You Need A Strong Enough WHY!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You've likely heard this from all of the self-help guru's out there…<\/p>\n

If you're struggling with motivation, it's simply because you don't have a strong enough WHY.<\/p>\n

You see, you need a purpose behind everything that you do. \u00a0Without a purpose or any compelling reason to do something, you simply won't feel motivated to do it.<\/p>\n

Want to make a six figure per year passive income?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Great… but WHY?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

When you ask most people this, they likely don't have any compelling reason to drive them. \u00a0Or if they do have reasons, it's simply not a strong enough motivator for them.<\/p>\n

\"travelOne person might say, “Well, I'd like to make more money so that I can travel more and have more fun.” \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

While that might be a good reason, how strong of a reason is that for you? \u00a0How badly do you want to travel more and have more fun in your life?<\/p>\n

The answer to that depends on how much EMOTION you associate to that reason.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another person might say, “I must make more money so that I can get out of debt and pay my bills this month.”<\/em><\/p>\n

With this reason, the person will likely be more motivated because the reason has more EMOTION associated to it. \u00a0You can tell it's a MUST for the person, not an “I'd like to…”<\/em>\u00a0 This is a more powerful WHY and motivator.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The more REASONS you can have to achieve a goal, the better.<\/p>\n

But the REAL POWER comes down to how POWERFUL, EMOTIONALLY-DRIVEN your reasons and purpose is.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What Drives Human Beings To Do What They Do…<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"painThere's two twin forces that drive human beings to do what they do: \u00a0Pain and Pleasure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Human beings will do almost anything to avoid pain and to gain pleasure. \u00a0This is directly from Tony Robbins<\/a> – he calls it the Pain Pleasure Principle (PPP).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Out of the two, which do you think is more of a motivator for people? \u00a0Pain or Pleasure?<\/p>\n

PAIN!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most people are more driven by the PAIN of potentially losing something, rather than the PLEASURE of potentially gaining something.<\/p>\n

When it comes to your WHY and PURPOSE for achieving your goals, the more pain-inducing reasons you can have, the better.<\/strong>\u00a0 You want to use PAIN as fuel motivate you.<\/p>\n

For example, here's some of the pain-inducing reasons that have motivated me throughout my life:<\/strong><\/p>\n
