Motivation using Visualization

[Legendat24]

I know that everyone talks about motivation but I think it's important to touch on over and over again. I think its important to have it right in front of your face.

I find that the more I do the more I want to do. On the other side I find that the less I do the less I want to do. As in anything in life I think that we need to build momentum which allows us to do more things. I started this project about 10 days ago and in all honestly I could have been done by now but I am not. When I work I work solid but starting is the hardest part. After starting we can all build up momentum and push forward. I think a huge key to being motivated in any area is that you have to have a reason behind the motivation. This reason needs to be in front of your face always. If its in the back of your mind you won't remember it. I know I don't.

Along time ago I was on the idea about creating a visualization board but only recently have I actually started doing it. I have three pictures on there. Starting with the baby steps. One motivating me to get girls. One with something to motivate me to work out and another to motivate me to make money. It's something we need to really have in our rooms. If you don't you should because every time I glance at it it reminds me constantly that I should be working towards my goals. This really motivates me and keeps me on track. It's much easier with something visual there to snap me out of not doing anything and just wasting time on Facebook and start working hard. It's just like approach, jumping in the cold pool but then its fine. Just jump.

I have a vison board too, its dope. I have pictures of my dream house, cars, a sexy chick and some other stuff. I also made my backround on my computer a vision board too.

yeah that is awsome man.

For some reason I seem to forget if its not right in front of me. Them when I look at stuff I remember why I do it all and it fills me with a fire to work harder.

I read you post on success barriers and I was wondering if using visualization helps you break through them?

Dude you are writing up some good shit lately, nice job.

And you're right, it's all about that momentum and getting started down the path. It's always the hardest part.

You're right! The hard thing is actually getting started. Like attracts like so if you're stuck in a rut you'll attract more of the same but once you start visualising what you want it slowly builds momentum. Eventually you'll start to move towards the things you visualise.


I wrote a motivation thread in the tips section last months. Here it is.

Yeah I agree. Momentum is key. You can really build on your successes with it. I think utilizing momentum is the key between mediocre success and insane success.
