Excuses

The only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullshit story you keep telling yourself as to why you can’t achieve it.

Jordan Belfort

You are scared of your own success, don’t be!

It is intimidating but it’s worth to put up with the nervous moments.

Why you should love your job

It’s so hard when I have to, and so easy when I want to.

Annie Gottlier

Working for money is not working out at all, it will tear you apart.

Working for your passion, doing what you love, that will work. And it will bring money in the long run, so don’t worry too much, get good at what you love!

Aer you underestimating yourself?

You probably are.

It’s not who you are that holds you back, it’s who you think you’re not.

You will know this feeling: Seeing someone in a successful position, be it actor, musician or manager, and thinking ‘How can he pull that off, I could not, he must know so much more.’

Maybe the person does know much more. But it wasn’t always like that. One day the person knew exactly as much as you did, but decided to go for it anyway. Now see where it has brought other people to just start.

You can achieve what every other human being can achieve. Persistence and Motivation are the keys to success, so wrap your hand around it and get going!

Mindset!

A stumbling block to the pessimist is a stepping stone to the optimist.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Well you could call this quote a classic and although it seems obvious and simple, it is important and profound.

There is the saying that there are no heavy obstacles, just better and worse ways to cope with them.

Obstacles always come with solutions that you can figure out. This process is great and gives you a great reward, a great feeling of satisfaction. So instead of seeing obstacles as something negative, be happy to encounter them and see them as a fun challenge.

Be like a child. If a child has to face some not so cool things (‘Wash the dishes’ to give an example) you can easily convert this task into a fun game. The child then sees the challenge, the chance for achievement, and diggs in. Be like that, think like that!

We’re not finished here!

A man is not finished when he is defeated. He is finished when he quits.

Richard M. Nixon

Don’t back out, keep it up!

Enjoy!

Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.

Talent is not enough

So you are talented? You think you can make it?

I think so too! Just start to wark hard right now and you should be good.

Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.

It’s not about having it all

Be thankful for what you have, you’ll end up having more.

Oprah Winfrey

You are not rich if you have it all, you are rich if you are satisfied with what you have. This is especially true in our modern society in which it is normal for people to have big tvs and drive nice cars.

Appreciate what you’ve got and you would not need to chase so much stuff you don’t need.

Get excited!

A goal should scare you a little, and excite you a lot.

Dr. Joe Vitale

Finding the right goals will do a lot for your motivation, work on that!

Sports motivation!

Somewhere, someone is practicing. When you meet that person on the field, face to face, one on one, he will beat you. Unless that person practicing is you. So run the stairs, crank the corners, hit the wall, and when you feel like giving up, think, is that person giving up?

Some people think you train with your body, but that does not quite cut it. Every body gets tiret during training, even athletes have this problem, it’s natural. That’s when the mind comes in and you have to push yourself beyond known limits.

The mind has to bend the limits the body thinks it has. A strong body with a weak mind won’t train and will get weak over time.

Start to train and train hard, it’s all about the mindset.
