    • Careers

When I’m looking to move something forward I’ve found better results by getting clear about what I’m committed to rather than searching for motivation.

Highlights



* Where does motivation come from and where do you get it?

* Motivation is illusive and there is a better way

* What if you aren’t motivated and that isn’t a problem?

* Motivation as a by-product of commitment

* Partial commitment is no commitment

* What are you committed to in your life?



* How much time and attention do you give them?

* What would your life look like if you were committed?





* If you were committed what would you do?

* Straight-Line Leadership: Tools for Living with Velocity and Power in Turbulent Times by Dusan Djukich

* Time Warrior: How to defeat procrastination, people-pleasing, self-doubt, over-commitment, broken promises and chaos by Steve Chandler

* A commitment is something that you absolutely will do or have done–otherwise it is an intention.

* How to Get Clients: New Pathways to Coaching Prosperity by Steve Chandler

* Daily commitments of time and things that I have absolute control

* What are you creating with your commitments or lack thereof?

* No judgement around what you are or are not committed to
