Motivation.
It’s talked about a lot.
Looked for, sought after.
I get it.
Something we don’t talk about much though is commitment
I think commitment is a big deal.
When we truly commit, motivation can become irrelevant
And last week I was mulling it over..
And I’ve decided for now at least that WHAT we commit with is key.
You see when we Invest what we most value in to our efforts
We do it.
How do you know what you most value?
Usually what stops you from committing in the first place..
But to cut to the chase for most of us it’s one of two things
Time.
Money.
Now some folks will say I don’t value money the most..
To which I’d say great..
Then invest as much money as you CAN in to getting the help, resources and environment that supports you getting the thing you want to achieve
After all..
It’s been proven time and time again that when we put money in to things we get better results..
And the more money the better.. that doesn’t mean the most money – Just what we perceive to be a lot for us..
Now if we don’t like that idea then maybe we value money more than we let on, so can’t possibly use such a scarce resource
Of course there is another reason maybe – but we will cover that down the line
And so then what about time?
Well I have coached people who will spend a lot of money..
Yet TIME. Actually putting time into the doing of something is the hardest thing to commit with..
And no amount of money invested will help if you are unwilling to invest the time in to it…
And so maybe it’s time we really need to start investing into it as we value that a whole lot more
But lastly..
No amount of those two seem to happen if we don’t value ourselves.
And that is the real key.
Seeing that we are worth the time, the effort and the investment.
I get that sometimes we don’t value what we are going after, and getting that right is key
But if we don’t value ourselves we are always last on the list..
And last on the list isn’t getting results.
You are worth the time.
You are worth the investment.
You are worth the effort.
You will be always be your best investment.
And you will always be a great investment for the people you care about.
Because everyone wins when we do
