75: Why successful people do NOT rely on motivation

Let's Get Uncomfy

Welcome back to the Let’s Get Uncomfy Podcast! I am sure you guys noticed I took a bit of a break, but I am back ready to get my messages out to you. I am so excited for the summer podcast season. My heart is feeling pulled to talk more about relationships this season and connections with people so stay tuned for some amazing upcoming episodes.

So, this week's topic is coming from an Instagram story I posted the other day. In this story, I posted my workout and reminded people to lift heavy, and I got a message saying “I wish I had the time to work out, that is why you have such a great body.”

This is something that I think is super important to discuss because it is so easy to fall into this mindset and be stuck there forever.

Let's clear the air, shall we?

If you see someone with a great body, a great relationship, a great career, a great whatever it is. They are not relying on motivation to get them where they want to be, they are choosing to build strong habits that keep them moving towards their goals every single day. The reality is there is no secret sauce, there is nothing that I have access to that you don’t have access to. You have to just show up for yourself, and everybody who is crushing their dreams and goals is not accomplishing these things because they are more motivated or inspired than you. They are accomplishing those things because they work damn hard, they are consistent, and that they are deciding to show up.

If you are relying on motivation to be miraculously be thrown upon you or overcome you with productivity, you are going to be waiting for forever my friend. So get up, get out there and choose to do one thing every day that puts on on your path for success.
