You may not be aware that in behind there are couple thing stops you from being motivated.

1. 1. You do not connect yourself to the goals.
   
2. Only a few of us really ask a question: Is that what I really want?  Take your head into the reason why you do and what you do. Keep asking yourself, like did I choose my own goals? Is there something else I feel more connected to? When we have the emotional connection to that idea, we can then insert ourselves into it.

2. You reward yourself for everything.

 It is good that you start with a reward system, but you are not firm with yourself. If you procrastinate, but you still reward yourself. An excellent reward system has to be positive rewards and negative punishment. Keep yourself in check.

1. 3. You lack independence.
2. Many unmotivated people feel like they are being put into the driver seat. Freedom of choice is essential for building your motivation. 
4. 4. You stay in bed. Laying down too much ruin your motivation. Don’t work in bed.
6. 5. You are indecisive about the future. It is like jumping straight in the unknown. Instead, you should define your goal, laying out the plan about the future. So that you can make that specific dream into reality.
8. 6. You repeat past mistakes. You are struggling with the same problem, and you don’t feel like you are improving. Change your perspective and try something different. Find another way around it.
10. 7. You are exclusively Extrinsic. In fact, the best motivation around you is intrinsic motivation. Which are inner passions, beliefs, and values. If you stay disciplined, you will get to your goal eventually . However, most people are motivated by extrinsic, like praise or admiration. 

How do you keep motivating yourself? Comment below.

Begin to Turn Your Dream into Reality Even When You Are In Pandemic.

“Ideas are a dime a dozen. The person who puts them into action is priceless.” You don’t have to invent antigravity or faster than light travel. You must be different in some way. Most different products and services are just a small twist on an old idea. But they are different. Get ruthless about trying something different.

Be first or Be different. If you don’t change, then you can’t be different.  Start an industry or change an industry. Do not merely copy an industry. The big slice of cake goes to those who create – the crumbs go to those who copy. The skill with the maximum shelf-life is creativity. 

Is your idea weird enough? Trust your crazy ideas! Trust your instinct. Trust that and dream! “People who think they are crazy enough to change the world are the ones that do.” Apple computer. Do you have the guts to throw out today’s winning product when you get a better idea?

1. Good Ideas are not adopted automatically. They must be driven into practice with courageous patience. Before the beginning of exceptional brilliance, there must be chaos. “Be all you can be!” From chaos comes order. If we wish to make a new world, we have the material handy. The first one, too, we made out of chaos.

Before a brilliant person begins something great, they must look foolish in the crowd. How do you find an area in which to make you succeed? Seek out chaos and bring order to it. Master the chaos that controls our world.

In the world 97% of people either dead or dead broken by the age of 85.
Only 3 % of people are success. Becoming a successful entrepreneur is not difficult but it is different.

A suggestion is to find out what 97% people are doing and do the complete opposite.
Conventional wisdom is almost always wrong. For example, you observe what most people are doing in networking function, and then do the opposite, thats how you don’t follow the conventional wisdom.

Typical dictionary Definition of networking( Conventional Wisdom):
The exchange of information or Services among individuals, groups or institutions. To Cultivate productive relationships for employment or business.
Whats wrong with this definition ?

Most people go with wrong approach, they are aims at taking. Networking not about employment or make your business. 99% of the people going to the event, they are not your ideal client. They are entrepreneur who struggles with their business by hoping to get new clients to pay their bills. The approach of going there hoping to get some business is failure. If you don’t have enough customers, you don’t have networking problem, you have marketing problem. Imagine, if you were making more money than you ever imagined than you had time for, how often would you still go to networking events?

You focus on attractions, that is marketing.

New Definition :
Networking is any activities that increase the value of your network or any value you contribute into it.
You only go to the networking event unless you are a speaker or there’s a speaker that you want to see or learn.
