Email me on what your struggles are early on in 2020...I suggest we also connect, have a Strategy Session Call together and see how we get you to your 2020 goals without loosing that...motivation to do it.AgentSuccessPodcast.comAgentSuccessStrategySession.comGet a Copy of our Book Here:To get a downloadable pdf of Agent Success...How Any Agent Can Dominate in Any Market, simply send me an email for it: robert@realestateadvisorsinc.comTo schedule a Strategy Session over the phone, visit: http://agentsuccessstrategysession.com/
