1. Give Up The Excuses

As long as you have excuses, you will never have success. In order to be fully committed, it’s important that you let go of the excuses.

Don’t have enough time? 

  • Set your priorities and eliminate tasks ruthlessly.

Don’t know how? 

  • Find a mentor
  • Determine your true purpose.

2. Go From Interested to Committed

There’s a big difference between being interested in success and being committed to succeed.

One is wishful thinking and the other is taking responsibility.

When you just want to succeed, you’ll find excuses to give up. You may blame your boss, your education, your family, and so on.

When you are committed, you’ll take a hundred percent responsibility and work for your dreams with absolute dedication.

3. Know Exactly Why You Want It

Now you know that commitment makes a world of a difference. It’s time to apply this knowledge and understand your motivation.

Why do you want to succeed? Is it for your family? Is it for your children? Or is it to prove that you’re worth something to yourself?

Understanding your WHY will help you reach another level in your life.

Extrinsic Motivation

You are extrinsically motivated when you act or accomplish something for external rewards such as fame, money, praise, and grades.

Extrinsic motivation comes from external situations, such as when you want to receive praise, study for a test, or exercise because you don’t want to look silly or out of shape in front of others.
