Do you struggle to follow through with your goals or projects? Motivation can quickly fade into procrastination and avoidance when you can conjure up immediate success. But it’s not your fault! Your brain isn’t wired to wait for rewards, and it wants all the success NOW. Our current media culture that features overnight success stories only drives home the false belief that we should be an immediate success.
Successful people don’t become successful overnight - they work on building their skills and talents over years, sometimes decades. In this episode I share why I love Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and Jamie Kern Lima who founded IT Cosmetics (then sold it for over a billion dollars). And I share what you can learn from these success stories so you can keep your momentum, bounce back from failure, and keep your brain on track to reach your goals.
Listen in to learn how consistency is key if you want to achieve your long-term goals and projects. Find out why your mental habits keep you going when times get tough, and why having a strong “why” will help come back after failure.
