What do you do to stay motivated? I have a few activities that I do to hopefully.....keepme focused and motivated. Primarily the things I do are as follows:
1) Read the Bible - Need this daily. I love the quote...you are what you eat. If you eat crap, you become crap. When I'm away from the word...bad things happen. When I force feed myself....I am pumped up and focused and keep my mind on the things that are important to me. This keeps me focused, on task and fresh.
2) Working out - I work out almost daily....at least 5 times a week. I really feel that if I'm not working out, then my body is atrophying or just getting blase at best. Even a short work out refreshes me better than a huge triathalete workout.....
3) Life Plan - I have a plan. A real plan....I have a vision as to what my life needs to look like. Ultimately, God is in control and no...I can't control the events that happen over the course of the day. I can, however, point my ship in the direction that it needs to go and let God do the rest.
4) Have a spouse that's on board - My wife and I do a "family plan" and readdress it every year. We do our 1 year, 3, 5 and 10 year goals.....good stuff.
5) Schedule extreme vacations. This means trips to the Arctic Circle, rock climbing in Colorado, boating & fishing with my boys, guys' weekends at the farm....etc....just good refreshing getaway time.
What do you do????? Go hard or go home...
Waking up everyday motivates me... Getting a good night's rest does, too.
