"Motion makes motivation materialize." ~ John Fuhrman
Your company or your business has taken you far from home (or maybe just a few miles away). You're tired, you get to bed and rest up for tomorrow.
For the confrence. For motivational speech after speech.
And it's great! You have fun, meet new people, learn new things! The speakers were wonderful and you feel pumped!
Getting back to work or your office, you're ready to start! You sit at your computer...
And nothing comes. You have motivation, so why isn't this coming easily? You should be shooting to the stars right now, with how you feel!
But you're not moving at all!
Motivational speeches and feelings are great and all, but one thing trumps all the amazing feelings in the world. Better than all the cool talks and meetings.
That is movement!
Take one step, one keystroke, one action. That's all you need! Keep doing that every day. It doesn't have to be big, just a step, a movement.
When you move, when you see yourself getting closer to your goals and dreams, you won't need a speaker to pump you up. You won't need that book full of special sayings to push you forward. Those pretty words put together to make clever phrases won't pull your forward near as much as your own footsteps.
Don't rely on any speeches, books or people. Just step forward, jump forward, get those little actions done!
Just because those things are little doesn't mean they don't matter. Remember, the ripples in a pond start small and grow and grow as they reverberate around even the stillest pond. So make some waves!
(That includes these little motivational segments. Use them as little pearls of wisdom but don't let them just sit. Use them to make the next step. Because anything I have to say here is nothing until you choose to move! So get going!)
Great post! Lets do this together at @souldelas.
