‘Motivation is like bathing, it must be done daily to be effective’.
Someone much more intelligent than me once said that a long time ago but it’s as true now as it was then!
I try really hard to feed my desire for positive motivation daily however some days it just doesn’t happen – life simply gets in the way.
What I have come to realise is that we must be committed to finding motivation in whatever we can. However to keep us going on the days in which motivation alludes us we must develop a determination that leads us to become relentless.
A relentless determination is what gets you out of bed on a rainy cold morning to go to the gym.
A relentless determination is what empowers you to turn down a drink at a social occasion.
A relentless determination is what empowers you to train in your hotel room by yourself with no equipment.
A relentless determination is what one must develop in order to achieve success that is life changing.
I’m not taking about losing 5kg, or watching what you eat, I am talking about the life changing results that see you smash the health and fitness goals of your wildest dreams.
This relentless determination is the stuff that normal everyday people don’t ever imagine. At this level of relentless determination you don’t miss a meal because you slept in. You don’t miss training because your child is sick.
At this level you make excuses that enable you to get to your goal ahead of schedule rather than accept whatever misfortune the day may bring.
If you have made it to this point in the blog let me encourage you to make a commitment to yourself – not me, not your partner or your kids – make a commitment to yourself right now - commit to finding your relentless determination that lies within.
Find it, grab hold of it, nurture it and allow it to propel you to the exact place in life you want to be!!
